Today, as I finished putting self tanner on my legs, the phone rang. Telemarketer. After returning to the bathroom I put moisturizer on my face. As I looked in the mirror, I soon realized I'd forgotten to wash my hands. My face is now streaky orange. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I got my make-up remover wipes mixed up with my sister's self-tan wipes. I am currently watching my face slowly turn orange and there is nothing I can do about it. FML
Today, I decided to try a self-tanning lotion my friend had recommended. I put it on, and decided to take a nap. I woke up later and checked myself in the mirror, expecting to see a new, more tanned version of myself. I didn't. I'm now orange. FML
Today, I decided to spray tan myself. Five minutes later, I had to pee, so I did. Not only do I now have two orange stripes on my toilet bowl, but I also have two big white stripes on the back of my thighs. FML
Today, I thought I could make my own skincare products from scratch, but I ended up with a weird, greasy concoction, which left a red mark on my hands. It's been two hours and the mark is still there, despite several washes. FML
Today, I used a self-tanning towelette to help even out my tan lines and disguise my vitiligo a bit. Now my stomach is orange and my spots are even more noticeable. FML
Today, I gave myself a facial with one of those masks you leave on for a while. I busied myself by tidying my room while it dried and eventually forgot all about it. I finally remembered about it after I answered the door to the postman. Not embarassing enough? I'm a guy. FML
Today, I tried a self-tanner in an attempt to rid myself of my ghost-white legs. I got my wish, but instead of a warm golden tan, I have red, swollen, lobster-like marks sticking out from the bottom half of my torso. FML
Today, I was getting ready for the school swimming carnival and was running very late. I reached for my deodorant and sprayed it on. It was only when I was at the pool that I realized I had accidentally grabbed the spray tan and covered my underarms in it. FML
Today, as I was about to go in the bathroom, a girl walked out, shaking water off her hands. Some of it landed on my face, and I just wiped it off. Then she said to her friend who was waiting for her, "The sink's broken. Can I use your hand sanitizer?" So what landed on my face? FML
Today, I was waiting at home for a phone call. While I was in the bathroom, the phone rang. I quickly stopped my business and ran out of the bathroom with my pants round my ankles. I leaped over the couch, tripping and then stubbing my toe while hopping to the phone. It was a telemarketer. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

YDI for using self tanner. Tanner cream = instant oompaloompa

I call BS. Unless you had mistaken your tanning lotion for moisturizer or unless you answer your phone with your feet this seems unlikely. You would have noticed tanning lotion on your phone when you picked it up unless you're an idiot.

YDI for self-tanning.

That's what you get for using self tanner. Now at least your face matches the rest of your body

All the people saying people should self-tan instead of UV-tanning because of the health benefits - if you're that worried you could always, I don't know, stick with your natural skin tone. OP deserves this for feeling a need to be tan.

As soon as I read "Today, as I finished putting self tanner", I clicked the YDI it link. Fake tans and overly tanned people look ugly.

You deserve it. Self tanner is lame.

I don't get the problem. If you put self-tanner on your legs, wouldn't you want your face to be the same skin color? It would look really weird to have tan legs and a white face. And I don't understand how forgetting to wash your hands here would make your face streaky, as opposed to just rubbing it in evenly like you did on your legs.

faux tan is NOT a turn on, evenly applied or not. I hope the cosmetics industry gets this someday and stops pushing it. Probably not until sickly pale is back in fashion though

What's up doc? (stupid carrot joke) So... Did you just grease your hair up into a messy faux-hawk, then pop your collar to try and cover it up?

I definitely prefer self-tanners to wrinkles, leathery skin, and skin cancer. But that's just me. FYL because I hate it when telemarketers call and I hate it when self tanners turn out streaky.

Doesn't make sense.
