About Quality Self Tanning Products

By Haywood Hunter


Everyone looks better when tanned. The body looks slimmer, eyes are shinier, and every skin type looks more beautiful. Summer is always too short, but most people still prefer natural sunbathing, however dangerous it can be. It's hard to keep your bronze when summer is gone, but various self tanning products can help you achieve desired bronze shades.

Another reason for avoiding direct sunlight, especially when the sun is strongest, is its effect on your skin appearance. Frequent exposure to sun rays causes premature skin aging, spots, burns and other skin damages you would rather avoid. Careful sunbathing in the morning or late in the afternoon is something else. This can be really beneficial for your health, but you won't get deeply tanned this way.

You probably have several solarium salons in your area. It takes some time and money, but you can achieve desired tan there. The problem is the price, on the first place. One session is not nearly enough, and frequent exposure can also be dangerous for your skin, especially if you have really sensitive one. This treatment can also speed up your skin aging process.

Self-tanners are perfectly safe to use and provide natural looking tan in no time at all. Good quality gels, creams and lotions are designed for all skin types, and available in different nuances and shades. They contain natural ingredients, including moisturizers, and are really gentle to your skin, even if it is really sensitive. Results are lovely and the price is affordable.

Instant tanning creams, gels, sprays and foams are especially popular. They give instant results, and the color can be washable or permanent. They feel incredibly light on your skin and have pleasant smell. Easy to apply and available in numerous shades and nuances, instant tanning products are really easy to use. If you need to get tanned fast, you just have to choose your favorite nuance.

Overnight products need one to three hours to achieve final shade. The skin gradually becomes darker, until your desired shade is reached. Most people apply this type of products in the evening. Next morning, the color is perfectly set and attractive. It won't leave any stains on your clothes or linens. Spray applicators are very practical. Different sets are really affordable, and they contain exfoliate gels and moisturizers as well.

Today, most quality tanners contain DHA. This sugar based component reacts with dead skin cells on skin surface, and this reaction causes skin coloration. More DHA in your product means deeper bronze nuances. This reaction takes place on skin surface only, and the color will eventually fade away, in up to two weeks, depending on the product.

Before applying the product, you need to exfoliate. Pay special attention to rough skin areas such as heels and elbows. You need to exfoliate before each re-application as well, to remove all dead skin cells and to make your skin smooth. Use moisturizers every day. If you would like to have even more natural looking tan, use a special bronzer on some areas, according to instruction you will find on the package.
