But it seems that for one woman it went horribly wrong, as horrified people online reckon her bizarre glow looks like she has ””.
The jaw-dropping makeover was posted online by Kaitlyn Kurtis, from , – and brutal social media users didn't hold back with their savage comments.
While using a special mitt is a must when – unless you want to look like you've just been digging the ground all day long – the young blonde decided to skip the crucial step.
Part one of her epic tan disaster saw Kaitlyn squeeze the directly into her hands, before she generously applied the solution all over her face and the décolleté area.

Although it appeared she hadn't yet washed the mousse off, letting it ”marinate”, people were not sure she'd be left with a stunning glow.
Styling her mega long bleached locks, Kaitlyn left a whopping 13.2million viewers horrified with the ”patchy” and ”muddy” look on her body.

”Idk my has never looked like I had liver failure,” wrote a fellow beauty lover.
”why does it look like you just woke up in a ditch?” someone else chimed in.
”girl are you like alive?” another wondered.
”what self tanner is this? just so I can make sure I don’t use it,” a fourth asked.
”Babe... what is this,” a social media user was lost for words.
Can you tan with fake tan on?
The short answer to this is, yes, .
Fake tan will not stop you getting a natural tan, it will simply act as an extra layer between your skin and the sun.
The reason for this is that having fake tan on doesn't stop from penetrating your skin.
But, it is important for you to know that applying is not an alternative to sun protection and you still need to wear extra protection.
Fake tan doesn't offer any protection from UV rays so if you are in the sun you still need to applyregularly.
