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.

You will find many brands and types available so you need to find one that will give you a natural look. An ingredient called Dihydroxyacetone or DHA is used to darken the skin. This is present in all the fake tan products.

Some products leave the skin looking orange, a far from natural state. Some have a rather unpleasant odor that tell everyone your tan is fake. Others fade very quickly so you have to spend extra time to re apply the product. Streaks and stains can be left by some of them so careful choice is important.

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.

Certain parts of the body sometimes become darker than the tan overall. To avoid this on the face, which is always on view, then apply an eye cream just under the eyes. Do not try to darken the face too much or you will end up with a look that is not natural.

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.

Exfoliate the rest of your body and then repeat the process. Apply the product carefully, moving up the body and concentrating on one limb at a time. You will need several minutes for the tan to dry before you put on clothes. Do not exercise for a few hours. Otherwise the tan may streak.

There is a huge list of self tanning products on the market. There are milks, mousses, gels and sprays. Of course, the lotion is as popular as ever. Whatever your type of skin there will be a product just for you that will be absorbed into your skin to give a natural effect. Buy a fake tan and make yourself feel good!
