How To Prepare The Skin Prior To Application Of A Sun Self Tanning Solution

By Haywood Hunter


If wanting a beautiful tan for the summer without the damage that can be related to the solar UV rays, a Sun Self Tanning kit offers to provide a great look while protecting the body. Sun Self Tanning offers several top of the line products that can give excellent results. However, in order to obtain the best results using these products is essential for the user to make proper preparation. Preparing the skin first can make a difference between a streaky mess and natural tan.

Avoid use of wax to remove unwanted hair the same day one will use Sun Self Tanning. These waxes leave coatings on the skin that do not allow the tan to develop as it should. If you have waxed already, it is important to wait at least 24 hours before applying the tanner product in order to get an even tan.

Exfoliation of each area where the Sun Self Tanning product is to be applied. If the product is applied to dead skin cells, when they slough off, the result will be an uneven tan. Use caution in choosing exfoliation products. Salt or sugar scrubs contain oils that remain on the skin. These oils will keep the skin from absorbing the tan. Proper exfoliation before application ensures the tan is long lasting.

Take time to shower with warm water and mild soap. Make sure the water temperature is neither too cold or too hot. Burning the skin with water causes the top layer of skin to die. Cold water can cause pores to close so the Sun Self Tanning product has a difficult time absorbing. Do not use a moisturizing body wash before using Sun Self Tanning, as it can make absorption of the product more difficult.

Shave the legs before applying the Sun Self Tanning product. While waxing is out, unwanted hair needs to be removed. Shaving also helps with exfoliation. Applying the tanner over hair will cause a blotchy tan. For men using the Sun Self Tanning kit a more natural result will be achieved if the chest and arms are shaved first.

It is important to ensure the body is completely dry before applying the Sun Self Tanning solution. Moisture can cause the product to slide off one's skin before it changes the color. While knees and elbows tend to over absorb the product and should be protected with a small amount of moisturizing lotion, the rest of the body should be dry. This will give the best results with the kit to tan the skin.

Wear disposable gloves when applying the Sun Self Tanning solution. The gloves prevent too much of the product from absorbing in a person's skin of the hands and causing them to be darker than one wants. Once the product is applied to the remainder of the body, the gloves should be removed and the product applied to the hands.

Sun Self Tanning solutions offer a safe and beautiful tan if they are use correctly. Consumers will want to take time to read and follow any manufacture's instructions that are provided with the tanner. These directions can ensure the tan that is received is the best possible and lasts as long as possible.
