How to Apply Self-Tanner Without Leaving Traces?

Need a self-tanner to look good before summer? Whether it's a cream, a spray, or a self-tanning shower gel, here are the right steps to apply your self-tanner according to different parts of the body in a few precise steps.

To get a beautiful tan without sun exposure, you should first prepare your skin by exfoliating it the day before to remove dead cells. Then wash it with a neutral pH soap to avoid sensitizing the skin.
Apply a self-tanner to the area you want to tan. While there are multi-use products, it's better to take one for the body and another for the face. The skin on the face is thinner, so it's preferable to use a lighter texture. When in doubt, consult your sales consultant.


Apply the self-tanner on the face.

1. Before applying the self-tanner, you should have clean skin.

To do this, wash your face with a facial product suitable for your skin type. Apply and rinse thoroughly with two makeup remover pads. Repeat this step with a exfoliating lotion to get perfectly clean skin.

2. Apply the self-tanner using a foundation brush, stretching it to the ears, neck, and neckline.

3. Let it act for 1 hour. Follow the product instructions.

1. Use a pair of latex gloves or a special self-tanning glove to avoid stains on your hands.

2. Apply two successive layers of product on the legs, arms, and neckline with your hand.

The last layer is only intended to cover these areas of the body well.

3. Apply the self-tanner well on the ankles, joints, and wrists.

4. Leave for 15-20 minutes before dressing, 3 hours before swimming, and 24 hours for a noticeable before/after effect.

1. Lift the leg, for example, on the edge of the bathtub.

2. Take a little product and apply it in circular motions from bottom to top. From the ankles to the knees. Finish on the thighs, stretching the self-tanner as much as possible, especially on the inside. Finally, pass the top of the feet making light touches for a natural and demarcation-free finish.

1. Apply the product on the top of the hand and gradually move up, making enveloping movements, up to the shoulders, not forgetting the inner part of the arm.

2. Finish with a few touches under the armpits.

Body

Sun Protection and Different Textures

Applying sunscreen doesn't have to mean spreading a thick white layer all over your body. There are solutions with various textures that provide protection: cream, milk, spray, or gel. Which of these textures will entice you?

Different texture, but the same sun protection? Although the textures are different, the composition of these sunscreens remains the same. In fact, sun protection incorporates chemical and/or mineral filters to combat the absorption of UV-B and/or UV-A. You just need to choose a protection level suitable for your skin type.
So, with equal protection ratings, sunscreen and sun oil protect in the same way. Same recipe but a different comfort in application. With an added bonus to sun protection, certain products have additional properties and offer beautiful effects on the skin!
Harder to choose now, isn't it? Let's go, we'll help you:
• The sunscreen has a visible texture that allows you to control the amount of product applied and easily identify the areas of the body you might have missed.
• Sun milk is much more fluid than cream and usually provides more intense hydration. Application is easy and effective.
• Sun spray has a less oily texture than sunscreen or milk. With its sprayer, application is simple and light. However, be attentive to the amount diffused by this spray. Don't settle for just a mist!
• Sun gel offers a light texture and the advantage of being transparent. No white mask effect on your face! Thanks to its melted texture, it is easily applied to the skin.
• Sun oil can be applied easily and evenly thanks to its liquid texture. It's not sticky, perfect for physical activities. Additionally, it provides a beautiful satin effect to the skin, enhancing the tan. However, being transparent, we may forget certain areas or not spread enough.

Sun protection is not limited to traditional sunscreen. All these different products are formulated with a base of protection against UV-B (some also against UV-A). Some of these sunscreens have additional properties, such as hydration. Just read the labels if you want other effects besides protection.

In summary, choose according to your desires and needs!

Solar

Sun Protection Products: Choose a Safe and Effective Product!

Without the protection of clothing and effective sunscreen, prolonged exposure to the sun can be risky.

Which Sunscreen Product to Choose?

Always check the instructions on the product label!
Sun protection products (creams, gels, oils, or sprays) are cosmetic products intended to protect against the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation from the sun (UVA and UVB) when applied according to the instructions provided on the packaging.
However, it is wrong to believe that these products offer complete sun protection and allow you to stay exposed for longer. Caution should be exercised in terms of time and duration of exposure.

UVA, UVB, Make the Difference!

Tanning is a skin defense reaction that opposes a filter to the penetration of solar radiation. But this filter does not have unlimited capacity.
Solar radiation is composed, among other things, of ultraviolet B rays (UVB rays) and ultraviolet A rays (UVA rays). "Sunburn" is mainly caused by UVB rays. UVA rays are responsible for premature skin aging.
UVB rays are the main factor in skin cancer, while UVA rays play a significant role in its appearance.

Different Types of Sun Protection: Which to Choose?

There are two main categories of sun protection offered by cosmetics, depending on the nature of the filters and their mode of action; all must be expressly authorized by regulations:
•    Organic or chemical filters that act by absorbing UV radiation;
•    Mineral filters, namely titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, which act by reflecting UV rays: they do not penetrate the epidermis;
•    Organic or inorganic filters may be present in nanometric form. The [nano] mention must then be added to the name of the substance in the mandatory list of ingredients on the packaging.
•    These different filters, chemical or mineral, nano or not, can be combined by manufacturers to optimize efficiency.

Sunscreen Products, Protection Level: Read the Label!

Against UVB rays: the sun protection factor (SPF) or protection index (IP) is an essential criterion of choice. It corresponds to the delaying effect of the product in relation to sun aggression.
The product category followed by a number corresponding to the "sun protection factor (SPF)" is used to assess its effectiveness. The higher the SPF, the greater the photoprotective action.
The European Commission proposed grouping sun protection factors to keep only eight different numbers on labels. However, not all labeling has been changed, and old sun protection factors are sometimes retained.

Note: Claims like "full screen" or "total protection" should not be used. Although common, they are false because no sun product offers complete protection against ultraviolet radiation.
The European Commission defined, in its recommendation of September 22, 2006, the labeling rule for sunscreens. Taken from this recommendation, the table below specifies the correspondences between categories and sun protection factors:

Sun Protection Factors

Low protection    6-10
Medium protection    15-20-25
High protection    30-50
Very high protection    50+

Against UVA rays: check if your sunscreen has, in addition to the SPF, the UVA logo. This is the guarantee of ideal protection against ultraviolet rays.

Note: This logo is not mandatory but recommended and used by many professionals. Other mentions or indications regarding protection against UVA rays may, however, appear on the packaging.
Some "conventional" media insist on the existence of so-called controversial ingredients in sun products.
Remember that sunscreens can only contain UV filters authorized by cosmetic regulations (about thirty) because they are assessed as risk-free for human health. Exposing yourself to the sun without any protection, however, is dangerous.
Consumers are advised to read labels and inquire about the composition of the products they purchase, especially if they have special ethical or environmental requirements or a history of sensitivity to certain substances.

Usage Tips
The National Union of Dermatologists has published the 10 precautions to be taken against the harmful effects of the sun:
•    The best protection is clothing for everyone (especially children): hat, sunglasses, shirt.
•    Babies and young children should not be exposed to direct sunlight;
•    Sunburns are dangerous, especially in children;
•    Avoid direct exposure between 12:00 and 4:00 PM
•    Sun exposure should be gradual;
•    Sand, snow, water can reflect more than half of the sun's rays on your skin;
•    Your sunscreen, anti-UVB and anti-UVA, should be renewed every two hours and after each bath, regardless of its protection index;
•    Use sunscreen suitable for your skin type;
•    Sunscreen is not intended to increase the exposure time;
•    In altitude and in the tropics, it is necessary to increase the sun protection index of the product usually used.
