Getting A Better Tan With Your Indoor Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


If you want a lovely tanned body, you do not have to spend a lot of time baking in the hot sun. In fact, you do not have to go out of doors at all. Indoor tanning lotion offers a healthier alternative than exposing yourself to a lot of ultraviolet rays. Here are a few tips and ideas for getting the most from your indoor tanning lotion products.

Preparation is important, as you should shower before applying tanning lotion to your skin. Shave areas that you plan to tan to get the smoothest results. It is also a good idea to use a mild skin exfoliating product. However, do all of these things several hours beforehand, to avoid any irritation to the skin.

Most people will want to have an even tan all over. Do not forget about washing the hands thoroughly after applying tanning lotion. Your hands are likely to be exposed to more lotion than the rest of your body, and they can turn out much darker than you may like.

Give your tanning lotion plenty of time to soak into the skin. It may be a good idea to avoid dressing or going to bed too soon after applying your tanning lotion. Also, if you plan to go swimming, you should wait at least several hours.

Your indoor tanning lotion products are not made for the tanning salon. When you are planning on going out in the sun afterward, choose products that offer sunscreen or sunblock protection. To be certain, place your tanning lotion on a small area of the body, to see how it performs.

In summary, if you are interested in a lovely tan without the risk of ultraviolet light exposure, indoor tanning lotion is a good idea. Remember to prep your body first, and read the instructions on the product. Also, test a small area first, to be sure it is what you want from your indoor tanning lotion.
