DO...

...test out a patch before you put self-tanner on your whole body.

Here's the thing. We're all a little different, so what works on one girl doesn't on another. It's the same thing with self tanners, most of which contain a color-changing chemical called dihydroxyacetone (DHA). A small amount on one girl is too much on someone else. Go for a brand with a lower percentage of DHA like L'Oreal Paris Sublime Bronze One Day ($10.49) so you can layer a natural look and not look too dark. Blake Lively glows beautifully!
