how to get the perfect sunless tan

Hey everyone,

Today’s post is a how to get the perfect sunless tan. I use sunless tanner rather than baking my skin. I’ve never been an insane crazed sun tanner but I do love the look of being very blonde and very tan. So to replace the gross adverse effects of regular tanning, I’ve decided to give you guys my tips for the perfect sunless tan.

Step one: Prep.

When you chose to sunless tan, you do not just go and slap any old tanner on. You should always exfoliate a couple of days before and give your skin a moisture boost. I don’t have a recommendation for a specific moisturizer. Then Exfoliate again. If you do want to do hair removal, make sure you do so before tanning. I personally get waxed, So I make sure I go to my amazing esthetician before I plan to self-tan.

Suppose you’re going to get a perfect manicure and pedicure. Go get a pedicure before you self-tan.  If you get a pedicure, the scrub from the pedicure will remove your tan. I’ve done it before, don’t make my mistake! Do your manicure after you self-tan.

Step two: Tanning

For self-tanning, you will want to make sure you blend it into your skin. Be careful when applying self-tanner around your armpits, ankles, and other areas similar to that.  The armpit, knee, ankles, elbows, and feet are sometimes dry areas and can end up looking patchy. Don’t worry it can happen to anyone. Just use a less is more attitude when applying. There are two ways to apply it without getting it uneven on your hands. The first is a dense brush like one sold by bare minerals or a tanning mitt like that is sold by St. Tropez. I always wash the palms of my hands after applying to make sure I don’t end up with orange palms.
