I can't get on with fake tan at all - it always goes smeary
YES! Even the moisturiser stuff goes streaky on me. 
Or maybe it's just cos I'm looking for them too much 
Should you only look at fake tan while squinting?

ahhh... you're not doing it right... a) bath, exfoliate, shave, exfoliate,
b) moisturise everywhere... give it an hour or two to sink in
c) uber moisturise knees, elbows, anywhere else with dry skin,
d) with latex gloves on apply liberally all over apart from knees and elbows
e) with a cotton bud swipe backs of knees
f) with just a hint of tan residue on gloves... lightly glide over knees & elbows.
e) then slide down each glove & with the other hand wipe down the backs of hands.
g) take off gloves
f) with cotton buds wipe from hairline (on face)... and from eyebrows.
then... .just do the sumo walk around the house for a couple of hours... not touching anything

its not complicated... shave legs (cos that exfoliate)... moisturise legs & allow it sink in. re moisurise knees... then put on gloves & apply tan... apart from knees. Swipe over knees with just the residue on the gloves (cos knees uber absorb tan)...
job done!

I just won't wash - same effect
Olly's post through out BB has been very fair and not bias I have enjoyed reading all of them
I've had some right fake tan disasters in the past. My nugget of wisdom, do not apply the same day you are due to present an award on stage in front of glaring lights, cameras and 1200 people There's still one floating about of me in a knee length dress. Arms, neck and decolletage fine, but legs look like I've got some kind of foreign disease
Another good tip, if you have ended up looking like streaky bacon, the quick way to remove it is to use an exfoliating puff (the wiry ones)

I've only tried fake tan once. Well, it wasn't even proper fake tan, just the "slow build up" moisturiser stuff.
Slow build up, my arse! I am now back to embracing my pale but interesting look

I'm too scared to try the proper stuff for fear of looking tangoed

Do people actually bother to do this, or am I just the laziest person ever?! I could never be bothered with all that faffing about Reference:

Me neither. No wonder the one and only time I tried it my legs looked like somrthing unimagineable. My daughter gave me the Johnsons stuff the night before our holiday and told me it was 'virtually' impossible to mess up. I don't suppose it's a great idea to apply it just before bed and half cut 
I accidentally tanned my face and hands, once, with some 'moisturiser' that my daughter left lying around.

My son did that the other week, he picked up the Dove bottle instead of the Cocoa Butter. Cos he's dark-skinned anyway it looked right funny! He wasn't impressed 
Maybe I should warn my son about the tanning moisturiser? Just in case? Maybe
Ducky, take it from someone who knows, I'd strongly advise it. The poor kid looked like Floella Benjamin
