Great Tan With Spray Tanning Lotions

By Haywood Hunter


Sunbathing is funny, hot and exhausting, but it is also very dangerous. It can cause different skin irritations and cancer. Even so, most people still practice this risky game, to get a nice, bronze skin. There are so many ways of achieving the same results without risking your health. You don't even have to use tanning beds any more. Some great sunless tan products are available today, including foams and spray tanning lotions.

Creams, foams, gels and spray tanning lotions designed for this purpose can be simply used in your home. If you buy a set, you will also get a moisturizer and an exfoliating gel. Spray tanning lotions are especially convenient if you buy them in those handy sets. They are easy to use, and available in several different shades.

People still prefer to be treated by a real professional. Sunless tan providing salons offer two different methods of application. Spray tanning lotions can be applied in special tanning booths, automatically. The other method includes the presence of a technician. He uses airbrush for applying spray tanning lotions on your entire body.

Booths are very good solutions for shy people. In any case, this way you can have all-over tan simply and easily, without streaks and without white areas. Professionally applied spray tanning lotions provide even more amazing results. Airbrush technology uses especially fine mist for applying the product, and final results really are impeccable. It takes a little bit longer, but you won't be sorry.

The skin needs to be prepared. You have to be shaved, of course, and you need to do that at least a day before the actual treatment. If you apply spray tanning lotions immediately after shaving, you might end up with small spots all over your legs, because your skin needs some time to heal. It doesn't look very appealing.

Every good sunless tan product is based on DHA, or dihydroxyacetone. This active compound is sugar-based, and it reacts with amino acids in the most outer skin layer. The product of this reaction is your desired bronze skin, and the intensity depends mostly on DHA concentration and added color enhancers. DHA alone needs time to develop deep shades, and color enhancers are added to speed up the process.

Only the most outer skin layer gets affected with DHA. That's why you need to exfoliate your skin before applying spray tanning lotions, or any other fake tan product. This process will make your skin smooth, exfoliating all dead skin cells from it. This way your color will look better and last longer. Make sure to pay good attention to heels and other areas where the skin is especially dry, because these areas might become darker.

Although using good moisturizers is always important, it is especially important to use them before and after applying a fake tan. Spray tanning lotions mostly contain moisturizers, but you should apply a good one daily anyway, to make your skin soft and appealing, and to make your color last longer. Another thing you shouldn't forget about is that you shouldn't use any deodorant or perfume, because they could cause unwanted reactions.
