BEAUTY fans are raving about a “genius toothpaste hack” which helps to perfect their fake tan.
For those who have ever fake tanned, will know how the hands can be the most tricky part.
If not done properly, streaks and bright orange stains can be left on the underneath sides of your hands.
But one beauty fan has come up with a solution which will help to smooth the fake tan evenly over your hand.
Filming her tanning routine, she first started off by taking the mitt off which showed a clear difference in colour - as she had clearly been tanning her arms before then.

She then gets the tanning moose and squirts a generous amount of tanning moose on her hand before rubbing it in with her other hand.
The beauty fan said: “Pretty much, rub that fake tan in like moisturiser and don’t forget the knuckles.”
She then showed what the palm side of her hand looked like, and it appeared to be brown and uneven.
The fake tanner said: “We don’t want this happening.”
She then gets a makeup brush and squirts toothpaste onto the top of it, before rubbing it into the palm of her hands.
The tanner said: “As you can see it is already coming off there.”
Using a wet towel, she then wipes it off and scrubs the excess tanning away, whilst also wiping her nails as well.
She then shows a clear difference in both hands - one without having used the toothpaste trick, and the other having used the trick.
The video, which was shared on TikTok, has since gone viral with over 55,000 people liking it and over 1,200 people rushing to the comments section to share their thoughts.

“What a brillant tip,” raved one user.
Another added: “Thanks so much!”
However, not everyone was impressed with the trick.
One wrote: “This is WAY too much effort.”
Another added: “This is why I use gradual tanners because they look very natural.”
Others gave some suggestions and tips on how they perfect their fake tan look.
One wrote: “I just use a brush and just paint the front , why waste the self tanner ? Works for me.”
“I just use the excess off the mitt once available and tan it all,” another said.
“Just put it on the tops of each hand with a mit.
"Then use regular lotion on your hands. It will keep your knuckles from getting too dark,” suggested another.
