How To Prepare One's Skin Before Applying 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.

Do not wax to remove hair the same day Sun Self Tanning is used. The products in hair removal wax leave a coating on the skin that will prevent the tan from developing properly. If a person has already waxed, he or she should wait a minimum of 24 hours after using the wax before applying the solution for best results.

Take time to exfoliate every area where the Sun Self Tanning tan is to be applied. Dead skin cells can absorb the product and then slough off, leaving an uneven result. While it is important to exfoliate, avoid salt and sugar scrubs. These products contain an oil that will leave a residue on the skin. This oil makes it hard for the skin to absorb the tanner solution resulting in a streaky tan.

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 each area before applying a Sun Self Tanning agent. It is important that hair be cut as close to one's skin as possible. Shaving also helps to exfoliate the body. Attempting to apply the product over hair is one of the main reasons for blotchy tans. Men using the product will want to shave the chest and arms if applying to these areas.

Take time to dry the body completely after showering and shaving. Excess moisture can be an enemy of s Sun Self Tanning product, causing it to slide away before it is absorbed. Two exceptions are the knees and elbows. Since they tend to absorb more of the product and get a dirty look, try applying a small amount of moisturizer before applying the tanner. This helps to ensure an even tan.

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 products can provide a natural looking tan when applied properly. Be sure to read and follow any label directions. This will ensure you get the best results from the product.
