I compared fake tanning my legs using a mitt and a glove, the results were incredible
TWO women who share a TikTok channel have revealed their ultimate tanning hack to ensure you get a smooth and even fake tan.
Taking to their account, the two girls, called Jackie and Victoria, started their clip by announcing it was “Tanning Thursday with the Hondrou twins”.
In the video, a pair of legs could be seen outstretched on the floor as one of the women spread a generous amount of the product across them.
On the left, they could be seen spreading the tan around using a blue rubber glove on their hand, while the right side saw them perform the same action with a mitt.
“Yes, that was an excessive amount of tan but we are doing this experiment, so it was relevant,” one of them said over the footage.
They continued: “On the left leg, we’re applying it using gloves. On the right, we’re applying it using a mitt.
“So you saw there we used the same amount of product, but it’s amazing how much that mitt absorbed all that product but the glove kept it on there.”
They went on to explain that the glove outperformed the mitt by being able to blend the fake tan out and even reach the foot as well as the top of the thigh.
“But that mitt there did not reach anywhere as far,” they shared.
Showing off the the finished look, viewers could see the how much darker the left side looked compared to the leg that was done with the mitt.
“Look at that!” they said, before concluding her TikTok video by adding: “The coverage from the glove is just incredible. That’s why we love ‘em!”
Many people were in agreement with the Hondrou twins as one person wrote: “been doing this for years I tell everyone to use them such a better result”. [sic]
Another shared: “I now understand why tan was so light”. [sic]
“What kind of gloves?” a third quizzed, to which they answered: “Nitrile powder free ones”.
A fourth said it takes some practice in order to get the end results looking as good as they made it out to be, but admitted the gloves mean you can use “much less product”.
And a fourth added: “I use to always only use gloves, then I of course got on the mitt trend & now thinking about it I use to be so much browner from just gloves!”
