Easy Steps For Spray Tan Application

By Haywood Hunter


Many people would like to have a glowing, beautiful tan so they can feel their best, and this usually happens during the summer month when small tops and shorts are all the rage. A simple solution to this would be to get a tan without having to stay out in the blinding sun for hours at a time, and that is a spray tan. These are some simple steps for the perfect spray tan application and does not take up a ton of your valuable time.



The best way to ensure an even tan without streaks is to bathe and exfoliate the skin to make sure that there are no dead skin cells left behind. Making extra care to remove the dry skin around the areas where there tends to be more dry, rough skin such as the knee, ankle, and elbow areas. Use a shower puff or a washcloth to cleanse the skin and completely dry off your whole body before applying the spray tan solution.

You will need to read the instructions thoroughly before application of any tanning product. To be safe it is highly recommended that you test the product on a small section of your skin to eliminate any possibilities of allergic reactions. When you are sure there are no allergic reactions to the product, you can proceed with the full application.



Protecting your hands from discoloration is a good idea so you will need to use gloves for the application of spray tan solution. The result of not using gloves is your hands become an unattractive orange color that is not ideal. The best way to prevent this is to always wash and rinse your hands thoroughly after application, even if you did wear gloves, this step is important.

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.

You will need to let the spray tan solution dry completely before getting dressed. Different brands will recommend different lengths of time for drying, but usually about 10 to 15 minutes is adequate. Most products will recommend that you do not shower or bathe for a full 24 hours following the application for the best results.

A way to make you beautiful tan last a little longer is to spread on a moisturizer to keep the skin soft and supple. The best type to use is one that works specifically with self tanners. It is best to use the moisturizer every day for at least 7 days so your tan will not fade away sooner.

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.
