Tips for an even tan with self-tanner

Brown colored legs? Yes, please. It is very easy with self tanner. You are tanned before you have seen the sun well and truly.

Gone are the days when a self-tanner turns you into a carrot. Self-tanners give you a natural tan. However, applying it is a painstaking job.

1. Take your time
If you want to apply self-tanner 'just as quickly', there is a greater chance that the end result will not be completely even. So make sure you have some time to apply it neatly and let it dry well.

2. Good preparation is half the battle
Make sure you scrub your body the day before. Lubricate dry areas such as your elbows, knees and heels with body lotion first. Self-tanner stains are easier on dry skin.

3. Spot the error quickly
Have you gone over the same place twice? The sooner you discover it, the easier it is to correct. Use scrub or a washcloth to limit the damage. In an emergency, you can use a little bit of alcohol to rub the stains.

4. Wash your hands after applying
Brown mottled palms of the self-tanner are no fun! Wash your hands gows. It is best if you also wash your hands between self-tanning.
