Hints Of Achieving A Good Fake Tan On

By Haywood Hunter


Having tanned skin makes you appear sexy and healthy. In the past, getting it from the sun was the best way to getting your skin to appear dark and sexy. However, this does not work anymore as sunshine has been associated with skin cancer and ageing. The alternative, therefore is to get a fake tan on the skin.

The best way to getting tanned is to go to the salon. However, this is often very expensive, yet there are good ways of getting tanned using self tanners. If you decide to tan your face, start by scrubbing your skin and then applying a blend of moisturizer and tanner in equal parts. Make sure you cover the entire neck and face.

After that, you leave it do develop for up to three hours before applying the bronzer. This is applied on the nose, forehead and cheeks. This is to make the color tone even, just like the sun would make these parts slightly darker. Make sure you cover the earlobes and upper ears too, or else you might pull off a very unnatural look. Do not forget to wash your hands thoroughly after every step.

If you want to tan the whole body, then after doing the face you should proceed to exfoliate the rest of your skin. Pay particular attention to the knees and elbows. After you have done this and shaved as much as possible, apply the tanner on your hands and legs, ensuring they are all covered. You can then shift your attention to the hips and stomach.

Do not wash your hands after applying as this will take the tanner off the back of your hands. Instead, use a wet cloth to wipe it off your palms and in between the fingers. For extra effect, you may also use a body shimmer. Just use it on the arms and legs, the rest of the body does not really need it.

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.

If you mess up, do not panic. Just use astringent toner or toothpaste to fix the problem. You can also exfoliate to even out parts that are patch. If the fake tan is not dark enough, just repeat the procedure.
