We all know sunbathing and tanning beds are horrible for our skin and health; but we can't help but want a bronze glow. Luckily, there's sunless tanning. Spray tans enable us to get natural sun-kissed skin, without the hazardous effects of the sun. To get a perfect, long-tasting tan, follow these tips:
Shave Ahead of Time
For a smooth, streak-free tan, shave or wax at least 24 hours beforehand. Shaving in advance gives the pores time to close. If you shave after tanning, you may remove some of the tan, making it uneven.
Exfoliate
Prepare for your spray tan by exfoliating your skin. While exfoliating is important for all skin tones, lighter skin can make a blotchy tan more obvious. Exfoliate your entire body to remove dead skin cells and provide a clean slate for your tan.
Remove Any Product
Shower on the day of your appointment to get rid of any product, including lotion, makeup, perfume, and deodorant. Your skin needs to be a clean canvas so it can properly absorb the St. Tropez sunless tanning solution. During your shower, avoid products containing moisturizing ingredients and oil, including bar soap.
Hydrate
Hydrated skin is important for maintaining your tan. Wait at least eight hours after tanning before showering. Then bath in cool or lukewarm water, and regularly moisturize to hydrate your skin. Also drink plenty of water to keep your body and skin hydrated.
