White crease marks on my turtle neck (not my jumper).

Yes and yes. You could try a body lotion with a spot of easy tan in it. I'm using Dove Derma Spa Summer Revived (on offer at Boots) to try to rid myself of the prison pallor caused by being in doors too much nice and gentle and builds up slowly and looks natural. In a few weeks I'll be on the Clarins Self Tanning Instant Gel - great for going bare legged.

Now that I have spent a few afternoons reading outdoors I have already got a bit of a tan despite wearing sun cream. The problem is that I always get white lines where my neck is creased. It looks awful! A friend suggested applying make-up, but I don't often wear foundation on my face so it might look odd. Has anyone ever used self-tan and would it work on just the creases? Any other suggested remedy or prevention would be appreciated.
Perhaps I need one of those foil reflector boards, but it would be no good when tilting head forward to read.
