Essential Things To Carry Out Before And After Applying A Suntan Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


UV-free tanning enables you to have that radiant and eye-catching glow that makes it seem like you just spent the weekend at the beach. This is true in particular if the best indoor suntan lotion is applied. Aside from choosing a brand that is trusted by many all over the plant, it's also a must that you do a few things before applying the product as well as after doing so.

Cleaning the skin has to be done before you apply the sunless tanner. The most important ingredient used called DHA can be absorbed better if your skin is free of any dirt and grime. That is why before you grab the bottle of your preferred tanner and apply its contents all over your body, make sure that you just stepped foot outside the shower.

Get rid of unwanted dead cells with the use of a loofah or scrub. Exfoliating is best done while you are having your shower. In case you have the money to spare for an exfoliating body gel, purchase a bottle of this product. It is commonly made by an indoor tanner manufacturer. Because it is used before tanning indoors, you can be sure that it won't leave an oily residue.

Shave the skin most especially after hitting the shower. If you apply your preferred fake tanning lotion without doing this beforehand, you might end up with a mottled look. The product you rub on may collect on those unwanted facial and body hairs and cause the skin surrounding them to end up darker. If waxing is your preferred method, do it at least a day ahead.

Grab a bottle of your daily moisturizer and apply some of it on your knees and elbows. This helps keep these parts from sporting a deeper hue as they tend to soak up more DHA due to their dryness and texture. You may also smear moisturizer on your fingernails especially if you don't plan on putting on latex gloves or barrier cream while applying the UV-free tanner.

Once you are through smoothing on the sunless tanning product on your body, see to it that it remains there for 6-8 hours. This means that you have to skip taking a shower just to get rid of that unmistakable odor that DHA tends to produce while it is developing. It also means that you have to avoid doing all sorts of physical activities that leave you sweaty afterwards.

Smooth on your preferred hand and body moisturizer on a regular basis once the color you are expecting shows up. This helps slow down the process of exfoliation as it keeps the cells properly hydrated all the time. By delaying the skin's sloughing off, it's possible for you to sport the lovely sun-kissed glow for as long as 5 to 7 days.

Exfoliating has to be done once more the moment you notice that the color is no longer as intense as before. This helps remove too much dead skin cells that tend to make the fake tan look blotchy. It's a good idea to have the skin's topmost surface polished once again especially if you wish to reapply the tanner to bring back the intense shade.
