How to reapply another coat of fake tan without patchiness?

I've been using fake tanners for about 4 years now yet I've never mastered how to reapply the tan "2-3 days after applying the initial tan." It seems that my body doesn't exfoliate its own skin cells evenly, which causes the patchiness during the second application. Normally, I have to exfoliate my whole body and start from scratch about every week.

Is it possible to apply a fake tan every few days without having to start over every week or so? Any tips in doing this? Thanks!

    I would suggest trying an exfoliator made specifically for Sunless tanning - there are a few on the market and can usually be picked up at your nearest Tanning Studio - I think that the VersaSpa exfoliator works really well - it works with pineapple enzymes (not a harsh scrub) - so it breaks down the dead skin cells on the surface really gently - you won't get that patchy effect. If you use a product like that once per week about 2-3 days after your sunless application, it should help keep your skin tone more even and a better surface when you reapply. HTH!

    A bronzer is the suited thank you to flow, yet be careful the type you notice it. once you get a tan, you will oftentimes word it the main on your cheekbones and the bridge of your nostril. once you notice bronzer, notice it with an excellent brush to those components basically. in case you placed it throughout your face it could finally end up looking face or maybe somewhat unusual. A bronzing powder, utilized effectively, can spotlight your cheek bones and not basically make you look tanned, yet make your complete face look greater powerful and greater shiny. yet another tip: try utilising bronze colored eye shadow. purchase an eye fixed shadow featuring 3 hues - a delicate bronze, a darker bronze, and a white/beige color. notice the sunshine bronze on your complete lid. Then, notice the dark bronze interior the crease of your eye. finally, use the lightest color ultimate decrease than your eye brow, and close on your tear duct section (the spot between the corner of your eye and the bridge of your nostril). finally, in case you placed highlights on your hair, it helps the "solar kissed" look by way of making your pores and skin seem somewhat darker in assessment on your hair. wish this helps!
