Preparing The Skin For The Application Of Your Self Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


Choosing to have a sunless tan in the comfort of your own home is a smart move. It saves you from getting too much UV light and risking your health. It's also very convenient as you no longer have to visit a local salon. Prior to the application of a top-notch self tanning lotion, the skin has to be prepared. Doing so allows you to enjoy a long-lasting fake suntan that looks just like the real deal.

Clean your skin by taking a shower. The presence of dirt and grime prevents DHA in the indoor tanner from being fully absorbed. It is a good idea for you to step foot inside the shower at least 6 hours prior to the tanner's application for the attainment of an impressive result.

The presence of excess dead cells on the skin's topmost layer can cause a patchy result. That is why you should also remove them in the shower through exfoliating. It's true that the use of a loofah can help polish the skin. However, sunless tanning experts say that the best product to use is an exfoliating body gel formulated specifically for sunless tan aficionados.

Get rid of excess body hair before obtaining a tan indoors. Applying the sunless tanner on hairy areas tends to cause patches to show up. You don't want this to happen as it can easily reveal that your tan is obtained indoors. No matter if you like to shave or wax, it's a good idea to carry out the procedure at least 24 hours before applying the tanner to let irritated skin to heal.

The application of cosmetic products should be avoided. Anything that you place on the skin can prevent DHA from being absorbed completely. Make sure that you skip using perfume, makeup, lotion and others just before you apply the tanner of your choice.

Apply a thin layer of your preferred moisturizing lotion on really dry skin areas. Dry areas tend to absorb more of the tanner's DHA than the rest. This makes them end up darker, something you don't want to happen because it doesn't look flattering at all. Just before you use the tanner of your choice, apply a thin layer of moisturizing lotion on your ankles, knees, elbow and others that are too dry.

Preparing your skin is important each time you wish to tan indoors. This is the secret to the attainment of a fake sun-kissed glow that can impress. Certainly, applying the product as evenly as possible allows for a streak-free result.
