How To Glow The Skin Using A Sunless Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


Self tanning products are offering a safe option for tinting the skin without causing negative effects. It is now advisable that people refrain from basking under sun or using the tanning beds to glow their skin. With a sunless tanning lotion, it is able to eliminate the adverse effects that arise when people use tan beds or bask in sun to tint their skin. The lotions are made using ingredients, which are capable of giving skin a dark complexion that is beautiful without necessarily causing harm.

The good thing is that many products have been developed including sprays, lotions, creams, and mousses that can transform the skin. The products contain an active ingredient known as dihydroxyacetone which when it penetrates the skin reacts with the amino acids to change the look of dermis. It is a process that has to be done properly failure to which the results may look undesirable.

Improper use of tan products can lead to streaks and ugly marks. A pre-application procedure is needed to clean the body and open up the pores. Proper shaving of thick hair on body such as the chest will enhance even distribution of tan. The presence of hair on your skin can affect the way in which a tan lotion spreads on surface.

Tan beds are also not safe since some of the UV light they produce could be damaging. The only safer option which people can have is by using the self tanning products. Nonetheless, people may find difficulties in applying these products. There are certain procedures if not followed could lead to unimpressive tints.

The skin may develop streaks and other ugly marks. It may also appear too orange. Some skin is just too hard to absorb tan products and it needs to be moisturized such as the hands and elbows. Although use of moisturizers is not advisable, there is need to ensure the dry and rough parts are moisturized.

Moisture may lighten a tan lotion and make it drip over surface causing marks that look unsightly. If you are going to shave, make sure you do a day or two before applying a self tanner. Immediately after you have shaved, the skin is very sensitive and if you use the tanner products, it may cause irritation.

Just because your friend is using a specific tan product does not mean that it is good for you. People have different types of skin and the formulations of these products work differently. In addition, there are different shades you can get from specific lotions. Depending on your skin types and the kind of color you want to obtain, you can choose the right products.

Make sure that you prepare the skin for proper application. Removing debris on skin such as oils, salts, and dirt will open up the pores. The dead skin cells on skin could also prevent smooth and even application of tanner. It is advisable that you consider exfoliating your dermis to ensure the pores are open. When you exfoliate, you expose a fresh skin layer that is able to effectively absorb the tan.
