So last night I decided to try airbrush tan at my local salon. My engagements are tomorrow and my bridals on are Saturday. The airbrushing went well. The lady who did it made me feel very comfortable and relaxed… But once I got home... it went downhill from there!!. I woke up this morning looking like an Oompa Loompa!! So much so, that my FH was teasing me singing "Oompa Loompa Doopidy Doo" haha I scrubbed myself with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser (Yeah.. the kind used for the kitchen).. I look a little better.. but I’m still pretty orange!

OH.. and the best part of this story... I woke up with my white skin showing through by my mouth. Apparently I had drooled last night.

I wish I had pictures to show all of you. At this point all I can do is laugh. I’m pretty confident that I will NEVER do a spray tan again.

Show all

Lol that is awful! I did a spray tan once in college and for like an hour I thought I looked hot and then went to a party and everyone was like wtf is wrong with your skin!? It turned more and more orange and I was prety much mortified. I wasn't alone though- my two friends went with me and we all looked bad.

@Candy S That is a really good suggestion. I wish I had talked to you yesterday. Haha

I’m glad I have some fellow brides I can laugh about this with. I need to laugh or else I’m going to cry. Hahaha Thanks everyone for all the suggestions and for giving me a good laugh!!!!

You are hilarious and not even trying. I wish you had pictures to capture the memory, and I'm so glad you're finding the humor in this instead of having a meltdown.

You should give your co-workers "the face." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wRXa971Xw0

A girl at work does it. She's always orange and her shirt collar always matches her skin (it's a white shirt)
Another girl I know it gathers at knuckles and knees and ends up darker lol

That is hilarious, and I would also be joining you with the drool streak.
I did the spray tan before my wedding, mostly to blend in my tan lines and never had any problems and I did both the machine and someone manual spraying me, same with my parents, no problems.
