Looking for Answers about Faux Tan Sunless Tanner?

I have acne prone skin as well and I mix a bit of the self tanner into my regular moisturizing cream every 2-3 times I apply it to my body. It does not make me break out and it doesn't feel oily or heavy. It dries quickly and I wash it off after an hour or two and moisturize again. To make my face match my body a bit better I use the faux tan all over the face color.

I have acne prone and sensitive skin. I was worried that using this product would break my skin out. I used it on my face and it has yet to cause me any acne. I don't think it is clogging my pores or anything. It goes on great and I have no problems with it. I hope it works out for you too.

GIANNA 11, THERE IS A FAUX TANNER FOR YOUR FACE ALREADY AS WELL AS A TINTED MOISTUREIZER. YOU COULD ACTUALLY CREATE A BRONZER/TAN LOOK FOR JUST YOU! JUST B.E.COME YOUR OWN MIXOLOGIST IT'S WHAT I DO FOR MY FOUNDATION. I PUT IT ALL IN AN OLD LABEL LITTLE RARE MINERALS CONTAINER. CAN TAKE IT ANYWHERE. JUST REMEMBER TO WRITE DOWN YOUR PERSONAL CONCOCTION :)

I use the Faux Tan on my face without any problems. I also have acne prone skin. Make sure to use a small amount and blend it well. Don't put it on your skin while it is broke out. The zits will appear darker than the rest than the rest of your face. I learned this the hard way. ;)

Google the product. QVC has a video that shows you how to use a brush to apply it. It gets really dark if you use your hands to apply and if you use a brush to apply it in circular motions, it's less mess and looks streak free once your tan develops :) Don't forget to wash it off after about 8 hours. I normally apply it at night, shower in the morning and what's left is your tan!

I got the brush that was previewed on QVC and if you do not have a brush, you can apply this with gloves or bare hand but when you apply the product apply very quickly and wash your hands immediately after !! :) good luck it's a great product !

Apply like loation but small sections at a time. Start fom the top of your body and work down to your legs.

Do one section of your body at a time due to how fast the product dries. I start with my neck and work down. Rub in quickly but rub it in completely until it is all absorbed and there are no streaks. You can never rub too much. It also helps support your circulation! =) You may have to apply it a few different times until you get your desired look. Some need more some need less. Be SURE to exfoliate your whole body prior to application though. I usually shower at night and exfoliate, apply the product and the next morning shower again and it looks perfect! Be careful around feet, hands, knees and elbows..I use a different tanner for my feet and hands. One that sprays. Wash your hands very well after application. Enjoy!

I put it all the way up my neck, otherwise it might look funny... mix it with a quick absorbing body moisturizer.

You can use it on your face if you want! Didn't make my sensitive skin break out at all! Just go lightly. Or I often go up to my neck and use BE's faux tan all over face color to make sure my face matches my body.

I love this stuff bc it looks so natural!! I'm blonde/blue and pretty light with a smattering of freckles. I'll spread this all the way up my neck to just below my chin but I use a light hand and a little bit of Faux mixed with a little lotion (body lotion, face lotion, either one will work). That way you get a much more natural look, like you hung out at the beach all day instead of rubbed a bunch of self tanner all over :-) Good luck!

ALWAYS USE SUNSCREEN!!! and yes you can mix this with a sunscreen.

Oh yes for SURE!! Absolutely use sunscreen. No reaction at all (for me anyway) I live in San Diego, and use both the Faux and sunscreen all the time :)

Definitely exfoliate and moisturize before using Faux! Otherwise it'll look bad -color will not be even at all. I've even mixed Faux with lotion and it worked great (like during the week after my shower, instead of just applying lotion to my legs i'll add a little Faux...it just keeps up the glow that much longer!) You can use your bare hands, gloved hands (powder-free gloves only! And maybe latex-free if you have a latex allergy) or the brush. I prefer using my bare hands most of the time...just make sure you do a smallish area (ie 1 leg at a time) and wash and exfoliate your hands in between so you don't tan your palms. I LOVE the brush that came with the Faux set that Leslie sells on the Q, but it seems to use a lot more product when you use the brush. However, I'll use the brush to buff my skin after I've applied Faux everywhere (depending on how lazy I feel that day lol!) Good luck!

Oleta, my skin is a little on the dry side too but it is VERY important to exfoliate and moisturize before you use Faux Tan. If you don't you'll end up dissatisfied w/ the results. I would recommend applying lotion like crazy for a few days before you plan to use Faux. (like several times per day). You'll end up with a gorgeous, true-color glow! You can also mix some Faux in your palm with a little bit of your normal lotion and apply that way :) apply with your hands but make sure you do smallish areas (ie one leg at a time) and wash/exfoliate so you don't tan your palms! Any age spots, vericose veins, etc will look softened and not quite so apparent. This is a combo faux tan and bronzer, so you'll see immediate color, but when you shower that bronzer will rinse off and you'll be left with your gorgeous glow! (I know some gals see color going down the drain and think it doesn't work) My mom turned me onto this product several years ago and I've never used anything else since! (I'm 37 and my mom is in her 60s so it's definitely great for Gorgeous Gals of all ages!) Good luck!! :)

I apply it a few times a week, just once my tan starts to fade. One bottle will last me about 3 months
