It's that time again. Time to confess & this week I've got quite the embarrassing story. It basically tells the world that I'm awesome....Didn't you know?
I confess....
- I had a BIG fail this week.
- Big one.
- I was getting ready in the morning.
- Doing hair & make up - you know, the typical stuff.
- Then I decided I needed some lotion.
- It's summer time.
- Warm out there.
- My skin is getting dry & I want to keep it moisturized.
- I reached into the cupboard under the sink & grabbed my lotion.
- Opened it.
- Put a large amount in my hand & started rubbing it onto my arm.
- Then the smell hit me.
- It wasn't right.
- A little stinky.
- I looked at the bottle.
- Oh shiz!!
- I grabbed my Fake Bake self-tanner
- NOT my Victoria's Secret Amber Romance.
- You know how when you're putting on regular lotion you just kind of slap it on?
- [Well I do, anyway].
- When you are putting self-tanner on you kind of need to be a little more...careful.
- I wasn't.
- It was too late.
- I had already rubbed it all over my arm.
- My elbow included.
- [I definitely leave my elbows out when I know I'm going to be using self-tanner!]
- I had to asses the situation.
- It was on there too well to try & wash it off.
- I was going to have to put it on my other arm as well.
- And hope for the best.
- So I hurried & tried to remedy the situation as best as possible.
- I put it on arm #2.
- Grabbed a cotton ball & got it wet.
- Tried to wipe my elbows off.
- I succeeded.
- It ended up ok.
- I wasn't streaky & gross.
- But I did smell like self-tanner all day.
- Not like delicious Amber Romance like I had intended.
- I learned a lesson: LOOK BEFORE YOU APPLY!
- Also, I'm awesome.
Now it's your turn. Link up & confess!!

I totally thought you were going to say it was Nair. LOL! I do this stuff too but not tanner. I did face wash instead of face lotion. Those Aveda bottles all look alike!
I thought it was going to be hair remover too!!! At least it ended well and your arms are a little tanner now :).
I don't do well with self tanner. I'm SO white that I have to use the stuff that builds up over time and I always get impatient with it. I'm pretty pale all year long, good thing I don't wear shorts!
I don't do well with self tanner either - in fact, after turning my legs (and especially my knees) bright orange a few summers ago, I don't bother with it anymore! Glad to hear it wasn't too bad! lol
Ha ha oh man! I hate that smell!! That is pretty funny though. And I'm so glad you didn't end up looking orange because that would be no bueno.
Why does all self tanner smell the same way? Can't they fix that?
too funny! I got some self tanner stuff for my legs that I'm TERRIBLY afraid to try! I got it from a blog swap... Never heard of Amber Rose-- I just got hooked on Twilight from BB&B.. the sparkly spray, ya know-- so people can see me comin'!
oh and I'm followin' ya now!!! oooohhhh!!!
