But people in the comments were more distracted by her fake tan disaster on her hands[/caption]
“I’ve got two hours to get ready,” she said, as she got started on her transformation.
“That’s like hair, make-up, like everything.”
As she had “quite a long day” ahead of her, she needed to make the make-up last.
And being recently engaged herself, Chloe said it’s made her appreciate weddings even more.
“I just love weddings, especially even more now while I’m getting married myself because I like to like look at all the inspo, like the dress and everything.
“It’s just so exciting!”
While people were quick to thank Chloe for sharing her recommended beauty products, others were more than a little distracted by her hands.
Chloe even addressed it in the video, as she said: “Some of you might have by now noticed, there was definitely an accident with my hands.
“It’s giving a four-year-old has done my fake tan!”
Despite her remarks, Chloe was almost immediately targeted in the comments section about the patchy, orange tan on her hands.
“Please tell me that’s going to wash off your hands??!!” one person pleaded.
With Chloe replying: “I tried, wouldn’t come off!”
Some then offered their top tips to get the tan off, with toothpaste, hairspray, washing up liquid and lemon juice all among the recommendations – as well as “Rose and caramel tan remover”.
“Aldi’s fake tan remover is great for that,” someone else added.
“With a brush softens it!”
“No hate but your hands look so bad,” another said.
Fake Tan Lovers Guide to Applying it Streak-Free
Here’s Fabulous ultimate guide to a flawless, streak-free fake tan that will leave you looking like you’ve just stepped off the beach…
Preparation is Key
A streak-free tan starts with proper skin prep. Exfoliate your skin thoroughly 24 hours before application. Focus on rough areas like elbows, knees and ankles to ensure an even canvas. Opt for an exfoliator with natural ingredients to avoid irritation.
Hydration Station
Moisturise your entire body right after exfoliating, but pay extra attention to dry patches. On the day of tanning, only apply a light, oil-free moisturiser to these areas a few hours before you plan to tan. This prevents the tan from clinging to dry spots and developing unevenly.
Formulate, Don’t Hate
Selecting the right fake tan product can make all the difference. Mousse formulas are easiest to apply and blend. Tanning drops can be added to your regular face moisturiser to match your face with your body.
Application O’Clock
Using a tanning mitt is non-negotiable for an even application. Dispense a small amount of product onto the mitt and apply in long, sweeping motions. Start from your ankles and work your way up to avoid creases. Apply sparingly on joints and use a fluffy make-up brush for your hands and feet.
Post-Tan Care
Once you’ve applied your tan, allow it to dry completely before dressing. Loose, dark clothing is best to avoid transferring colour. Avoid water and sweat for at least six to eight hours while the tan develops. After your first rinse, pat your skin dry gently and moisturise daily to prolong your tan.
With someone else adding: “I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought that!”
“Chloe! The hands!” another gasped.
To which she replied “YOLO”.
“I can’t believe the people on this app. ever heard of ‘if you ain’t got anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all’ ???” someone else said.
“Just scroll on if you’re bothered!”
“Wash your hands with a gritty body scrub or even a tiny bit of soap powder, it gets the fake tan off,” another recommended.
