Gemma Collins suffered an unfortunate beauty blunder, leaving her with streaky fake tan on her face after mistaking tanning drops for face serum.
The former TOWIE star, 43, took to her Instagram stories on Monday evening to talk her 2.2 million followers through a weight loss fad she had been following, when she admitted her mistake.
She posted a short video of her empty plate after eating some noodles and claimed that ‘life could not be any better,’ before filming a follow-up clip with the camera on her face.
Gemma warned: ‘Don’t even look at my face right now, I don’t know what I’ve done.
‘I think I went to put face serum on last night and I’ve put a tan drop serum on. Terrible, terrible, terrible.’

Examining her face on camera, she added: ‘It could only happen to me, hands are pure white.’
The star then attempted to continue talking about her diet but kept getting distracted by her blunder, appearing shocked at her reflection on the screen.
Gemma desperately asked fans for help on how she can quickly rectify her mistake.
She asked: ‘Any solutions on how… look how bad that is. Is that not bad?
‘Shocking. Typical me, always in a rush, not looking properly – but dinner was delicious.’
The reality star pointed at her face and turned to the side so viewers could see the fake tan fail from a number of angles.
A visible line could be seen, stopping at the edges of her face where she hadn’t used the product.
And it’s not the first time the reality starlet has been heavy-handed with the fake tan bottle.
