Glow With Self Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


People will go through great lengths to obtain a body color that looks like they have spent hours basking in the sun. Not everyone has the time to spend laying out, not to mention that exposure to UV rays can have many negative health repercussions. To get that golden glow with none of the risks, a self tanning lotion is a wonderful alternative.

Sunburns, spots of discoloration, leather skin and melanoma are just a few of the risks one takes when opting to lay in the sun. UV bulbs are just as dangerous, as they may increase one's chances of getting cancer by up to 75%. There are products available that can deliver a deep tan in a safe way.

Products of this sort are available in many formats, including sprays, creams, gels, milks and mousses. Lotions are perhaps one of the simplest ways to obtain darker skin. The process of building a tan that is beautiful, enduring and as close to natural as possible may seem difficult at first, but it does get easier with practice.

Having all the proper tools handy before beginning the process can lead to more pleasing results. One thing that is key to a good color is making sure one allows plenty of time. It can take between one to two hours to apply a smooth, even coating and allow it to dry completely so as not to get any of the coloring on towels, sheets or clothing.

Exfoliating should be performed daily for the week before application and especially on the day of, since it removes dead skin cells and provides a fresh layer to which the color may adhere. Any shaving one plans to do is best done at least an hour prior, and moisturizer needs to be used for a full seven days ahead of time, concentrating on rough areas like the ankles, knees and elbows. Following these tips will prime the dermis to accept the color easily.

Before beginning, pull hair up and away from the face and body, find a space that is free of moisture and steam and make sure the body is completely dry. To keep one's palms from becoming unnaturally colored, tight fitting gloves should be worn during application. Take time to apply the product carefully and slowly, focusing on each area individually and using swipes that are even, broad and going in the same direction.

Some sections of the skin tend to naturally be darker than others. Areas like the knees, ankles and elbows have thicker dermal layers with deep lines which retain more pigmentation than the thinner sections. Tanner should be mixed equally with moisturizer when applying to these harder zones in order to avoid getting a look that appears dirty.

Though a longer drying time is recommended for more solid results, fifteen minutes is the minimum one should wait before dressing after the process is complete. A damp cloth or quick shower should be sufficient to even out any dark spots or streaks that might have appeared. Building a base color by applying thin layers of tanner over a few days will help to avoid the odd orange tint that may occur with thick applications.
