Spray tan on patchy skin

Hi Guys,

i have suffered from tinea versicolor and i am now left with the patchy skin. It has faded quite alot now.

I used a spray tan out of the bottle and once i had a shower the tan had faded patchy on the places that i had the previous tinea.

I have been exfolaiting my skin nearly everyday to try and get my skin to be even.

My wedding is in november and i really want to get a spray tan as i am too scared to go to the solarium now. Plus they look really good.
Whats your thoughts on this problem


Does anyone know what i can do to stop it fading in patches.
I havent done one for nearly 4 weeks now. So i might try again in august as i have a hens night.

Do you think i should go to the solarium instead?

Re: Spray tan on patchy skin

I really don't think that the affected area will tan "evenly" with either. Is the side you're talking about going to be revealed by your gown at the ceremony or swim attire whilst on your nuptial holiday? If it will be revealed to noone other than the lucky bloke you're betrothed to, then worry not, love. Probably not the answer you were hoping for, but I'd recommend some more concealing attire if it is extremely noticeable and it bothers you. Either way, you are going make a beautiful bride and everything will be just fine. Hope this helps! Good luck! -Your distant cousin from across The Pond, Mr. Belvedere

Re: Spray tan on patchy skin

I've used corrective cosmetic makeup for folks in with your deliema... the spray tanning formula doesnt cover the light areas and only darkens the tannable areas (is tannable a word). Look for a makeup artist for a custom blended shade thats right for you and enjoy your wedding!!! Hope i've helped!! :)

Re: Spray tan on patchy skin

You might ask the person to try using a pre-tan prep first. Not sure if this will work or not. But I would try it now long before you wedding just to see.

Re: Spray tan on patchy skin

You could even ask the spray tech to use a non dha bronzer/show/competition tan solution

if you have a makeup artist doing your makeup ask to see if they can use a makeup'setter/sealer' on the areas of your sprayed skin that will be in contact with your dress/gown to prevent bronzer bleeding...

just sme thoughts...
