Hi lovely ladies, a good friend of mine is getting married towards the end of March and wants to get a fake tan to cover any pesky strap marks and even everything out before donning the white dress. Neither of us have a clue about such things, does she go for get-naked spray-tan, or a self applied aerosol number, or a cream to be rubbed in?
What are you experiences, good and bad. She has fairly pale skin and pretty sensitive so will definately need at least one trial run beforehand.
Apologies if this has been asked before, feel free to point me in the direction of previous posts on the topic.

For a wedding, I'd recommend a professional salon (airbrush) spray tan. There are too many things that could go wrong with an at-home application before her wedding day (possible patchiness, uneven colour, too light or dark, or worst case scenario looking orange, ending up with orange palms, or having it rub off on the dress).
A professionally sprayed on tan should be matched to her skin tone, will be done properly, should last for days and shouldn't turn patchy or rub off. I don't know what area you're in, but you can use this link to search for qualified spray tan professionals by using the drop down menu under "any service" and selecting spray tan. It'll show all the qualified spray tan professionals that have registered on this website in NZ. Hope it helps.

This BR article from a while back might also be helpful, and there are a few forum post, this one looks like its one of the most recent. There are others that date back to almost 4 years ago, to read these, pop the words 'fake tan' in the search box (next to the Rewards Vault button at the top of the page) and you'll be able to scroll through what's on BR.
DEF Bondi Sands for DIY but i'm with everyone else, definitely go for a professional sprayed on fake tan but do a test run first so she knows what to expect and how many days before she'll want to go for the perfect tan. She can then use something like Benefit Hoola Fake tan to instantly glow it up a little on the day if need be
I've always had bad luck with professional spray tans - still always streaky or patchy. I used to go to a place that had a spray booth - so the machine sprayed you not a person and it was the best thing ever! But then they closed down. I've been so tempted to buy a booth myself as it was that good but I don't have a spare $10,000 lying around to purchase one. No one near me has one - not sure where in New Zealand does - but I'd check your area and see as the results were great. You pat yourself off after which takes a little practice so I'd recommend a few visits prior to master this and to try the different tan colours.
