Question:
Glycolic/resurfacing products & Fake Tan
Hi,
I am doing some serious glycolic peels on my body and also using resurfacing products.
I wondered if it was ok to use Fake tan on my body, I fear that my skin will absorb the tan and mark my body? is that possible?

I would have thought the G.A would "strip" away the fake tan but maybe I'm wrong. Didnt realise you could use G.A on your body, how and where do you put it ?
I think with any glycolic/salycylic acid products you have to choose between one of the other..the tan, or the acid!
Hmmm so i cant use fake tan on my body at all after the glycolic? That would leave me with a painfully pale bod.. not good.
I use the GA all over my legs, my bum, my tummy and my back. Itd doing wonders. I dont have acne but it helps with the odd bumps and uneven tone.
Do you think my skin will be discoloured after the fake tan?
Right I understand what you're saying now. After the GA I would wait a day or two then apply your fake tan, however if you are doing frequent GA peels then your tan will fade as soon as you apply the GA again. I dont think using the GA then fake-tan will give you any bad reactions.
What strength GA are you using for your body and how much ?
