Try the St Tropez Bronzing mist! It's brill!

It give quite a light shade so if it doesn't help to blend it you can apply it again!
It's dead easy to apply aswell!!

HTH

Is there somewhere you could go and have another tan, somewhere with a good reputation, as another spray may even out the fade.

I have resprayed clients with a not so natural fade and when you spray correctly you can even it out, think of a decorator putting a second coat of paint on a dodgy wall!

To get rid of the tan altogether, have you tried exfoliating? Don't know if any one else has suggested this but it definatley worked for me.

Hiya

Get your legs waxed hun that'll shift it for sure. Dermalogica do a lovely fake tan thats nice and light and it goes on a lovely bronze shade so you can put it on and go out looking brown. I have found that spray tans really dry my skin out and i end up snakey too, so i only hav e one now and then now and stick to my dermalogica tan.
