Advantages: Lovely colour

Disadvantages: Messy

I purchased the fake bake self tanning spray last week after using fake bakes lotion for over 3 years. I have trust in fake bake and decided i wanted to try something new, as much as I love the lotion it doesn't go dark enough for me. I purchased the spray tan on ebay as I found a better price because it can be quite expensive, i loved the look of the gold can.
So the day before using the spray tan I exfoliated and moisterized. The next day I decided to give it a go, i found it quite awkward for most parts of my body to get a good distance away from my skin and spray evenly, so I had help from my partner. It was very difficult to see where it had been sprayed so he went over the same area twice without letting the first coat dry which it states on the can, so i ended up with the tan dripping down me making it look streaky. I was terrified i was going to look patchy and uneven once it had dried, I decided to leave it on for just over 4 hours and then shower. A lot of the colour came away, and i was very surprised when i stepped out the shower, apart from a few streaks on my legs the tan was even and a lovely golden brown, and it hadnt gone darker on my elbows and dry areas like most fake tans. The colour lasted about a week and didn't look patchy whilst fading, the only issue was my neck was left brown whereas the rest of my body was a lighter colour.
I'm going to have another attempt at using it again tomorrow ensuring i leave areas to dry before spraying over them for a second coat.
I have to add its better to do it in the shower as it makes such a mess, my white bathroom ended up with a brown bath and tiles which had to be cleaned straight away afterwards.

Summary: A good fake tan if applied properly, not to time consuming to apply, really like the colour
