This content on using a skin self tanner is a guide to having a fabulous golden tan instead of subjecting yourself to dangerous skin damage.
With the increasing worry over skin cancer, which kills thousands of people annually, people have shifted focus to cosmetic products that create the same visual effect with no risks at all.
The changing of fashion caused by Coco Chanel towards having golden tanned skin has made self tanners popular. Now it is possible to have a honey colored tan without the risks associated with sun-baking.
It is vital for teens to become aware of the fact that sunbathing is destructive to the skin and they don't have to copy the same mistakes as the middle-aged group.
An eighteen year old can now achieve a lovely tan using a self tanning product rather than subjecting their skin to the damage from the sun. The darkest tan possible is very much within reach using a quality cosmetic product that will not irritate or damage the skin in any way whatsoever.
You probably have heard of the other side of skin tanners, especially if products are used incorrectly, such as complaints of streaky uneven tan and orange palms.
Here are some methods for applying of a self tanner that should give you better results -
* Start moisturizing and exfoliating the skin with a loofah daily, a week prior to using a self tanner for best results.
* Use the self tanner lightly on the elbows, knuckles and knees as the skin is thicker and will end up darker.
* It is a good idea before applying self tanner to protect your hairline and eyebrows from darkening by smoothing petroleum jelly on them
* When applying the self tanner wear gloves or wash your hands immediately after or you will end up with colored hands.
Hints For After Using a Skin Tanner
* After treatment it is always a good idea to wait as long as possible before dressing or going to bed, to prevent the self tanner rubbing off and also discoloring your clothes.
* Try to keep out of water and don't do heavy exercising that causes sweating, for over 6 hours.
* Always follow the instructions and take extra precautions against accidents, such as staining your clothes.
Try the above tips and you'll see how smooth and almost perfect the skin color becomes.
