As Summer fast approaches, the United Kingdom is preparing to book those long awaited holidays and transform their skin from pale and pasty to sun kissed and gold.
With the risks of using sun beds being more widely publicised, many of us are turning more and more to fake tan products as the healthier, safer option.
The "orange" look is still wildly popular across much of the UK (as the map shows), with the top fake tan region being the North East.
Vouchercloud carried out a research exercise of the most popular tanning related searches and what geographical location those tanning searches were carried out in.
Mr Woods from Vouchercloud stated:
‘It was with some amusement in our office that we realised the north-east was by far the main area for fake tan related searches,’ said Mr Wood.
‘The image of the north-east of yesteryear was of hardworking industrial types, smeared in the grime of endeavour. These days, it seems they’re more likely to be covered in St Tropez.’
The total results were as follows:
1. North-east – 21.3%
2. North-west – 16.1%
3. East of England – 12.7%
4. Scotland – 10.4%
5. Wales – 7.1%
6. London – 6.6%
7. West Midlands – 6.3%
8. Yorkshire and Humber – 5.9%
9. South-east – 5.3%
10. South-west – 4.3%
There are lots of fake tanning products on the market today and trying to decide which one to choose can be daunting. I have tried many in the past and finding one that does not streak and is easy to apply can seem like a mission.
