Reasons Why A Self Tanner Can Be A Better Selection

By Haywood Hunter


Employing a self tanner product will be a significantly more healthy replacement for tanning facilities and sunbathing because it means that contact with dangerous ultraviolet light is not needed. The formulation of such tanning creams have advanced considerably in recent times, and many will appear natural whenever put on correctly.

The main key to success whenever using a tanning lotion or cream is spreading the product evenly on the body so that it does not have dark or light areas. Additionally, the area on the body should be exfoliated first. This can ensure that the user will get a tan which is very even looking.

Always hydrate any regions that are drier and rough to improve the likelihood of success. It typically consists of your elbows and knees. Exfoliation along with moisturizing should start a few days before you intend to put on the product. This will help the cream adhere to the body easier.

Right before using the lotion, it's recommended to take a shower using a gentle body scrub. This will smooth out any rough areas and remove dead skin cells. Additionally, it's suggested to shave or wax the legs as well to be certain that they will be at their smoothest prior to the application.

Whenever actually applying these products, always stored in a single area and apply to your skin as smoothly as possible. Make sure that you are avoiding your toes and fingers because these areas don't tan effectively. Whenever finished, make sure everything is thoroughly dry before you touch any surfaces including your clothes or other objects. This process will usually take around an hour or so.

Finally, after you've applied the self tanner always wash the hands thoroughly using soap and water. This helps in avoiding turning the palms to an orange looking color. Additionally, it's recommended you test small portions of your skin first.
