Hints Of Achieving A Proper Fake Tan On

By Haywood Hunter


Being tanned helps you to have a skin that appears healthy and sexy. It has long been believed that to get a good tan, one should go outside and have some time in the sun. This is not always the case. In fact, many people are now considering getting a fake tan instead since the sun has been known to cause cancer as well as causing us to age faster.

If you cannot afford to get tanned in a salon, you can use your own self tanner, at least on the face. To do this, you should pull your hair up and tie it. Next, you clean and exfoliate the skin and apply under-eye cream. You then blend moisturizer and self tanner in equal portions and apply all over the neck and face. Make sure you apply just enough to give natural results.

Allow it to be absorbed and to take effect for at least a couple of hours. You can then apply the bronzer to create a natural effect on the parts that get hit by the sun most like the nose, forehead and cheeks. When applying the tanner, do not miss the earlobes and upper ears. So often people forget to do these parts and they end up looking like elves.

For the rest of your body, take the following steps. You should exfoliate the skin very well first as you take a shower. Make sure you concentrate on the elbows and knees very well. Also ensure you shave. Start by applying the tanner on your limbs first, and cover every part. After that, do your torso, hips and stomach.

Washing hands will likely get the tanner off the back of your hands. To clean up after applying, use a wet piece of cloth instead. Wipe your palms and the middle of your fingers very well. You can opt to use a body shimmer on the hands and legs for extra vibrancy.

It is very important to pick the correct tanner. Several types exist, including face, airbrush, cream, enhancers or bronzing gels. A common way of getting a natural look is to apply them, with the assistance of lotion, to create a crossfade effect.

Do not be too scared if you mess up. You can remove the messed up parts using toothpaste or astringent toners. Repeat the process if your fake tan is not dark enough.
