General Info On How To Achieve Long Lasting Tanning Lotion Results

By Haywood Hunter


You do not have to be a rocket scientist to know that the sun is bad for your skin. This explains the reason why many are turning to self tanning lotions and such like sunless tans to achieve a long lasting tanning lotion effect as that which they would have got from tanning beds or through sun bathing.

If the current statistics are anything to go by, tanning beds are equally as harmful as sun bathing. Studies indicate that they increase one's cancer risk by a whopping 75%, hence the reason why more people are going for lotions, whose effect is equally long lasting. When applied well and after a series of trial and error, you can avoid the unsightly streaks on your body and especially the legs, and end up with even, long lasting results.

The two main reasons why most people end up with unsightly streaks is because for one, they chose the wrong fake tan supplies to use. And secondly, because they did not follow basic application and body preparation guidelines. Here is what you need to know and do for a long lasting tanning lotion outcome.

The first secret for long lasting tanning lotion results is to ex-foliate several days before application. As a matter of fact, this is one of the most important things to do. Ex-foliation helps your skin shed off the top dead layer such that the tanner will not be working its way through the dead scaly layer.

Secondly, you need to ensure you moisturize your skin for 5-7 days prior to tanning for a long lasting effect. Moisturizing your skin using a hand and body lotion helps guarantee a long lasting tanning lotion effect and even results. While at it, you might want to do a full body moisturization, paying close attention to parts of the body that are known to dry out abnormally e. G. The knees and ankles.

If you do not moisturize these parts, they will seep in your tanning lotion because such body parts are known to be overly dry, and the results would be the dappled coloring you see most people ending up with. When you enrich the skin, though, with enough moisture, no doubt you will have an even and admirable long lasting tanning lotion effect.

Avoid applying the lotion while in a steamy bathroom or when your body is hot. Another important thing that will guarantee long lasting tanning lotion effects is applying the lotion when you are completely cooled off from the bathroom. Avoid applying while in a steamy bathroom since it will melt off the lotion, leading to drips and ultimately the unwanted streaks.

You also need to know that self tanning lotions will take more time to dry than other tanners, but the good news is the results are always longer lasting. As such, you should take as much time as possible with the application, starting with one part of the body and working your way liberally all through. Move slow and pay close attention only to the part you are working on for even, long lasting tanning lotion results.

The application of self tanning lotions is not rocket science, but it certainly takes time and lots of practice. Even so, when you follow the above-mentioned suggestions, put in some little patience, and hit the internet for tips and tricks on applying self tanning lotions and how to get long lasting results, no doubt you will have the most long lasting tanning lotion results, and more importantly, your sunless tan will be even and streak-free.
