As with any product that you are trying for the first time, it is highly recommended that you do a "patch test" first. (You can test this product out on a inconspicuous patch of skin, such as behind your ear or on your inner wrist to be sure that you are not allergic or have any adverse effects.)

I use it on my face and it hasn't broke me out yet. I make sure to use the leftover from my chest and neck. I wouldn't spray the mitt just before you do it, as the leftover is enough. I've never had problems with it looking streaky.

I've always used this product on my face. I have oily, acne-prone skin and using this product has not caused flare-ups. I would recommend using a light hand when applying it to your face and making sure to moisturize any dry areas because it will make that area darker than the surrounding areas. I would also recommend applying this before you go to bed and washing it off in the morning. The guide color is very dark and can look a little unnatural on the face. Also, make sure to not apply foundation or concealer over the guide, as this may cause the tanner to appear streaky or spotty.

Liner is like paper thin. I put my liner on the bottom of the oven which has the element beneath the pan so you cannot see it. I'm planning to just use my cookie sheet instead. We made a claim to the company, but they said they couldn't do anything about it. Please do not take a chance for the price. We think using a cookie sheet is a great idea; you wash it just once in a while.

READ ALL BEFORE USING: Wash your face with gentle cleanser....pat dry with gentle cloth....tear open one small pack ..gently unfold the mask-it will be very wet and seem as if it will tear-it won't. Peel the harder plastic cover from the softer cloth-u will notice it looks just like a face with holes for eyes, an small opening for nose and opening for mouth. Lay the mask onto your face while lying on the bed and position it to cover your face..it can be a bit tricky at first. Keep the mask on for as long as you like-at least 30 minutes....relax When finished throw away the mask and try not to wash your face...it will feel a bit sticky, but subsides. I do these right before bed to distress or before going out for an evening on the town...not magic, but good.

It burned the *expletive deleted* out of my face after about a minute. I left it in probably for about 3 minutes before I used baking soda to neutralize it. I would say do a test on your neck or something first because it was not my first peel I knew what to expect. What I do now is I only put it on areas that are uneven in tone or that have pimples and leave it for the full time (about 8-10 min) or as long as I can stand it LOL and then neutralize it. Follow up with a moisturizer for your skin type (I use pure argan oil from Morocco) and you're good to go! It is a pretty decent peel even if it burns a bit and it doesn't quite PEEL peel but you'll notice your skins clarity improves. Hope this helped!

Like any other cooking/baking product it is going to get hot and there are risk, even as an adult. (yesterday i accidentally touched the iron!) I recommend 10 and up if they have supervison and someone to explain and assist every step of the way! Once the baked goodies cool off i say ANY age can decorate them!!! Just remember to be safe and fun :)

My skin is soooo sensitive, I wouldn't put it on my face. But sun lab makes one called strickly faces, I think I might try that one. Otherwise I just use darker makeup on my face. I hope this helps :)

Mine was not a perfect fit either, I think it's because how the clay dries, but it did it's job while baking and my bread comes out perfect, I guess it helps the steam to escape a little bit instead of trapping all the moisture instead and dropping the moisture on the bread, try and bake and see how you feel about it

I based the consistency on other clay masks that I've used, so I kind of "eyeball" it. I start out with a teaspoon of the clay and add a little liquid at time; stirring after each addition until I get a medium thick paste. If you get it too thick, it may not spread on your skin evenly and smoothly. To check the consistency, put a little on the back of your hand. If it's where you want it, then your good. Unfortunately, the directions on the jar don't give measurements. But like I mentioned, since I've used other clay masks, I had an idea as to how the paste should be. Hope this helps!

Yes! It took me about 2 hours. If it's sticky - that's normal. It will bake off the first time you turn it on. Good luck and enjoy!

mine last all day and it does not run, cake get cracky or easily wipe off. It does take some practice in applying; but if makeup is your thing, worth the effort.

I have had pretty good luck just using normal baking instructions. I don't believe they require anything special at all. Great bakeware :)

Very hard but it has to be overworked on. Best if don soon. I use antibacteria lemon or lavender handsoap. This always works with a little work. I'm glad I GOT this question. It reminded me to order more. I love it! Also great with a brush of baking powder lightly over the makeup.amazing finish.

It's not bad at all...kind of coconut like. Just a hint of "self-tanner" smell. The original Fake Bake probably smells the best. I've worn it to work...and I teach 33 fifth graders. If it was smelly, they would tell me.

This stuff IS FAKE!I got in contact with a Fake Bake representative (mary@fakebake.com) and she stated, and I quote, "We do not sell to Amazon or support their website so your Amazon account would not be of any interest to us. We will not back any product sold on their website or E-Bay.Mary Customer Service"This clearly says to me that these products are fake! Beware! It says "by Fake Bake" but she refused to assist me with my issue because these are not their products.
