Summer means the beach, the waves, and the tan lines that tell different stories of joy and good memories.
However, tanning requires patience and dedication.
Here are some helpful tips to get an even & glowy tan. 

Exfoliate But Don't Overdo It

Grab your favorite exfoliator and give your skin a gentle scrub, paying extra attention to those pesky tan lines. 
 
This will help lighten any darker patches. 
 
For the best results, make sure to exfoliate 24 hours before your tanning session to ensure an even glow

 

Hydrate Your Skin by Moisturizing

Keeping your skin hydrated is essential for achieving an even tan. Dry skin can reflect UV rays, resulting in uneven color. Therefore, after you exfoliate, be sure to apply a good moisturizer. 
 
If you have particularly dry areas, like your elbows, make sure to apply body lotion to those spots 24 hours before using self-tanner.

Apply SPF & Tanning Oil

Always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least 30 SPF and reapply it every two to three hours. Avoid using tanning oil without sun protection.

 

Change Positions 

To prevent awkward tan lines, rotate your body while tanning. This will help you avoid burning specific areas of your skin.
