Hoping for a bronzed hue, Janice explained she opted for a fake tan one shade darker than what she would usually go for, hoping it would create a sun-kissed glow.

But, it didn't go to plan and after three showers and a *lot* of baby oil, she couldn't shift the fake tan and soon, it started to turn orange.

"All my mates have been taking the mick. They said I looked like Worzel Gummidge, especially with the hair," said Janice.

"I went for a bottle one shade darker than I usually buy, thinking it would give me a really nice tan. But after just a couple of minutes it was really dark. I thought that was it, but it just got darker."
