With the recent surge in the popularity of tanning, many persons are flocking to salons to use tanning booths or beds to build and maintain a healthy tan, but persons are still leery of the effects of ultraviolet light, and other persons simply cannot afford to pay for tanning sessions. One of the best alternatives to indoor tanning is sunlses tanning, which offers a realistic looking tan from a bottle. These products come in cream, gel, or spray-on form, and tehre are benefits and drawbacks to each. If you choose spray-on sunless tanning, a nubmer of things can be done to improve the results.
You can have your tan spraeyd on at a tanning salon, or you can apply it yourself. Whichever option you choose, here are a couple of tips for spray tanning, to make sure the application goes smoothly.1. Exfoliate - All the self-tanner in the world will do you no good if it attaches itself to dead skin that's about to come off your body!
Use a loofah sponge in the bath the night before you self-tan to remove these dead skin cells.2. Moisturize - Applying a good moisturizer a couple of hours before you self tan is a great way to make sure your skin is ready to accept the self-tanner.3. Choose your clothes carefully - You should pick clothes that cover all the parts you do not wish to tan. Self-tanning nude is not recommended for newcomers, cause the rseults can be unpredictable.
Make sure you seelct tight fitting clothes so that the self-tanner cannot go under your sleeves.
You should also choose dark colored clothes, for spray tanners will stain light clothes.4. Use gloves - Nobody looks good with orange palms, so when you spray tanner on your hands in order to tan your face, don a pair of latex gloves to prevent stains.5. If you're going to a tanning salon, follow the instructions!
Self-tanning booths typically have a handout, so read up, and make sure you know what to do!6. BLOT - After applying your spray tan, you will need to blot your skin with a towel to catch any drips.7. Stand still - Standing still for about 30 seconds after a self-tanning booth application will ensure that your tan dries evenly. While it may take a lot longer to dry completely, the first minute or more is when you run a real risk of rubbing off the self-tanner before it has a chacne to work.8. Protect your feet - Because they typically get less sun than the rest of you, your feet are paler and may get dark faster. If you're sparying yourself, go lightly on the feet. If you're using a booth, use the paepr booties (usually offered by staff) to protect your feet and apply a self-tanner after on to ensure you get the right shade.© 2004-2005 www.Tanning-Advisor.Com.
