Tanning expert reveals you’ve been using your mitt all wrong – and that’s why you get patchy knees | The Sun

A TANNING expert has warned that you're probably using your mitt all wrong when trying to achieve a fake glow.

Jules Von Hep, who has been a spray tanner for over 15 years, has revealed in a TikTok video how to apply products without tell-tale patchiness.

Captioning the post, the Isle Of Paradise founder wrote: "Here's how to tan your legs and knees babes!"

Speaking to the camera, he said that he begins by moisturising his feet and knees prior to application.

Then Jules started applying the fake tan, and explained: "Start at the ankles and come up the legs.

"I'm not going to apply any mousse to the knees.

His post was popular with viewers, who left more than 21,000 'likes' and over 200 messages.
