FAQs
How to take fake tan precautions?
If you're wanting to avoid tanning your floor by accident instead of yourself, be sure to stand on an old towel as you're tanning. That way, you're protecting your flooring from stains from your St Mortiz fake tan!
Wanting to stop your hands from turning orange? Fake tan gloves might be the best idea. Or, moisturise the dry spots on your hands - so, your knuckles, your wrists, in between your fingers and the sides of your hands.
But, if worse comes to worst, a fake tan remover can come to the rescue! Simply apply some of this on that stubborn tan and you'll see it come off in no time at all.
