Methods That Can Be Employed For Authentic Tanning

By Haywood Hunter


A lot of people love the idea of getting a perfect tan, but many believe that it is not possible to do so naturally. In fact, getting a good natural tan is well within the reach of almost everyone. The tanning tips outlined below will show you how to do it.



First, exfoliate your skin. Gently clean your skin as thoroughly as you can and remove any dead skin that has encrusted on it. This will make for a much more effective tan.

Second, use sunscreen. It seems somewhat counter-intuitive to use a sunscreen in order to acquire a suntan. Nevertheless, the sunscreen will ensure that a tan is what you develop, and will inhibit the likelihood of sunburn developing.

Third, keep yourself hydrated. Heat from the sun can dry out the skin, which makes for a less effective tan. Moisturizing your skin prior to tanning will help you keep your skin hydrated externally. To keep it hydrated internally, make sure to drink plenty of water. Moist skin tans more effectively than dry skin does, so it is important to keep this tip in mind.

One notion you should dispel right away is the idea that having sunburn on the skin means you are developing a good tan. This notion is widely held, and has no factual basis whatsoever. Being sunburnt means that ultra violet rays from the sun have burnt your skin, and this can be prevented by applying sunscreen.

The methods to be used for natural tanning stated above will help you to get a decent tan. And a natural one too, which is far better than any tan out of a bottle that you can get. People know the difference between a natural tan and a synthetic one, even if they will not say as much.
