A Few Guidelines On How To Apply A Sunless Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


People are different when it comes to their skin tone and the kinds of tanners that would be best for them. Even so, once you have your product, the rules of applying are the same. The most basic step would be ascertaining that your skin is sparkling clean. Begin by taking a warm shower using soap. It would also be an added advantage for you to use a body scrub and a cleanser just to ensure that you get rid of all the rough spots and dead skin. Any hair on the legs must also be shaved before applying a sunless tanning lotion.

When choosing soap, cleansers or body scrub, there is a need for you to ensure that you find products that are free from salt or sugar. Such components are not bad only that they tend to contain oils that may hinder even tanning of your skin. Remember that it will be essential for your poles to be open in order for your skin to effectively and evenly absorb the tanner.

A moisturizer should then be applied on the clean dry skin. Ascertain that you use a quality moisturizer in order to avoid demarcations caused by dryness. Areas such as the knees and ankles should be applied double coats of moisturizer because they tend to be tougher and dry quickly.

Whenever you are applying a tanner, you must always wear gloves. This is one way of ensuring that your palms are protected from staining. Choose gloves that are powder free in order to avoid contaminating your tanner with components that may hinder perfect tanning of the skin.

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.

The face can be quite complicated to deal with. In this part, you will want to make certain you get it right. Instead of dotting your cheeks, chin, nose and forehead with the lotion, spread it smoothly on your palm and make a small application on every area. In order to avoid looking like you are wearing a mask, ensure that you feather out your hairline, jawline and temples.

Tanning formulas are different when it comes to the amount of time they take to react fully. In this regards, it is always important to read the instructions on your package before you begin applying a product. Some products react and dry quickly while others could backfire if you do not give them at least 30 min before you slip into cloths.

One of the best kept secrets of ascertaining that your tan retains that perfect look is ensuring that you do not go to the gym for at least 12 hours. Avoid sweaty activities and do not shower before 8 hours have lapsed. This would ascertain that the product has reacted fully before cleaning it off.
