Applying Sun Laboratories Self Tanner Properly To Enjoy A Wonderful Result

By Haywood Hunter


If you want to do something about your pale complexion without endangering your health, get a bottle of Sun Laboratories Self Tanner. This product can promote darkening of the skin without letting dangerous UV light touch it. Regardless of the Sun Laboratories Self Tanner type you like to purchase, proper usage is the secret to coming up with a terrific fake suntan.



You can buy Sun Laboratories Self Tanner in lotion, foam, spray and roll on type. Although all of them are mild enough for use all over, the manufacturer also offers a solution exclusive for the face. It's important that you follow the instructions printed on the label to see what the product is capable of. If not, your attempt at indoor tanning may end up tragic.

Exfoliating is a task that has to be done before using Sun Laboratories Self Tanner. The active ingredient in the product called dihydroxyacetone or DHA reacts with dead skin cells, causing the darkening of the topmost epidermal part. If DHA comes into contact with an uneven layer of dead skin cells, the resulting tan is likely to be blotchy. The maker of Sun Laboratories Self Tanner offers an exfoliating body gel that's perfect for such pre-tanning chore.

Another thing that needs to be done prior to the application of any Sun Laboratories Self Tanner is shaving. By getting rid of excess hair, it's easier to come up with a smooth tan. If you have very sensitive skin, shave at least a day before you use Sun Laboratories Self Tanner. Otherwise, perform the chore an hour before you start applying your at-home tanning product.

If what you are going to use is Sun Laboratories Self Tanner in lotion or foam type, put on gloves to spare your palms from ending up DHA-stained. Wear a pair of plastic gloves in case you have latex allergy. If no gloves are around, worry not. Simply wash your hands thoroughly whenever you go from one body part to the other.

Sun Laboratories Self Tanner lotion or foam is applied in the same manner as your everyday hand and body moisturizer. Spread the product on the skin using long, broad strokes. If you are using the spray type, place it about 6 inches away from the skin and press the nozzle. No matter which one you are using, added brown tint ensures that you don't miss a spot.

Before you put on your clothes, allow the solution to completely dry. Give DHA being used by Sun Laboratories Self Tanner plenty of time to carry out its work by steering away from swimming, showering or perspiring for 6 to 8 hours after the application. The initial effect becomes visible in 3 hours. Expect it to deepen after 24 to 72 hours had passed.

The suntan-like effect of Sun Laboratories Self Tanner may be enjoyed for about a week. Just like the real thing, the golden brown color begins to fade as the layer of dead skin cells DHA has darkened is replaced with a new one. Remember to regularly apply moisturizing lotion to slow down the rate of your skin's sloughing off and make the fake tan last longer.
