One of the biggest mistakes spray self-tanners make, according to Evans, is being afraid of using too much product. "They use a very small amount of product and try to tan a large area," says Evans. That's a recipe for streaks. Instead, when self-tanning at home, coat your body with spray tanner and then use a tanning mitt (a great streak preventer) to spread it evenly.
Oh, and you actually can't use too much. "The skin can only absorb a certain amount of tanning agent," says Evans. The rest should be buffed away with a tanning mitt.
Try: Hampton Sun Sunless Tanning Mist, $36, or, if you're in a hurry, spray on St. Tropez Self Tan Express Bronzing Mist, $40, which develops in one to three hours.
