I'm using that Dove Energy Glow lotion with the subtle self tanners and I'm afraid to shave or get in a pool because when I used to use the regular self-tanners, they would always wash off when I shaved my legs or got in a pool.
Does anyone know if the Dove Energy Glow behaves in the same way or does it stay tan no matter what if you keep using it?

You can prevent this though. Exfoliate in the shower before you apply your self tanner. It preps your skin for the moisturizer, and sloughs of dead skin. Some self tanners also offer an exfoliate, but they tend to be more expensive. You can go for a regular body wash that states it exfoliates, how you can tell is if it has little beady sandy things (technical term of course), or even St Ives Apricot scrub. As an added bonus, it also makes shaving your legs easier, because again it gets rid of dead skin. [ Notso's advice column | Ask Notso A Question ]
