Festival girls: how do you maintain self tan while sweating, camping, shaving & reapplying SPF?🎪🎆😍⛺

I'm an extremely pale Irish natural redhead, and last summer before my wedding + honeymoon (which was also a big camping music festival)!!! ⛺🎪🎆

The tan I use is:

🔥Bondi Sands Tinted Skin Perfector Gradual Tanning Lotion🔥

I use it every 3 days for about a month beforehand. I LOVE THIS TAN! So I plan on using it again for festival season this year! 💓

Overall it looked really nice, but once I was at the festival dealing with sweating, sunscreen, shaving, socks, body tape, etc., the tan started getting patchy in certain areas.🤦🏼‍♀️

This year I really want to figure out the best way to maintain a natural-looking tan at camping music festivals where I obviously need to wear a LOT of SPF and reapply constantly.🧴🌞

Right now I use:

-Bondi Sands Fragrance Free SPF 50+ on my body

-La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVMune 400 Invisible Fluid on my face

My questions are:

-Does layering sunscreen over gradual self tan make it fade faster or go patchy?

-What sunscreens work best over fake tan?

-Does shaving make self tan fade unevenly?

-How do you make self tan last as long as possible during multi-day festivals/camping?

-Any tricks for preventing patchiness around ankles/socks/shoes?

-Has anyone had issues with boob tape or double-sided tape removing tan? Even gradual tan?

Last year the worst areas were:

Around my ankles where my socks rubbed

Areas where I used sticky tape for outfits/swimwear

Would love advice from people who camp/go to festivals a lot because I feel like normal self-tan advice doesn’t really account for sweating, dust, SPF reapplication, friction, etc.

THANKS 🙏🏼❤️🥰
