Do you want a gorgeous glow without damaging the skin from ultraviolet rays? You simply need to select the best sunless tanning product and follow some simple tips. Those who are not getting help from a professional should use a good self-tanner.
Choose Your Formula
Sunless tanners can be different for the face and the body because spray lotions work better on the face than the entire body.
Here are the goof-proof options that are available for you:
Self-Tanning Moisturizers
You can get a good tanning result by applying self-tanning moisturizers that don’t contain a lot of DHA. Moreover, you can apply the self-tanning moisturizers every day to get a sun-kissed glow.
Self-tanning moisturizers are best for getting only a hint of tanned color. If you have never applied any self-tanning product before, then self-tanning moisturizers are best to get started.
Self-Tanning Lotions and Creams
You should find indoor tanning lotion for face because tanners don’t absorb into the skin instantly. The skin tanning lotions and creams are popularly used by both beginners and practitioners since it perfectly blends and gives a natural-looking tan.
Sunless Mousses and Gels
Sunless mousses and gels are tanners that are lightweight and fast drying. You can layer these formulas easily and get good coverage. These tanners are best for people who regularly apply tanning products and have a good experience. Sunless mousses have to blend well so that the color gets absorbed.
Tanning Sprays
Tanning sprays are used to get tan in larger areas quickly. However, you have to apply the spray evenly from a distance of 6 inches in a circular motion. These sprays can be applied to hard-to-reach areas. For instance, you can spray the tanning product in the back. The results you get are similar to an airbrush tan.
How to Apply a Designer Self-Tanning Lotion?
Prepare Your Skin
When you apply tan on the face and body that includes dirt and oil, the tanning result won’t look even and natural. You have to prepare the skin by cleaning the skin and removing dead skin cells. Apply moisturizer at least 8 hours before starting the tanning process. Then, take a bath to get clear skin.
Pat Yourself Dry
Use a soft towel to make sure the skin is completely dry. Avoid applying any product that can block the tanning effect.
Pull on Some Gloves
You need to wear gloves so that the nails don’t get dark and start looking unnatural. Wearing gloves will help you properly apply the designer skin tanning lotion all over the body.
Work from the Bottom Up
Start applying the tanning lotion from the legs because it will make the application process easier. You can move upward by applying the lotion in a circular motion.
Gently When Applying on Face
While applying the self-tanning product on the face, be extremely gentle and start from the forehead. Make sure the product is applied evenly to get the best tanning effect.
Apply on Your Hands
Lastly, apply the lotion to your hands. If you skip the cleaning process, the hand can be unevenly tanned and look unnatural.
Leave It on for Few Hours
Read the instructions on the product to know how much time the lotion should be left on the skin exactly. We will recommend you leave the lotion on for at least 7 hours to get a darker tan.
Maintain the Tan
After getting the perfect tan, you should maintain the tanning result by using a good moisturizer every day.
