We're coming into summer and many ladies will be breaking out the fake tan to take the edge off that luminous bluish-white colour many of us been cultivating over the winter.

But with fake tan comes great risks.

As Skyler Davis, a high school student from Ohio, recently found out.

The 17-year-old went for her first spray tan ahead of her senior prom last Saturday and emerged happy with the results.

But she and her boyfriend got into a bit of an argument soon after which resulted in some tears on Skyler's part - and spelled disaster for her tan.

She posted a photo of the streaky mess to her Twitter - and it was soon shared all over the internet.

Skyler subsequently deleted the photo from her Twitter, telling Buzzfeed that she had had enough of the fame.

"I was just a girl with a messed up spray tan, I had no idea this would ever go viral.”

And while it looked pretty bad, despite comments online to the contrary, the tan was actually quite easily fixed - Skyler showered, went back to the spa the next day to get a touch -up and all was solved.

As you can see from the photo of her looking lovely at the prom.
