Tips to Get the Best Out of Your Self-Tan Foam
If ever you’re wondering how to get the best out of your self-tan foam and other tanning products, here are some tips that will help you get a flawless result before applying them on your skin. Of course, first and foremost, you should be using the ones that quickly dry in as little as 30 minutes (Hint! Shellcove Self-Tan Foams!) so you can be readily on-the-go whenever and wherever your presence is needed.
Tip #1: Exfoliate 24 hours prior. This is very important as removing dead skin will create a perfect base for your tan application, penetrating only fresh live skin cells that will leave an even, healthy glow to your skin. When you exfoliate, pay particular attention to your skin’s dry areas like ankles, elbows, and knees.
Tip #2: Remove body hair 24 hours prior. If you decide to remove your body hair, do so 24 hours prior to application. This will allow your pores to close so that self-tanners won’t sink into the loosened pores that will create dark spots and uneven finish. And when you’ve already applied your tan, avoid using hair removal creams and waxing as these will strip the tan where they’re used.
Tip #3. Do not apply deodorants or use perfume. When using self-tan foam and other self-tanners, avoid using deodorants or perfume as they create a sticky layer on the skin, preventing the formula from adhering. The best thing to do is not to use them before tanning and while it’s working its magic into your skin. In other words, wait for it to dry completely.
Tip #4: Choose which tan is best for you. Shellcove has an array of tanning products that delivers a flawless, clean Aussie bronzed look that will make you stand out from the rest. Check out our product page to find which of our tanners will perfectly suit your skin.
Tip #5: Moisturise. Make sure that your skin is hydrated well by applying a moisturiser everyday in the week leading up to your tanning. Focus on very dry areas 2 to 3 hours before the actual tanning. A well-moisturised skin prevents the absorption of excess tan.
