This will protect your palms from turning 'orange'. The palms of your hands don't naturally tan, so if you get self-tanner on them it'll be a dead giveaway that your tan came from a bottle instead of the sun's rays. If you don't have latex gloves or a tanning mitt handy, you can wash your hands with soapy water throughout the process to remove self-tanner. You may also want to protect your bathroom surfaces by putting down an old sheet or a plastic tarp and applying the self-tanner while standing on it. Keep nice towels and other items out of the way. Self-tanner is known for creating tough stains. Working from the ankles up toward your torso will result in a natural-looking tan. Squeeze a small amount of tanning product into the palm of your hand. Spread the tanner over your skin in broad circular motions. Follow the instructions that came with your formula to determine how long to rub it in. Apply it to one body part at a time so you can be sure not to miss any spots.  If you're using a spray tanner, follow the directions regarding how far you should hold the can from your body and how long you should spray any given area. Holding it too close or spraying too long could result in an uneven tan. Around your feet, spread the tanner from your legs onto your ankles and the tops of your feet, and use as little as possible in this area. Don't apply any to your toes, heels, or the sides of your feet, since these areas don't tan much naturally. It may be a good idea to use a makeup brush for this step, so you can really blend it in well. If you're applying it to your back, use a strap or a band for even application. Better yet, ask a friend to help you out. If you aren't wearing gloves, use a timer and make sure you wash your hands every five minutes, scrubbing under and around the nails. While most people don't have tanned underarms, avoiding that area can be difficult, so it's better to apply self tanner there and lightly wipe with a damp washcloth about five minutes later. Blending the tanning lotion with a regular lotion around the ankles, wrists, knees and elbows will result in a lighter, more natural-looking application around these areas. Any type of regular moisturizing lotion works well.  Apply a very small amount of regular lotion to the tops of your feet (if you are using gloves, rinse them in water and dry them to ensure no additional tan will mix in with the moisturiser, or wash hands afterwards) and blend it with the tanner that you've already applied around your ankles. Apply a small amount of regular lotion around your knees, especially just below the knee. Do the same thing to your elbows, especially the part that puckers when your arm is straight. Use plenty of lotion on your hands, and blend it into your wrists. Apply the tanner sparingly on your face and neck because that skin will darken easily.  Start by applying it to the places where you naturally tan: your forehead, the apples of your cheeks, your chin, and the bridge of your nose. Using a steady circular motion, smooth the tanning lotion outward to cover the rest of your face as well.  You might want to apply some petroleum jelly to your eyebrows before you begin, that way the tanning lotion won't collect there and darken the area too much.  Be careful not to get too much tanning lotion on your upper lip, as this spot absorbs more lotion than other areas on the face. Don't forget to apply it behind your ears and the back of your neck, especially if you have short hair. Avoid contact with anything or anyone for the first 15 minutes, and don't get dressed for an hour. If that's not convenient, you can put on a loose article of clothing, but make it something you don't mind staining. Avoid contact with water or doing anything that'll make you sweat for the first three hours after application.  Try to wait 8 hours before showering or bathing again. Avoid exfoliating or using retinol on your skin for several days. Wait at least 8 hours before deciding to apply more tanner. It takes awhile to work, and if you act too soon you might end up too tan! If you feel sticky, you can apply baby powder with a large body powder puff 30-60 minutes after applying the lotion. Don't rub it in, though, or it could affect the finish of your tan.

Summary:
Use a tanning mitt (available in most drugstores) or put on a pair of latex gloves. Apply it to your legs, torso and arms. Blend at the ankles, wrists and joints. Apply it to your face and neck. Wait.
