Apply Sunless Tanning Lotion
How to Get a Natural Looking Tan with Sunless Tanning Lotion
With the variety of sunless tanning products now
available, you can have that burnished, healthy glow
without suffering the harmful side effects of excessive
exposure. Today’s products are light, easy to use and
great for your skin. To achieve the most natural effect,
here are a few guidelines to help you look your best.
Make sure that you have all the materials you need on
hand including sunless tanning lotion, a band to keep
your hair out of your face, a brush for your fingernails
and a sponge roller to apply tanner to your back.
Before applying your sunless tanning lotion, you
should exfoliate your skin thoroughly with a soft
washcloth. Loofahs and nylon scrubbers can be harsh on
sensitive skin and leave you with a streaky effect.
Be sure to apply the lotion evenly over all parts of
your body. Wash your hands after you’re finished to
avoid telltale orange palms.
Wear a bathing suit when applying sunless tanning
lotion. This will give you believable tan lines and make
it look as if you’ve just stepped off the beach. Or, you
can wear shorts and a T-Shirt according to your
preference. Whatever you wear, make sure that you can
apply the sunless tanning lotion right up to the edge of
the garment without getting uneven tan lines.
All sunless tanning lotions are not created equal.
Certain products are formulated for fairer skin and
other more suitable for darker complexions. Keeping this
in mind, never reapply a product that you haven’t used
before if you are unsure of its effect. Some products
will darken your skin more quickly than others after the
second or third application.
Choose your product according to how well you
naturally tan. For example, if you tend to burn easily,
Au Courant Sunless Tanning Spray, SUN Laboratories
Luxurious Self Tanning Milk and Yves Rocher Monoi de
Tahiti Express Bronze Self Tanner are some options for
paler skin. For skin tans well to moderately brown, Au
Courant Bronze Face Gel in Copper, Clinique Self-Sun
Self-Tanning Lotion Dark, Neutrogena Sunless Tanning
Foam in Deep and Neutrogena Sunless Tanning Foam in
Extra Deep might be a more appropriate choice for darker
skin tones.
Wait at least three hours before taking a bath or
shower after the first application. For the longest
lasting tan, try not to take a shower for at least 8
hours after the first coat. For this reason, you may
find it most convenient to apply sunless tanning lotion
right before going to bed.
If you find yourself in a pinch for time, aerosol
tanning sprays are an easy and convenient way to refresh
a sunless tan. Simply spray the areas that you want to
refresh evenly all over.
If you follow the guidelines above, it should be a snap
to apply the sunless tanning lotion of your choice.
Everyone loves the look of a healthy glowing tan.
Fortunately for your skin, you can easily purchase that
look in a bottle without damaging your health.
