My Tan Commandments
- Exfoliate before getting spray tans or applying self tanners.
- Moisturize before and after no matter what form of tanning you use.
- Shave before tanning
- Dont shower immediately after using a tanning bed
- Apply self tanners at bedtime so by morning your bronzed and fabulous!
- Use a light body wash in the shower if using self tanners
- Remove all makeup before getting in a tanning bed
- Cover face in tanning beds if you get blotchy skin or hyper pigmentation
- If you're waxing, do it the day before.
- Use latex or vinyl gloves when applying self tanners to avoid streaking
- Always make sure your tan goes to the hairline because that can be a dead giveaway
- After applying self tanner, take gloves off and apply moisturizer to nails, knuckles and wrists. Place a small amount of tanner on the back of wrists and begin to rub in using the back of your hands. Then apply to wrists as if you were apply perfume.
- Make sure to let your self tanner dry!
- Use sunscreen outdoors
What are your tanning commandments?
Great advice! My recommendation would be ALWAYS use professional products when using indoor tanning equipment. I use and Ed Hardy bronzer and loooove it.

ReplyDeleteThis is so helpful! I bought the fake bake self tanner and I used it once and I hated how the color showed up on my wrist and my knuckles. But I am going to try and apply moisturizer first. Thanks! (:
