Getting The Skin Ready For Your Favorite Sun Laboratorie Fake Tanning Product

By Haywood Hunter


Enjoying a fabulous fake suntan requires more than just reaching for that bottle of Sun Laboratorie tanner. There are certain things that need to be done first, particularly on your skin. Below are some tips on how to avoid a blotchy tan.

Indoor tanning is similar to creating a fabulous work of art. Your skin acts as the canvas and your chosen Sun Laboratorie tanner is the paint. Naturally, the finished product won't look right if the canvas isn't primed for what you put on its surface.

Skin exfoliation before using your chosen Sun Laboratorie self tanner is a very important task to carry out. DHA is the active ingredient found in a Sun Laboratorie indoor tanning product. It's a chemical that is capable of darkening the topmost part of skin which is made up of dead cells. Spreading the tanner on a patchy layer of dead cells is like inviting a cosmetic disaster to come your way. Provide DHA with a polished surface to work on by making sure you exfoliate thoroughly beforehand.

A Sun Laboratorie self tanner may not properly work if there's a film of oil sitting on your skin. This keeps DHA from being absorbed and completing its job. That is why you should avoid scrub solutions on the market which contain oils. It's a good idea to reach for a sponge or loofah instead. The Sun Laboratorie exfoliating gel may also be ordered, designed exclusively for this pre-tan task. Pay extra attention to the knees and elbows where dead skin cells tend to accumulate more.

Exfoliate in the shower for best results. Clean skin using a plain bar of soap with no fancy moisturizing ingredients. Rinse with warm water to ensure none of those sloughed off dead skin cells remain. There should be no residue sitting on the skin once you are through showering to ensure that the Sun Laboratorie tanning solution can complete its job as expected.

The removal of unwanted hair is another task that should be carried out before using your Sun Laboratorie tanning solution. It's not unlikely for you to end up with a blotchy fake suntan if you apply the product on a hairy surface. Shave beforehand to remove unwanted hair and provide added exfoliating effect. If waxing is the method preferred, have it done at least a day before tanning.

DHA found in Sun Laboratorie self tanner is absorbed more by the knees and elbows due to their dryness. It's for this reason why they usually end up darker than the rest of the body after the tanning product has completed its work. Prevent it by spreading a thin layer of moisturizing lotion on the knees and elbows to stop them from absorbing too much of the tanner which is applied next.

Put on a pair of gloves during the application of Sun Laboratorie tanner. Doing so saves your palms from coming into contact with DHA which can leave them with a deep brown stain. Besides, the self tanner you are using shouldn't be applied on areas that don't darken when you sit in the sun. In case you are allergic to latex, wear a pair of gloves out of plastic.
