Achieve A Golden Tan By Using Sunless Tanning Lotion All Year Round

By Haywood Hunter


Whether you're trying to avoid skin cancer from over-exposure to the sun, or you don't have the time to lay out by the pool, or you're in the wrong season or climate, you can still achieve a golden, natural looking tan by using a sunless tanning lotion. You'll be amazed at the number of products out there to choose from.

Some of them are fragranced and some of them are not. You can find certain brands that can be sprayed on or rubbed on like any regular lotion. Sometimes they include special conditioners for your skin, like aloe vera, to soothe the sting that comes from the sun, just in case you're also getting tanned by the sun. Many also have level of sun block, for added protection.

Often you can notice a difference after one application. Your skin will already appear darker within a few hours. The more, and more often, you apply the product, the deeper the resulting skin tone. If you're trying a new product for the first time, or if you have especially sensitive skin, you might want to use a small amount on a discreet test area of your body. It's best to play it safe and make sure you're not allergic.

To avoid the striped zebra look, be sure to rub the lotion on as evenly as possible. You can use a cloth or a small sponge to apply it. Or if you use your hands, beware that the palms of your hands will absorb the color, too. You may want to wear gloves to avoid that, especially if you're going for the most natural looking tan. The palms of our hands don't typically tan from the sun. Nor do our underarms, so try to avoid those areas.

There are special products available specifically for the face. Because the face has more exposure to the sun normally, it may darken quicker than other parts of the body that are usually more concealed. Also, special moisturizers are in facial products which can help smooth out the lines and wrinkles.

The tanning ingredient is basically a dye, so be careful not to get it on your bathing suit when you apply it. It may not wash out so easily. Some suggest wearing the same bathing suit each time you use it, for consistent tan lines. Also, because the dye has the greatest effect on the dead skin cells, be sure to scrub your skin well before applying to sluff off the particularly dry skin areas. Otherwise, those areas will be darker than other parts of the body.

The chemistry involved in making the sunless tanning products available today has come a long way from what it was when the first products were introduced many years ago. Back then, it wasn't uncommon to spot the oddly auburn-looking pioneers who dared to try out the new products. They were painfully unnatural looking. But that's no longer the reality. You can achieve exceptional results with many of the products available today.

The prices of sunless tanning lotion can vary widely, but paying more doesn't necessarily guarantee a better product. It could pay off to comparison shop.
