Hints Of Achieving A Proper Fake Tan

By Haywood Hunter


Having tanned skin makes you appear sexy and healthy. In the past, getting it from the sun was the best way to getting your skin to appear dark and sexy. However, this does not work anymore as sunshine has been associated with skin cancer and ageing. The alternative, therefore is to get a fake tan on the skin.

There are professional salons that do tanning very well. Unfortunately, they are quite expensive. A good alternative would be to use self tanners. To tan the face, scrub and exfoliate it thoroughly. Mix moisturizer with the tanner in a fifty-fifty ratio. Apply evenly across the entire face and neck. Do not leave out any parts.

Allow it to be absorbed and to take effect for at least a couple of hours. You can then apply the bronzer to create a natural effect on the parts that get hit by the sun most like the nose, forehead and cheeks. When applying the tanner, do not miss the earlobes and upper ears. So often people forget to do these parts and they end up looking like elves.

If you choose to also tan the rest of the body, then start by exfoliating it too. Since dry skin absorbs excess tanner, make sure you pay extra attention to these parts. You must also shave as much as possible. Start by tanning your legs and hands, applying the tanner all over until they are completely covered. After that, work on the hips, stomach and torso.

Do not wash your hands after applying as this will take the tanner off the back of your hands. Instead, use a wet cloth to wipe it off your palms and in between the fingers. For extra effect, you may also use a body shimmer. Just use it on the arms and legs, the rest of the body does not really need it.

Be sure to use the right tanner on your body. There are different types like face, airbrush, cream, bronzing gels and enhancers. You can use these to crossfade and develop natural effects on your skin. To do this, use lotion to assist you in the process.

If you mess up, do not panic. Just use astringent toner or toothpaste to fix the problem. You can also exfoliate to even out parts that are patch. If the fake tan is not dark enough, just repeat the procedure.
