You have spent you summer at the pool with your best friends planning the wedding of your dreams. Everything has come together beautifully. You get to the final fitting of your gown, it looks stunning on you- and then you see it.

The dreaded X.

Some tan lines can last up to a year before fading away. Here is an easy regime to banish yours before your big day.

Exfoliate- Exfoliation gloves work very well paired with your favorite body scrub. Start exfoliating daily.

Apply Sunless Tanner- It is better to get a good mist on tan like the kind the Versa Spa booths offer. If you would rather do it at home, a good lotion tanner will almost always give you a better coverage than the aerosol tanner.

Apply Sunscreen- Every time you stick your arm out the window, sit at an outdoor event, or go for a run, you are creating an uneven tan. Please stick with a sunscreen with an SPF higher than 30 and apply it generously. Again, the lotions are better than the aerosol.

Your photographer will thank you when he/she does not have to photo-shop that bikini off you in your wedding photos.

Happy Tanning!
