Things That You Should Carry Out Prior To Applying A Self Tanner

By Haywood Hunter


Indoor tanning is a risk-free and an effective way to enjoy a stunning complexion. A self tanner is available in the form of spray, lotion, cream or foam. Regardless of which one you like, all of them rely on the same ingredient known as DHA. There are certain steps you have to do just before using the product of your preference in order to end up with a fantastic outcome.

Clean the skin thoroughly by taking a shower. To ensure that nothing can keep DHA from being absorbed and doing its job, make sure to get rid of those unwanted dirt and body oils. Skin that's fresh from the shower allows you to enjoy a smoother tan afterwards. Otherwise, areas with unwanted grime may end up with a lighter brown shade than the rest of your body.

Exfoliate to get rid of too much dead skin cells. In order to give you a gorgeous complexion, DHA has to darken dead cells sitting on the uppermost part of the skin. It's a must for this layer to be even so that the indoor tanning solution of your preference could come up with a uniform color. You may use a loofah or a body exfoliating gel made specially for indoor tanning.

Getting rid of unwanted body hairs is another thing you need to do before the use of any indoor tanning product. If you don't shave the skin, the tanner may only pool around hair strands, resulting in a blotchy outcome. Shaving also helps in providing added exfoliation to really make the layer of dead skin cells smoother.

If your preferred hair removal method is waxing, it's a good idea to have it done at least a day before having an indoor tan. This helps ensure that there are no more waxy substance left that could keep DHA from working completely. Also, allowing at least 24 hours to pass allows any form of skin irritation to heal.

Ensure that the skin is dry before applying the lotion, spray, foam or cream. Needless to say, excess water can weaken DHA and leave you with a less desirable outcome. Sure it can be very exciting to get started with the process so you may enjoy a gorgeous skin complexion right away. However, it's a must for you to ensure that the areas to be tanned indoors are completely dry.

Do not apply any of the cosmetic products you use daily. It's true that DHA present in indoor tanners emit a fishy odor while it is springing into action. This is perfectly normal and soon disappears once the active ingredient has developed. It isn't recommendable to apply cologne or any other product just to mask the characteristic odor given off by DHA.

Save your knees, elbows, ankles and the rest from ending up darker by applying moisturizing lotion just before using the indoor tanner of your choice. This is the only cosmetic product that you should use beforehand. Take note that it has to be applied on dry areas only to prevent the excessive absorption of DHA which could result in a very dark coloration.
