Simple Strategies For Applying Your Sunless Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


The ideal tanning product for you would highly depend on your skin tone and preferences. The good thing is that the correct formula of applying all tanners is the same. The most crucial thing is to ensure that your skin is spotlessly clean. Take a bath using warm water and soap. The use of cleansers and body scrubs is also recommended to ensure that your skin is free from dead cells and rough marks. If you grow hair on your legs, be sure to shave before using your sunless tanning lotion.

The idea soaps, scrubs and cleansers to use before tanning are those that contain neither salt nor sugar. These components enrich the skin, though they may contain oils that block poles. Take note of the fact that blocked poles could hinder proper absorption of your tanner into the skin causing blemishes or demarcations.

Once you are clean and dry, the next step would be applying a moisturizer. Invest in quality moisturizers in order to get the finest results possible. During your application, see to it that you pay special attention to the elbows and knees. These areas have tougher skin that also tends to dry quickly. It would be a splendid idea to apply an extra coat of moisturizer on these areas.

When applying your tanner, do not use your bare hands. Always wear gloves to avoid staining your palms. Then again, you must see to it that the gloves you use do not have power. What you must note is that any foreign impurity or element could cause a reaction leading to orange colored demarcations.

The right way to apply a tanner is from the bottom up. You need to start with the feet and end with the arms. During the application, use regular circular motions to ensure that your lotion is well spread on every area of your body. Always remember that smearing too much lotion on one area could make create a patch that is more tanned than other areas.

Dealing with the face can be quite challenging because of the numerous features like the nose, eyes and mouth. If you have never used a tanner before, using dots to spread the product could pose a great challenge. Simply spread the tanner on your palm and spread it out evenly just like you would when using a moisturizer. Take your time to feather out the temples, hairline and jawline carefully before winding up.

It remains imperative for you to read the instructions on your product. Some formulas dry out and react fully within a maximum of ten minutes. Then again, there are those that require more patience. Get to know the proper way of using a product with the aim of ascertaining that you do not make any careless blunders.

For you to be assured of a proper tan, it makes sense to take a shower only after 8 hours have lapsed. You may also want to avoid sweaty activities such as a workout at the gym for at least 12 hours. Within this period, you can be certain that the product has reacted fully and you can safely clean it off.
