Kazzy’s Query:
Hi, Great site!! I’m looking for a (good) fake tan that goes on well, doesn’t streak and isn’t orange looking. I’ve tried Johnsons Holiday Sun and Nivia Sun but didnt really notice a difference. I’m pale and need a good tan for summer, Pleeeese can you help??

The Right Brain’s Reply:
Kazzy, Finding the right self tanner requires a bit of trial and error. As we posted in the past, all self tanners use the same active ingredient DHA. However, the formulation base that the DHA is put into can affect how well it tans your skin and what the final color looks like. For our money, we’d try the Olay Touch of Sun products because we know that the parent company (P&G) puts a lot of money into their Research and Development and they tend to have superior technology. But there’s really know way to know for sure until you try it for yourself.
