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
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my sister thought it would be funny to spray my face with my new tanning spray, which is only supposed to be used on arms and legs. I woke up and looked in the mirror to see an orange blotchy face staring back at me. My parents can't look at me without laughing. FML
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
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 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, my 15 year-old brother, visiting me for the weekend, thought it would be a great idea to switch my expensive moisturiser for fake tan cream. I'm going to work in 12 hours. I'm fluorescent orange. FML
Today, while I was trying to take off my eye make up, I accidentally used nail polish remover. FML
Today, I realized how exhausted I was when I mixed up my eye makeup remover with toner. My eye still burns. FML
Today, after I took a shower, I was wiping my face with the towel I share with my sister. It smelled peculiar, so I took my face away and looked at it. Turns out, I was wiping my face on a huge shit stain. FML
Today, my mom told me that my new concealer is way too dark and makes my skin look hideously orange and uneven. I wasn't wearing any makeup. 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
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Mix lemon and baking soda into a paste, let it sit for 5 mins then scrub your face... Should come right off.

Yes, definitely more of the mix-up make-up needed to even out the colour.

More makeup will not work.. My sister used to use tan in can. All you can do is use it on other parts of your body to even out your colour.

Emmamazing 26

lantz4levi 19
Haha your probably gonna get down voted but that was pretty funny none the less. Just wrong timing
lantz4levi 19
Well I guess it was right timing too but you know what I mean

Try standing in the sun to even it out. Wait, no sun where you are from.
thejonac 21
that was incredibly rude

#30: Incredibly rude? How are you getting by with such thin skin ?

#4. I'd rather live in a country with no sun, than a country where I'd be bottom of the food chain.
Cads1 24
I thought you were the bottom of the U.K.
tj4234 36
No, England's at the bottom. Scotland is in the north, on top.
vampemu 16
It's actually finally sunny in England at the moment.
tj4234 36
It's actually been sunny in Scotland as well. Usually dark and foreboding up here...

Hence the lack of sun comment. It was more a statement of fact rather than a cheap shot.
tj4234 36
As was saying that you are the bottom of the food chain in your country.

Look at the package and wash it off gosh
rxsey16 16
self tanner doesn't wash off. -_-
superwhovian 16
I didn't know that I thought it was like spray tan
klorehore 24
Spray tan doesnt wash off either. Self tanners usually last 5-10 days, spray tan a little longer.

Lemon juice + rock salt works well too! [:
JMichael 26
Rock salt is more for warding off demons and the paranormal
delude 26
Correct me if I'm wrong but don't you just get acid+base=salt?

Be more careful next time. Let's hope some oompa loompa's don't come around and sing for you ;p

Today, I mistakenly used my sisters make up remover wipes instead my fake tanning wipes. So now I am walking around looking like Casper. FML
