Tips For Using Self Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


If you would like to have a natural looking tan without the sun, there are many excellent products on the market today. If you have little experience with sunless tanning, it can be hard to choose the best lotions and get the kind of results that you really need. These self tanning lotion tips are here to help you.

Don't expect miracles with these kinds of products. The human skin is a living, breathing, dynamic organ, and is constantly renewing itself. Nothing will last for months at a time. In fact, you may need to re-apply your suntan cream about once a week or so. This insures that your tan looks good all year long.

There is some discrepancy as to which time of day is best to apply self suntan lotions. Many people prefer to use them in the mornings. This way they can be applied after showering. Evening applications can cause problems because they may wear off on bedding as you sleep, and this can stain sheets or pillow cases. Also, an evening shower will place additional wear on your suntan (that was applied in the morning). Morning showering and application may be the best option.

Some products have an odor that is difficult to live with. Before using, check to see what kind of odor is emitted by your cream. You can do this by reading online product reviews. You may find that some lotions have a mild odor that is even pleasant. That way, you can use your suntan cream all the time, without offending other members of the household.

You can swim on a regular basis and still enjoy a beautiful sunless tan. However, you should buy lotions that are made for people that spend a lot of time in water. Remember also, swimming will wear off a tan rather quickly, so you might need to re-apply as often as every two or three days, in some cases.

Some sunless suntan products may contain harsh chemicals and they can cause irritation to those with sensitive skin. To avoid this, always read labels and look for products that contain all natural ingredients. It is also a good idea to check for sensitivity by placing a small bit of cream on the arm or stomach. This will let you know if you skin is sensitive or not.

Skin exfoliation is usually recommended before applying self suntan lotions. This is the best way to get a tan that is even all over. You may exfoliate with shower sponges or wash cloths. Also, top companies also make exfoliant products to be used with their lotions, and this may be the best choice. Remember also to choose a lotion that contains natural skin moisturizers, to keep skin soft.

When you shop for a self tanning product do not let price be the main factor. You might save a lot of money with some lotions, but they may have a strong toxic odor. Also, some lotions may turn the skin orange and easily develop streaks in your tan. High quality products like the ones from Sun Laboratories may not be the cheapest, but you can be assured of excellent results.
