Simple Steps For The Perfect Spray Tan Application

By Haywood Hunter


Many people spend a lot to time and money into achieving a flawless tan that they can flaunt around mostly in the summer months when shorts and small tops are popular. A simple, no hassle way that a glowing tan can be achieved rather than spending a bunch on time in the blazing sun is getting a spray tan. These are some simple spray tan application steps that you can do to get the tan you want.



Before applying any sunless tanning products, you will need to shower and thoroughly exfoliate the skin to eliminate any dead skin cells, paying extra attention to the elbow and knee areas. You can simply use a washcloth to get rid of any rough patches on the skin or you can use a cleansing puff. Make sure that you dry your skin completely after showering and before beginning with the sunless tanning application.

Take care to read the directions on the spray tan solution before attempting the full body application. For safety purposes you should test a small portion of skin to make sure there will be no allergic reactions to the product. When there are no allergic reactions to the tanner, it is safe to apply the product to the rest of the body.



You will want to protect your hands from the tanning solution by wearing gloves while applying the product to your body. If you do not protect your hands they will absorb more of the solution and the end result will be an orange hue witch is not what you want. Always wash your hands thoroughly after applying the solution to your body, even if you did wear gloves.

By using steady, continuous strokes will ensure you that you get a tan that is even and the most attractive. Pay attention to the knee, ankle, and elbow areas which most likely tend to the driest. Those areas of skin are the hardest for the spray tan solution to absorb into the skin making look uneven. You should exfoliate these sections of skin later when the spray tanner has completely dried.

To keep your clothing from getting stained it is recommended to let the tanner fully dry before getting dressed. All types of tanner are not the same in the length of time it takes to dry but the most common times are between 10 minutes to 15 minutes. Another suggestion is to avoid bathing for an entire day after application for better results.

A simple way to keep the tan longer is to apply moisturizer to hydrate and keep the skin soft to lock in the color, but only do this when the mixture had a chance to completely dry. The brands to use for the best possible results is the moisturizer products made to work with self tanners which have the right amount ingredients for tanners.

When you decide to use a spray tan instead of spending countless hours in the sun, you will notice that you will get a more even tan and will use up less of your valuable time to achieve the look that you want. Now you can wear your shorts and tank tops with confidence because you know you have that healthy bronze glow you always wanted.
