Nowadays, more people are aware of the bad effects that come with over exposure to natural and artificial sunlight. Many individuals are afraid to lay out in the bright rays, but still want that healthy glow. Luckily, self tanning lotion is available.

Self tanning lotion provides lightweight coverage and work to change the overall appearance of the skin. After a few applications most individuals look as if they have been lounging on the beach all day. They are safe to use and the glow generally lasts for a week at a time.

Although application of the self tanning cream may seem difficult, the fact is that it's easily done. The important thing to remember is to carefully prepare the skin for the self tanning lotion. Done properly, the effects are quite stunning.

The first step is to successfully apply self tanning lotion is to take a shower and thoroughly exfoliate the body. This is best done the night before self tanning cream will be applied. Pat the skin dry and don't apply any lotions or other products.

One thing most people do, when applying the self tanning lotion, is use gloves. The cream easily stains the hands and tends to pool between the fingers leaving brown marks. Individuals who choose to apply the self tanning lotion without covering the hands, should wash them carefully afterwards.

The best way to eliminate creasing is to begin at the bottom of the body and work towards the top. Use thin layers of self tanning lotion and be quick to prevent uneven drying. Taking such steps will ensure a natural look.

Give each coat plenty of time to dry before moving on to the next layer. Thirty minutes is a good time frame. Don't put on any clothes or sit on expensive furnishings while the self tanning lotion is drying. The stains that are left behind will not come out of fabric.

No matter how careful an individual is there still may be streaks. No worries, this is easily remedied. Self tanning lotion is easily removed by using water, lemon juice and a washcloth. Simply fill a bowl with the liquid and add the citrus. Use circular motions to remove the self tanning lotion. Another option is to purchase a removing cream that will quickly strip away any remnants of the lotion.

Self tanning lotion provides individuals with a safe and easy method of achieving an all over glow. The lotions are quite affordable and last for a week at a time. There is no better way to look fresh during the summer months.
