Follow these golden rules for your most natural-looking tan ever-and see how easy it is to be a bronze goddess.
(Be sure to read instructions through to the end before you start.)
1. Exfoliate skin thoroughly while in shower.
- Concentrate on knees, elbows, heels and knuckles (both toes and fingers) which tend to be extra dry. If you plan on shaving, do so before applying sunless tanner, not after.
- Remember, clean, smooth skin will always give you a more even and longer-lasting sunless tan.
2. Dry yourself completely.
3. If desired, lightly apply your daily moisturizer.
4. Apply sunless tanner evenly-blend well using circular motions. Be careful not to miss any spots.
- If you're applying over your whole body, start on larger surface areas like your arms and legs. Then, lightly blend any product remaining on your hand onto areas like knees, elbows, heels and knuckles that tend to be dry and absorb more color.
- Similarly, go lightly around the upper lip and hairline. Avoid eye area.
5. Wash hands with soap immediately after use.
6. Allow body formulas to dry completely before dressing (15 minutes or so).
7. To maintain or deepen color, reapply 2-3 times a week or as needed.
