While the Aniston's tan is almost always perfect, the actress showed how even she can fall victim to a tanning disaster. During filming for the third season of her Apple TV series, The Morning Show, she posted a hilarious self-tanning mishap that she experienced.

Posting to her Instagram, Aniston shared a video of her getting her fake tan scrubbed off by a production member. With one leg up on the sink, the actress says: "Note to self, hands and feet you must lotion before a spray tan, otherwise...a situation." We've been there, Jen.

In terms of what to know before fake tan for a successful session, moisturising the skin two hours prior to completing your tanning routine is the golden (no pun intended) rule to an effortless sun-kissed glow. In order to avoid stubborn fake tan disasters. We asked tanning expert, James Harknett for the best tips on how to fake tan like a pro, so we can ensure a streak-free result free from tanning mistakes every time.

“If you’re new to self tanning, try to make the actual tanning as easy as possible by opting for a product with a guide colour,” Harknett told woman&home. Another great tip, and one of our personal favourites, is opting for one of the best gradual tan formulas for a less intense approach to fake tanning.

Whether you're applying self tan at home, like one of the best instant tans, or getting a professional spray tan, James stresses the importance of prepping your skin: “Exfoliate the morning or evening before the tanning process, as this will allow your colour to develop to its darkest on the skin.” He also recommends sticking to simple moisturisers that will nourish your skin, or ones that are specifically formulated for use before self tanning.
