Since summer started a few weeks ago, i've gone out in my pool a lot, almost every day to tan. And from my stomach and up, i've gotten a really nice tan. But i can't seem to tan my legs. I'm not sure why this is happening because i've layed out on a pool raft, so all of my body would get tan.
Earlier this year when I wanted to wear shorts, but didn't have a chance to tan, I used an at home spray tanner, but I only really used it on my legs since the rest of my body would be essentially covered up.
Before the first time I went to tan outside this summer, I scrubbed off all of the self tanner because I thought it would look better if I had a natural tan all over my body.
But lo and behold, now I can't seem to tan my legs. They have a little color up where I didn't put the self tanner, by my underwear. So I think that might be the reason why.
Could self tanner cause me not to tan? If not, what might cause this? And what can I do to tan my legs without product?

Try using some tanning oil with a little sunblock in it so you will tan but not burn. They sell it on the aisle with the sunblock. And its just an oil.
