If there is anything that is trendy and desirable, it is a glowing skin that has a beautiful bronze tan. Pale skin is considered unattractive. Getting a tan is as easy as going out to the sun, but this is known to take long before results can be seen. Luckily, there has come spray tanning, where you can get a glowing skin without the hassle. A few basic rules will ensure you get a good spray sun tan.
When planning to get your spray sun tan, lay off the makeup. Makeup will be a shield that will only serve to prevent absorption of the tanning solution. If you must wear makeup, put on some lip balm or lipstick and mascara. Try as much as possible not to wear deodorant on the day of your appointment. Deodorant may react with some of the these products and in the end cause colored armpits.
Do not shower up to twelve hours after getting your spray sun tan. The formula usually takes about ten hours to get fully absorbed into your skin. Showering before this time will wash out some of the tanning solution and you will end up with a lighter shade than you desire. Also, do not moisturize your skin after getting your sun tan, as this might prevent the tan from being absorbed by your skin.
By sweating, and having dripping water on your body, some of the spray sun tan will wash off and leave undesirable streaks. Try and avoid any activities that will cause you to sweat. Also, avoid swimming and water activities. Water and sweat will cause the spray sun tan to streak leaving undesirable streaks.
After showering, pat dry, do not rub. This way your spray sun tan stays intact. Also, do not exfoliate your skin or shave it. Exfoliating will remove the top layer of skin that contains the tan and the skin will end up pale.
After getting sprayed, do not apply bronzing product. The tanning solution usually contains this product hence using both together will make you look unnatural. Avoid wool, nylon and silk immediately after your spray sun tan as they stain quite easily. Wear loose clothing that will not wipe off the tanning solution before it is fully absorbed.
Consult your beauty therapist and inform them of the products that you use. Certain products such as bar soaps are known to remove the tan. The therapist will tell you which products you can use on your skin to keep your spray sun tan safe.
Prior to the tanning, exfoliate and get rid of unwanted hair. When you want a spray sun tan for a big event, do a try out early. This will help you choose a suitable shade and see some of the results, such as whether your skin is reacting to the tanning solution.
Ensure that you keep your spray sun tan well moisturized. Follow the same sun protection routine as you did before getting the tan. Failure to do so will lead to you getting major sunburn. You might also get itchy dry skin as a result of the tanned skin drying out.
