Knowing how to apply your tan lotion the right way is the best way to achieve a lovely, even and streak-free tan. There may be some not so perfect attempts involved, and you'll certainly get more improved at it the more you use your sunless tanning cream, but here's some pointers on how you can get the best looking result from your indoor tanning lotion from the outset.
The first pointer in putting on indoor tanning cream is to make absolutely sure the skin is washed and exfoliated. This means having a shower or bath and exfoliating and drying off the skin immediately before applying the indoor tanning cream. Exfoliating prepares the outer layer of your epidermis and creates a smooth and firm base for the tanning cream to adhere to. Applying the tanning product after a shower means the epidermis is totally clean and purged from any that could debilitate the tanning lotion, and the skin will retain a little bit of moisture which can be a godsend in helping the product go on nicely and evenly. While bathing inspect the skin for any signs of rash or irritation, as fake tanning product can be dangerous to the skin if applied to any part of the skin that is irritated.
It's most commonly regarded the area of skin to begin actually putting on the tanning cream is on the legs. Take a small drop of your tanning cream and smooth it from top of the thigh to the knee on your legs in long uninterrupted strokes. The next step is to massage the product deeper into the skin, moving down each line making gentle, small oval motions. Try to make sure the indoor tanning cream goes on evenly with no hard lines or missing patches.
Next work on getting to the point where your knees,shins and feet are well covered, then begin the steps as well on the arms and torso. It will be more difficult to keep watch on if the product is getting put on properly as you begin to get closer to your head, so following this guide before a large mirror can be of great help. When you've done all areas except your back, an idea would be to rope in a friend or your spouse to help you, but barring that making use of a brush and the mirror will get the process with some clever twisting about.
Applying tanning product to the face is best achieved by gently putting little blotches on the face in even spacing, then softly massaging in. Use a lighter touch and not as large amount on the face, and pay attention to around the nose and under the eyes, being aware of avoiding getting any in the eyes.
