Recommend your bottle tan

I'm headed to a big wedding next week and I just realized how pale my arms, especially, are. I mean, translucent pale and my veins are so freakin' bright green!

So, I wanted something that would just tone that down a bit - I don't want to be orange or splotchy and I don't want to make it a big ordeal either (because I know I have to do my neck and face as well). Is this possible?!

I've tried so many and I always look streaked, I think it's because I am so pasty white to begin with!  That being said, I think I had the best luck with jergens. You can get it at target or any drugstore.

Thank you! I think I will be testing this out this week!

I've had good luck with the Jergens natural glow lotion.  You have to use it every day and it builds up the tan gradually--but it will defintely tone down the whiteness and you won't look streaky or orange.

I use Tan Towels and I'm pretty happy with them.  Although, it takes about 2 days for the color to show up on me instead of the 6 hours or so it says on the package.  I'm a pretty unexperienced self tanner and I've never had streaks with the tan towels.

I've never heard of Tan Towels - interesting! Thanks again!

I did the Jergens natural glow as well and liked it.

I get them on amazon but I think they sell them at sephora.

One of my co-workers uses Coppertone regularly and surprisingly she has the most beautiful looking tan from it.

I've used Jergens before and it is ok.  More recently, but still probably at least 2 or so years ago, I used Dove something or other (I don't remember what it was called, but it was in a goldish colored bottle).  I liked the Dove one a lot.
