The Sunless California Tan
If you are looking for the perfect tan, you might consider going to a sunning beach or even a tanning saloon where you could acquire a great tan without needing the sun. But could you actually get a sunless tan without either one of these? With the new range of California Tan products, you can get a perfect sunless tan without having to step out of your home.
California Tan now offers an entire range of products starting from preparing your skin for acquiring a great tan right up to enhancing and extending the tan, by using self-tanning solutions. To get a perfect sunless tan, you have to prepare your skin so that the tanning lotion works effectively. This means taking care of the skin before you apply the tanning lotion and after applying the lotion.
Let us see how exactly one can get a nice, healthy tan using the California Tan products.
To begin with, you need to make sure that your skin is ready for the self-tanning lotion or spray. The California Tan exfoliator contains many ingredients that have a gently exfoliating action on the skin – they remove dry and dead skin and soften it up. In addition, they ensure that the tanning lotion or spray spreads evenly without leaving any streaks or spots. Therefore, if you intend to go in for a self-tanning solution, it is essential that you apply the California Tan exfoliator a few hours before the application of any lotion or spray. When you use the exfoliator, take your time to make sure that you have applied it well on all areas of the body where you are seeking a tan. Areas such as elbows, knees, hands and feet are particularly rough and contain a lot of dead and dry skin. Make sure you apply plenty of exfoliator to smooth the skin even in these rough areas.
After applying the exfoliator and waiting for a few hours, you are now ready to apply the sunless tanning lotion or spray. However, there are still a few things you need to keep in mind. If you have just finished waxing, wait for at least twenty-four hours so that the pores can close, before you apply the sunless tanning lotion. Similarly, if you have used any kind of moisturizing lotion wait for about two to three house before applying the lotion. Make-up will prevent the tanning lotion from working effectively and jewelry may get stained. Avoid both makeup and wearing jewelry when you are going to apply the tanning lotion.
The California Tan self-tanning lotions contain specially formulated ingredients that will allow the skin to develop an evenly spread, natural looking tan within a few hours – typically from two to four hours. Once you have acquired a base tan, you can use the California tan products to just touch up or deepen your tan. You can also use their other products to ensure that your skin retains its tan for a much longer time than naturally acquired tans.
