Claudia Winkleman says she used two household ingredients to get fake tan

TV's Claudia Winkleman has admitted using tea bags and Bisto gravy granules - to get a fake tan.

Strictly star Claudia, 50, shared her unusual beauty trick during a radio show.

She and the host of Radio Four's Women's Hour, Emma Barnett, were discussing where they put their tea bags after they make a cuppa.

Claudia revealed one of her 'best friends' used to put the bags in a ramekin so they could 'reuse' it.

She said: 'I'm going back to university here, when everything was reused, and I mean everything."

Host Emma Barnett suggested listeners could be able to reuse a tea bag if 'you're not a strong brewer' or 'to make old maps'.

To which Claudia said: "Or fake tan because I've done that before."

She added: "Of course I have, and Bisto, listen needs must, needs must."

Claudia also admitted she leaves her tea bag in the sink after making a brew which drives her husband 'mad'.
