Hiya all!!

This is more of a personal question rather than professional as im not trained in tanning. However, i live in my fake tan and have done since i was 15 with minimal problems!

recently tho, my tan has been starting to come off in the crooks of my arms - but remaining on the rest of my arms! Quite unsightly as you can imagine!! Why would this be? I am pregnant (39weeks) but have noticed this problem before.
Do you think it could be hormonal? Or something else?

Thanx Geeks!!!!
 
Could possibly be hormones, maybe making you sweat more in this area which would make the tan come off. Have you noticed this when not pregnant?
Good luck with the baby when he/she arrives, won't be long now xx
 
I get this too, although thats because I get mild eczema in this area so I scratch it alot so the tan comes off!
So yea..the only thing I can think of is that maybe you are sweating more in this area?!
 
i did think of sweating / hormones so prob just that! I have noticed it before being pregnant but i think i was using a cheaper tan then!!!

Thanx!!
 
Hiya!!

This is just something that happends to some people! (i get it!!) Its to do with the sweat glands, I used to go over that area twice but didnt make any difference. The only thing you can do which is what i have to do now is get the tan in a can in he same brand and when that area starts to fade, just spray over.
