You’ve been fake tanning wrong – I compared using a glove with a mitt and the results are astounding
DO you apply fake tan with a mitt? You may want to change your ways.
Tanning-obsessed twins Victoria and Jacqui Hondrou uploaded a video raving about using a glove instead – and the difference in the end result was astounding.
They uploaded a video to their @hondroutwins account saying: “GLOVE VS MITT COMPARISON.
“Holy moly the DIFFERENCE!! WOW.”
The Aussie twins first fake tanned half of their body using a medical glove.
On their account, the twins explained: “As you can see the glove doesn’t absorb any tan, unlike the mitt.”

They then applied fake tan with a mitt to their other leg and said: “See the first layer with a mitt was nowhere near the glove.
“We are applying a second layer and these are the results.”
They showed each leg side by side, and the “glove leg” was far darker.
Next up they did their arms, and said: “We found with a mitt you can’t reach as far.

“This is because it absorbs lots of the product so you need more.”
Their video has racked up 20,000 likes, and many people were quick to chime in.
Many said they would try the glove hack, with one saying: “I need a pair of gloves now.”
However, not everyone was convinced.

Another person added: “Mitt looks more natural. Meaning it’s brown and not green.”
To achieve the sun kissed glow Victoria and Jacqui suggest layering up the product on your legs first, and working down to your ankles.
The trick is to keep rubbing it in until it is completely dry and always stand on top of an old towel to avoid ruining floors and carpets.
