If not, here it is on YouTube
My skin is naturally pasty white. I guess "porcelain" is a more attractive adjective. I also have blue eyes and freckle with reckless abandon in the sun. I am skin cancer waiting to happen. I usually use a gradual self tanning lotion and I finally got the application process down so I get it all nice and even.
Then, I watched about 5 minutes of Regis and Kelly on Friday (because 5 minutes is about all I can handle). In the segment I saw they were going over the different types of self tanners and the girl from Allure magazine just loved the sprays. She said anyone could do them! I'm anyone, so I went right out and bought me some self tanner spray.
I applied it in the bathtub with the curtain closed to ensure that I did not tan the house, the cat, or the dog in the process. It seemed to go on well so I just waited for it to tan. A few hours later I looked down at my legs. I had managed to spray tan them in carnival tent stripes. Tan stripe/pasty stripe/tan stripe/pasty stripe...all around both legs. So I hopped into the bathtub again and tried to tan the pasty white stripes.
I successfully managed to just darken the already tanned stripes.
After my sister laughed uproariously at me this morning, I attempted to tan my legs again. The rest of me tanned just fine the first time around. So from the waist up I am a nice, even, medium tan. From the waist down, it is another story altogether. After three tries at this, I am now another ethnic background stripe/lightly tanned stripe/another ethnic background stripe/lightly tanned stripe.
So tell me, what is it like to be normal? Because nothing I ever do is normal....
