Common fake tan myths Most tanning waters will develop over a couple of hours, and won't transfer onto clothes or bedding, meaning you can apply them pretty much anytime throughout the day. Easy.

If you fake tan before bed and shower in the morning, you probably wake to orange-tinged sheets, unless you sleep on a large, dark coloured towel. Applying the tan earlier in the day will give the tan time to absorb and prevent it discolouring your linen. Some colourless self-tanners also prevent staining on clothing and bedding. Before diving into the stain removal process, it's crucial to assess the severity and extent of the discolouration. By determining the type of fabric and the age of the stain, you can choose the right products and techniques to effectively eradicate the tan residue. While some might require mild pre-treatment, others need more intensive cleaning methods to get the desired results. Key TakeawaysSome unavoidably common stains on bedding are areas of discolouration from sweat and body oils. It’s natural for us humans to sweat and shed while we sleep; as a natural consequence, our bodily excretions contain substances that can cause white bedding to turn yellow. And, if you think that using more deodorant would reduce this staining, think again; the aluminium in deodorant mixes with chemicals in your sweat, which actually results in more noticeable yellow stains. With all of that in mind, even the most cleanly individuals will face sweat stains on their bedding from time to time.
