How To Apply A Self Tanner For A Attractive Glow Of The Skin

By Haywood Hunter


With the problems caused by sunrays on skin, people are now turning to use of indoor tanning lotions that can help glow and give the body a bronze appearance. If you want to get a gorgeous as well as golden bronze appearance on skin, you can use self tanner lotions that are safely formulated to enhance the look of your skin. To get the best results, it is essential you follow the application instructions properly.


The presence of oils and other forms of debris like dirt and dead cells can compromise the effect of the lotion. In addition, you have to exfoliate the skin to remove the extra skill cells and any scales of debris that may be present on your body. The dead skin cells and debris like oils can block the pores and prevent the tanning lotion from properly adhering to skin.

You might use a body scrub but ensure that you get one that is non- oil based. The oils on the body scrub can form a barrier that prevents the tan lotion from entering and penetrating the skin for a good effect. After you have cleansed and dried the skin, you also need to consider dabbing or blobbing areas such as the wrists, knees, elbows, ankles, and hands with use of a high quality moisturizer.

When you use a moisturizer, it helps in preventing the tan product from building and catching on patches of your skin. Besides, you also need to shave the areas that have hair, or wax the body skin. Shaving hair from skin helps clear the body and provide a clean surface for easy penetration and application of the lotion.

If you do not prepare the surface of skin properly, you may get unimpressive results from the tanning. You might have a skin that has streaks and patches of dark and white spots especially in the areas within the elbows and knees. The areas on the folded or creased skin such as elbows, ankles, hands, and wrists should be given enough emphasize when cleaning them.

An exfoliating scrub is helpful in sloughing off the dead or excess skin that is found in your body before you apply a lotion. All these steps are aimed at achieving a clean and smooth skin surface that will help in producing the tan results you need in your body. If you have used a self tanning product before, and probably skipped the part of exfoliating the skin, then you might have observed some streaks or little white dots appearing on body skin.

If you have had a hot shower, you also find that the body tends to sweat. This is something you want to deal with first because the sweating makes the skin to be wet. You will still need to dry the skin again until you have no sweat coming out. As a precaution, you should use gloves in order to avoid spreading the lotion on your hands and palms.

You might consider using the gloves that are used by hairdressers when they dry hair. This is because they tend to be of good quality, and are specially designed for cosmetic makeup practices. The gloves are thick and can provide the protection you need while also allowing you to do the application and maneuver body skin parts easily.
