Discover Simple Facts About The Darkest Self Tanner Products


by Haywood Hunter


Are the darkest self tanner products really what we need to help us display a good healthy looking tan? Do the many products on the market fall short of our expectations? Is that the real reason why many people still choose to ignore all the many health warnings about skin cancer and the dangers of sunbathing?

The main difficulty with self tan products is that we all have different skin tones and types. There is no guarantee that we will all follow exactly the same procedure when applying the product. Missing out or skimping on some of the process can affect the results. So looking at what we ourselves need to do when using the products can help us to achieve the desired results.

Before buying any product, including self tanners it is important to read the instructions carefully. Make sure that the user is not allergic to any of the product ingredients listed on the label. Check the manufacturer's recommendation for skin types and coloring. Using one that is not recommended for your skin type can provide poor results. Do not expect miracles, be patient and building up gradually is best.

Test the product on a hidden patch of skin a good number of hours before using on the rest of the body. This allows time for any reaction to the product to show up. It gives the product time to develop and should provide a good indication of what the result will be when applied to the rest of the body.

A successful test also allows the user to see how difficult or easy it is to use the product. They can tone down the end color if it is very dark, is streaky or looks too orange by adding some body lotion. Adding lotion should also make the tanning solution easier to apply.

Uneven and streaky results often occur because the tanner is not applied to dry, clean and exfoliated skin. When exfoliating, it is important to pay particular attention to joint areas and feet, to achieve a much smoother tan. Have a wedge of lemon or some cotton wool and toner to hand when applying tanning products. Dabbing areas that are streaky helps to reduce the excess colour.

Always allow sufficient time for the tan product to dry properly. Dressing too quickly can result in clothing being stained and can cause streaky patches on the tan. If the product contains a bronzer in the ingredients list, it can be rubbed off or washed off very easily. Never have a shower or bath within a few hours of applying a tanning product. Do not apply the product shortly before going to bed or bedclothes could become badly stained.

Many tanning products are recommended specifically for use on the body or the face, rarely for both. Using one of the darkest tanning products on the face can produce a very heavy tanned appearance, but it will likely be too dark and not look natural.
