Just a few tips to remind your clients when using sunless tanning lotions:
Applying self tanning lotions take practice, but if you follow these suggestions and add a little patience, applying the self tanning lotion will be easier and sunless tans will be streak-free.
1. Exfoliate for a few days before application.
This is really the most important prep step for sunless tanning. Skin needs to be shed of its dead scaly layer of skin so the tanner isn’t trying to work its way through it. In the shower, a gentle body scrub such as Pravada’s Organic Shea Butter Scrub can help exfoliate dry and scaly areas including the knees and elbows.
2. Moisturize every day the week before application.
If not a week, at least a few days prior, body lotion should be applied liberally immediately after shower or bath. In order to get an even application, application should start at the same place. Many times certain areas of the body, knees and ankles for example, are much drier than other areas. These areas soak up the self tanner which leads to blotchy coloring. Keeping skin plumped up with moisture will help.
3. Do not apply the self tanner in your steamy bathroom.
The heat and moisture in the bathroom can cause skin to start to sweat and the self tanner can melt and drip which will cause streaks. Also, wait until body has cooled down after shower. Hot skin will have the same effect.
4. Take your time with application.
Self tanning lotions take a bit of time to dry. Start with one area of the body and work around without rushing. By moving slow and paying attention only to the area being working on, clients will get better results.
5. Dilute by half on the areas prone to dark spots.
Knees, ankles and elbows are usually first to show if not applied correctly. Mix half self tanner and half moisturizer for a more natural look on these areas.
6. Wash your hands multiple times during application
Latex gloves are another option. Use a damp triangle makeup sponge to apply to the backs of hands and top of feet. This will keep the self tanner off palms and right where it should go.
7. Wait 15 minutes to get dressed.
Avoid staining clothes and sheets by allowing lotion to dry.
