Easy Procedure For Sunless Tanning

By Haywood Hunter


Sunless tanning is a healthier option of self-tanning that helps an individual obtain a dark skin color without using the harmful sunrays. Other techniques used in the past such as sun beds are now less popular among many people the world over. Reason here is that direct exposure to the sun can harm your body severely. Apart from the sunburns, it is quite possible to develop skin cancer due to the effects of the ultra violet rays. Currently, many products of sunless tanning are available in the market. They come in different forms, scents and of course, price ranges. An individual would be lost for choice when they decide to go shopping. This is why one has to research extensively before venturing into the market to avoid sunless tanning products randomly.

Rather than visit a spa or salon to have this procedure done, it is also possible to do it yourself within the comfort of your house. However, you have to be sure that you know all the steps and be very patient. It will not take a few minutes only as you anticipate but it is not that long either. Moisturize your body generously at least one week before your application. The body has to have enough moisture when applying sunless tanning products otherwise it will not be as effective as you would want. This process continues even to the morning of your application.

Next in the list is to exfoliate your body thoroughly. Most people do it a day before the d-day of Sunless Tanning. However, you can do it in the morning before applying the sunless tanning product. Pay attention to most of the bonny areas. Such included your ankles, knees and elbows. They must frustrate you by gaining an uneven tan. It helps in the smooth absorption of the product.

Exfoliation will be followed by a good bath. This will get rid of any dirt among other things. You will then have to dry the body very well. It has to be perfectly dry; no trace of water should be on your body when conducting the Sunless Tanning application process. You then have to move to a cool room for your application process.

It will be of help to have someone assist in this venture. Some parts are difficult to reach, especially the back part of your body. A friend or relative will be of great help in such instance.

Patience pays they say. Some people rush the sunless tanning process and end up messing everything. You have to give each body part the maximum attention it requires. Rushing will only make you lose focus and obtain an undesirable tan, mostly uneven.

Dilute the sunless tanning product with a lotion when using it on the elbows and ankles since they tend to absorb more. This means that they might become darker than the other body parts. You can also opt to use very little rather than dilute it.

Take your time and let your sunless tanning product dry before wearing clothes. To hasten the drying process, some people use their blow driers. Afterwards, it will help if you keep moisturizing. However, avoid exfoliating after the application as it can reduce the lifespan of the tan.
