Self Tanning Gains Popularity Again
For several decades, tanning booths were very popular for people to enjoy a golden bronzed look all year long. However, due to increased warnings about UV damage with the resulting premature wrinkling and more importantly, the very real danger of skin cancer, people are seeking a safer alternative. Self tanning products are safe for your skin and have come a long way since the earlier products that left an odd orange tinge to your skin and often appeared blotchy or streaked easily.
Sunless tanning products come in a wide array of different forms. They come in lotions, sprays and mousse forms. It is recommended, prior to application of any sunless tanning solution, to shower using an exfoliating scrub. St. Tropez features a full line of moisturizers, tan removers, exfoliating scrubs, tanning lotions, sunless self tanning mousses, sunless self tanning sprays and more.
Fake Bake also has an extensive variety of sunless tanning products. Fake Bake self tanner features Legal Sunburn and Bronzy Babe for facial use. Similarly, their other products come in a Fake Bake Scrub, Fake Bake Skin Smoothly, Fake Bake Mousse, a self tanning lotion, a face tanner and more. Airbrush tanning is a new and upcoming method of sunless tanning. The airbrush method can be done at home or in a salon.
Airbrush sunless tanning ingredients are FDA approved and safe for use in either setting. The airbrush sunless tanning method takes 5 to 10 days to achieve a golden tanned look. The airbrush packages for home use for sunless tanning are a little under $ 400.00. Whatever sunless tanning method you choose, pick a reputable brand name and follow all instructions precisely. This will help you to avoid a blotchy orange look and achieve a smooth even golden glow to your skin.
Sunless tanning lotions are meant to be applied about 3 times in the first week and after that they can be applied about 2 times a week. You may decide to either increase or decrease the frequency of use depending on the depth of the tan color desired. The tan does not wash off, however, you may notice some of the brown color guide washing off. The tan will stay. The sunless tanning lotion by Faux Tan is meant to be applied at night and washed off in the morning to rinse away the brown color guide.
