Well, everyone knows that I'm pretty pastey white. So, with spring here, and summer fast approaching I decided to try the spray tan thing. I like the results on my legs, arms, neck and face, but for the inner thighs, boobs, belly, spray tanning left a lot to be desired. I can't be in the sun, or tanning beds due to a melanoma risk, and I'm going through a series of dermatology appts for mole removal.

Guess what, excess skin does not look any better tan than it does pastey white. I kind of resembled an 80 yr old Oompa Loompa. My boobs look like they've been tie-dyed, and my stretch marks are now glowing white.

John found it quite comical. It's worn off to some extent, but I still have funky coloring around my ankles and heels. I guess when I was rubbing it in, I didn't think about it rubbing off on my feet.

As long as I wear regular shoes, I look okay, but until the stuff on my feet fades, it's no flip flops or open shoes. I did this because of the couple of spring dresses and several pairs shorts/crop pants that I recently purchased, and I really want to wear them.

I'm not sure if you meant that to be funny but I'm dying here!

Totally meant to cause laughter. Believe me, the next day after the color fully developed, my husband and I had a good chuckle with me standing stark naked in front of the bathroom mirror. He was singing the Oompa Loompa song, and asking why he couldn't find the Golden Egg. It was quite comical.

Thankfully, it's toned down considerably, and I don't look orange anymore. I think I applied too much. I like the bronze look, and will probably do it again just not as heavy.

Have you ever considered a Mystic Tan? I do that sometimes for a special event - a nice healthy glow for us pastey girls. (ummm...that didn't sound very good. I was talking about color, nothing else! :sad0:)

"What do you get when you get a spray tan, tye dyed boobies, oh man! Oompa Loompa doobeldy doo I have a simple message for you..." So funny Tiff!
