Discover Safe Self Tanning For A Desirable Body

By Haywood Hunter


If you want a body that looks good then you can use a self tanning lotion. This avoids trying to get a tan by lying in the sun for a long time and being exposed to harmful rays. By using a fake product you can achieve a great color safely.

There are numerous brands and types on sale so you have to make sure that the product you use will result in an even tan that looks like the real thing. All of them contain Dihydroxyacetone that is known as DHA. It is this ingredient that darkens the skin.

Some tanning products have a rather unpleasant odor. Some make your skin look orange and not at all like the real tan. Others do no last as long so you have to re apply it more frequently. This is time consuming and costly. Be careful to avoid some products that streak or color your clothes.

In order to avoid a disaster, it is advisable to try out your product in a discrete area of your body. If you do make a mistake only you will see it! There are special tanning products available just for the face. Cleanse the area before you exfoliate. This will remove flaky and dead skin and help the final effect to be a good one. Delay using a moisturizer at this stage.

You may find that some parts of you body will be tanned to a darker shade even though you have been careful. In order to avoid this effect on your face, first apply an eye cream under your eyes. You are aiming for one shade darker on your face to ensure a natural finish.

Now you can mix some moisturizer to your fake lotion. This will help you to apply more smoothly and will nourish the skin. Cover the ears, too. The tan will gradually darken over the next few hours. Remove all fake tan from your hands by washing very carefully.

Next, exfoliate the rest of the body in the same way as you did for your face. Move up through your body, covering one limb at a time. Make sure you allow the tan to dry before putting on your clothes. If you exercise within a few hours of the application you may spoil the effect by causing it to streak.

The range of self tanning products on sale is vast. Types include gels, sprays mousses, milks and the ever popular lotion. There is one that will be suitable for your skin, that is lightweight and easily absorbed. Take the plunge and enjoy a new look!
