Organic skin care: Fake tan can leave legs in a state

Fans of organic skin care should take steps to avoid streaky legs caused by poorly-applied fake tan, according to one newspaper.

The Daily Mail reported on the plight of consumers who are falling foul of the tell-tale signs of fake tan disasters and said they can be avoided by taking pride in its application.

It stated: "The idea of a swift touch of tan is just so tempting. But we all know the reality is somewhat different. You follow the instructions. You remember to wash your hands... [but] when you wake up you've been Tango'd."

The newspaper added that at this time of year, people can become fed up with their pasty looking legs and opt to treat themselves to fake tan without thinking about the consequences.

Rachel Stevens recently told the Sun that she felt better after using less fake tan after finishing her time on Strictly Come Dancing and has now embraced a more natural look.
