If you want a spectacular tan to look great, then you have many options. Obviously you can lie in the sun or you can go to a tanning salon. A simple alternative is to look for self-tanners that you can make at home from over-the-counter products. This article is about the ins and outs of self-tanning, and we’ve got some great tips for you.
When it comes to self-tanning, you need to consider your own skin type. People have very different skin types, and the self-tanning products you use will look different depending on this important factor. You may need to try a few different products before you find the one that works best for your skin type. Don’t count on your friends as your skin type is different and you may not advise getting the same result as them.
Here’s a good tip for you: whenever you use a new (never tried before) sunless tanning product; choose an innocent part of your body and just put on a little to check the results. In some cases, you may have a bad reaction to a certain chemical. You will never know 100% how any product will tan your skin type until you try it. This is exactly why you should really do a little test first before applying it all over your body. Obviously, a less conspicuous part of yourself is the best place to try. If you don’t have any prior sensitivity to makeup, then you’ll probably be fine. But if you do the test, you will know for sure not only about the possible irritation, but also to see how the tan looks on you.
Have you read anything about vitamins that can help you tan? Well, that may or may not be a good thing, but still there is nothing to confirm or support that notion. However, there is tyrosine that works to increase melanin, and that could help the skin to tan more easily. There is nothing anywhere to suggest that this is a viable approach to tanning.
We have no good reason to suggest you take anything by mouth for tanning purposes, period. Therefore, we only suggest that you use a reputable, quality self-tanning product for a great, natural-looking tan.
The appeal of self-tanning is understandable, as it is the easiest way to get a tan with the fewest health risks. You may want to experiment with several of these products to find out which one you like best. It’s just that people are unique, and that’s true for your skin type.
The self-tanning guidelines we’ve been looking at can help you use these products the right way.
