I am going to use this for indoor bed use. Should I apply it 30 minutes before bed use? Also, will it streak if I am active after application? Thanks

I've only used this lotion for indoor beds. I have never had a problem with this lotion streaking after, I actually look rather bronzed after. I also never had had a problem with this lotion not working as well, it works perfectly for me without waiting 30 min. After application. No problem:)

Apply it prior to tanning when your in the room. This lotion doesn't streak but if you don't have a base tan you will get very red.

You can use this anytime, but perhaps you should reconsider even using indoor tanning beds, if that is what you mean by "indoor bed use." They are not totally safe (I know, what is?) and can do more harm than good. If you rub it in, it doesn't streak, like any lotion that is applied with care. Good tanning! Outdoors!

When i use this product, I apply in one long streak at a time, then give it like ten seconds and then wipe the streak alittle. Do this in front of a long mirror so that you can make sure the color is even. You need to repeat until you get the look you want, you should wear gloves to protect your hands and nails from discoloration. This process takes time and patience. Good luck

I make sure to continue to wipe until all liquid is gone and don't seem to have any streaking unless a very dirty start and in that case do a second application and again wipe until dry.... so you must turn paper towel often and use dry towel... possibly too much could leave streaking... dunno but I love this stuff... use it lightly... I seldom cover the whole space I am cleaning just a very light spray and again continue to wipe with dry towel or dry paper towel until dry.... I kind of buff it right through to the dry state and continue until all dry and clear...... good luck : )

I only used it for about 2 mos. once a day in the evening before bed. I did not see any results, personally. I asked my husband if he noticed anything different in my skin, he said "Honestly no." So, that was my experience. Perhaps your skin will respond differently? Good luck. :o)

This will absorb in your skin so as long as it has been at least 10 or 15 minutes after application. Can also be applied at night as well.

Hi BrianTo start with, I applied it for 2 nights in a row after a shower. After that, I only apply it every 3 to 4 days. It worked best on my arms and legs and a little less on my face. I e-mailed Dave and asked him if there was a reason. and he said that everyone is different and he suggested that I try his product called "Small Batch". It's for med to dark. I tried it and love it! Works so much better then the "Moisture Tan" although that one is good also. Highly recommend both products! Well worth the price! Thanx for asking! Good luck!

I haven't used this & gone to bed so don't know about sheets. I've only used a 2 or 3 times. I had on loose fitting clothing and did not put that on for at least a couple of hours. The couple times that I used it, I took a shower and then put it on my legs without putting any lotion or anything. The next day when I took a shower the water was kind of orange looking running off me when I first got in, so I don't trust ANYTHING until I see for myself. Sorry I don't have a better answer.

You put it on before you go to bed for seven days and then as needed. Make sure you don't get it in your eyes and that you really wash your hands after applying. It does work but my scalp burned and itched which I guess bothered me more than that awful sweating. I sure hope it works for you bc I really know what a problem this can be. I plan to use it again before my nephews wedding next May.

I believe the standard recommendation is to keep it on for 24 hours. I choose to leave it on for 36 hours. I have found that personally if I leave it on longer than that my super sensitive skin reacts to the non-reactive adhesive. That is probably due to my skin being covered and no air reaching it and not to the adhesive itself. The often recommended 24 hour period has no noticeable effect on my skin but a HUGE effect on my energy level. I hope this information has been helpful

Besides the normal fading that happens over time with any self tanner, I haven't noticed that anything (including sweat/exercise) causes it to come off. This is also one of the few products that I have not noticed streaking with.

You won't get streaks as long as you rub it in your skin as soon as you spray it on :-) I spray it directly on my skin instead of the mitt because I feel like the mitt soaks up a lot of the product

Hi! well basically what I do is i would roll the PFB Vanish to my legs after shower. I use it everyday twice, morning and evening before going to bed. but it would of course depends on the skin type. some people may only use this after shaving or waxing. Even if its a roll on, i would still rub it with my hands using surgical gloves on to prevent my hands from peeling (When you use PFB, there is a tendency for your skin to dry and peel) - i do this because it will evenly dry on your skin and would not leave you trail marks. After it dries, use a moisturizer/lotion to keep your skin from peeling. Should you have more query, I'd be glad to help. :) Hi! well basically what I do is i would roll the PFB Vanish to my legs after shower.

It didn't leave streaks on me. I'm medium completed and I have a TON of experience with bronzers in knowing how to put them on evenly and how to properly wash my hands after. I really liked this lotion. I didn't even need to really wash my hands, I would just rub them dry with a towel after application. I hope that helps

The manufacturer said in the instructions that it's ok to turn it on 30 minutes before you go to bed. I used to turn mine all the way up, then turn it down when I got into bed after 30 minutes or less. As I mentioned in my review, I noticed some mild scorching on and around the pillow area. I'm uneasy about using it now. When I do, I only turn it to 1 or even 0-1. I still use it as a mattress pad, but I have to be chilled to the core before I turn it on. I'm not making any accusations. I'm just saying use a little caution. My in-laws' woke up to discover their electric blanket in flames, so I'm a little gun shy.

I used it right after showering and put lotion on rough spots such as knees and ankle bones, etc. I also rubbed it in to my skin after spraying it on. I didn't have trouble with streaking.

I've been using this for about 2 1/2 weeks. I just thought I'd try it. Supposed to apply nightly for 6 weeks before you see intended results.

Personally I would wait at least 24 hours to use this after a spray tan session before applying it. Other than that, I use it daily whether I tan or not.
