00:00A TikToker from Blackpool who went viral following a fake tan disaster has warned others to be careful after being bombarded with abuse.
00:08Bobbie Jo Houston mixed several fake tan brands in an attempt to create her own perfect bronze colour.
00:14I've mixed Bondi Sands, Saint Merez, Saint Tropez, Tanning Drops from Superdrug.
00:25The 39-year-old hoped the concoction would make a nice colour in the morning as she was always left disappointed with other tanning methods.
00:32However, as the hours went on, she discovered her experiment had failed as her skin began to get darker with a tinge of green.
00:38More than 5 million people watched the crisis unfold as she took to TikTok to share her situation and to see if anyone had a solution.
00:46Speaking to the Gazette, Bobbie Jo, who now has more than 83,000 followers, said it was a laugh at first and she later accepted a challenge to put on 10 layers of self-tanner.
00:56Despite accepting the dare to entertain people, she says she suffered a torrent of abuse after the videos went viral.
01:03Bobbie Jo has now issued a warning to anyone else hoping to go viral on social media following her experience.
01:09She said, when it goes on the internet, everyone can see it and it can be shared everywhere.
01:14So be prepared if you're trying to go viral. Be careful as it can turn really bad very quickly.
