- It's not botox honey, it's a tan!
(upbeat music)
Hi Buzzfeed, I am Jules Von Hep;
Global celebrity spraytan artist.
Yes, that's a job.
And I'm a founder of tanning brand, Isle of Paradise.
Today, you're gonna be taught a very special lesson
in how to correct tanning lines.
So for your at-home tan corrective kit, you will need...
A plate.
Some tanning mousse.
A fluffy brush.
A squeezy sponge.
A tanning primer.
And some of your favorite self-tan water.
So today, I've got two models;
they've fallen asleep under the sun.
And they've got bad tan lines.
I'm going to show you how to use self-tan to cover this up.
Right!
- Hi, I'm Olivia.
- My name is Michelle Par.
- And I'm here to get all my tan lines covered.
- And I am here today to gey my tans evened out.
- I do run outside almost everyday,
so that has caused a major tanline to happen.
- I went snorkeling one day, and you know when you snorkel,
your whole back shows.
I did not apply as much sunscreen as I should've.
- My tan lines are basically both in the center
of my collarbones.
- After I snorkeled, I just saw a very white tan mark.
And it's just like a big triangle right on my back.
- And then I also have a little scoop.
Bonus tan line.
- My expectation for today, is to get this evened out.
- So I think my spray tan expectation for today,
is just that the lines will magically disappear.
Let's get tanning.
(tuba music)
- Are you ready?
- Ooh
Oh.
That was bad.
And you're so nice and cute.
But your tan line is so bad.
Alright the back is even worse.
- I feel like I just broke his heart.
- Do you think you can fix it?
- Yes, I can fix it.
- You have to.
Okay, you have to.
This is bad.
- How far does it go?
You know what babes?
You are in safe hands, I'm gonna look after you.
We're gonna even this all out;
that you're gonna skip out in the end.
- Amazing.
- Okay well, I got some work.
(nervous chuckles)
- We're gonna add some tanning primer to your skin.
This is going to lower the pH,
but it means that the tan is gonna sink in better.
- Refreshing.
- Yeah, refreshing.
This is like, yes.
- I feel like summer.
- So with tan lines like this,
you've gotta be super intricate
because we have thin marks here and thick marks here.
You're right though, it is a perfect triangle.
- It is.
- Oh perfect, thanks.
(laughs)
I didn't even have to ask.
I'm pumping on a mousse onto the plate,
and we're gonna patch it all at once.
- Great.
- So I'm taking a much more intricate, finer sponge.
And dabbing it in the mouse.
We are going again; okay.
- How many different shades would you say that you have?
- We have three shades within the line,
but each shade reacts with your skin tone.
It all blends together.
This is pretty much exhibit A of why I don't snorkel,
but what did you see while you were snorkeling?
- Nemo.
- Oh, how is he?
I haven't seen him for a while.
- Great.
- Do you have like a tanning dream?
Like someone you could tan?
- Ah, I'd love to tan Michelle Obama.
- Or how would I have fixed this?
'Cause I got the same one two years ago.
- Let's be honest, option A would be buy a new bathing suit.
- How long does this process usually take you?
- I mean it depends on the severity of the tan line.
But literally you can have this done and down
within half an hour.
Getting a friend to help you with this.
This is super easy to do,
you just need a little bit a patience.
So next we're gonna be applying a tanning water,
one shade up from the area I have just applied
the tanning mousse.
The tanning water is going to mask over even more
the triangle of death.
- Okay, thank you.
(upbeat music)
- This is so nice.
(laughs)
- Now if your tanning at home,
you could just leave this as is.
Or if you're an extra, like me, let's buff and blend.
And especially around the insides of your arms.
So what you need to do now, is leave the tan to develop,
for four to six hours.
Don't get wet, don't sweat.
Don't spray any fragrance onto your skin.
If you're using dry shampoo or anything,
just make sure you put a top on before.
You can either sleep in it tonight,
or you can shower before bed.
- Okay.
- Personally, I'd sleep in it for as long as I can.
- Hugging people?
No hugging?
- High fives!
- And this will last about a week.
And wear your SPF.
- SPF.
- Thank you so much.
- I'm about to cry; it's okay.
Right my love, I wish you the best.
Go forth, and be backless.
- Alright, bye.
- Bye.
- My back should be all evened out by now.
- Oh my god you guys!
I just woke up and look, like.
It's gone!
- Oh wow, I don't see it.
- Do you see it?
I don't see it.
- I think I'm happy to say that,
I can go out with a tank top now.
- It's like miles better than it was before.
It's crazy, like I didn't know this was possible.
- I can't believe that it worked,
because it honestly seemed impossible.
- And also I have this, like amazing glow.
- What I learned is don't go snorkeling
unless you wear waterproof sunscreen.
Thank you Jules.
