Nope. I use it almost everyday. Did you shave before hand? I typically shave, put lotion on my feet, ankles, knees, elbows (any place the skin is thinner) and I get a great result. I also use the foam so it is easier to control.

I have never used it but have been curious. I'm sooo pale and I'm afraid the slightest inconsistency in shade will show more because of that. I might buy it, use it on a certain area for a few days and see what color it turns and how well it blends.
Its such a small amount of color that I never got streaks. Plus if you miss a spot one day you're likely to catch it the next time so the overall effect is much more even than using a stronger self tanner.
I love that lotion. I use it in the summer a lot, to make myself even more tan than I already am. In the winter, I usually just accept the pale. I do think it kind of smells gross- like self tanner- but for some reason, H LOVES the smell. every time I use it, he always tries to come up behind me and sniff my shoulder or something... lol
I'm really pale and even the fair skin formula is sometimes too dark for me. I usually mix it with regular lotion so I can gradually increase the amount of color. I think the extra moisturizer helps to distribute the color more evenly and makes it look more natural.
I used to use it all the time. I actually went to the medium/dark shades after the light didn't do much for me (not saying you should do that, just saying I think the light should be fine. I'm pale but I'm not as fair as you). But the smell was horrid. Horrid. I don't use it anymore and haven't in a year or so. Maybe they've improved the smell since then.
