To apply the self-tanner evenly and with a natural appearance and what is not noticeable in excess or is artificial or stain, certain pauses must be followed.
It is very important to apply the self-tanner with previously exfoliated skin. The exfoliant will depend on the skin of each one. It can have more or less particles, scratch more or less (sensitive people should use a scrub without scratching particles as they could irritate the skin), it is important that you respect the natural Ph of the skin. It will be necessary to insist on exfoliating the elbows, knees, heels... if these areas do not exfoliate insistently, it will leave the artificial effect, spots appear, areas such as elbows, knees, heels and other areas, are darker and the effect is unsightly.
Afterwards the skin should be hydrated. It is very important so that the self-tanner remains uniform and also does not dry out the skin. Hydration should be done throughout the body and after allowing it to dry and it has penetrated well, the self-tanner can be applied.
When the self-tanner is applied, it should be done in areas, without haste, in a uniform way. To apply it well, without leaving areas without applying, it must be applied from the feet and going up.
As a trick, so that the hands are not orange or yellow and we have a problem with the nails and hands, it can be applied with latex gloves. Then we will have to bear in mind that the hands will also have to be dyed (carefully) so that the cut is not so unsightly.
Finally, maintenance, until the two hours in which you have applied the self-tanner you must bear in mind that you cannot shower, sweat, stain yourself... so that you do not have stains. And the 10 minutes after applying it will be when you can get dressed, so as not to stain or detach the product. It is very important to hydrate on a daily and continuous basis, because these products tend to dry out the skin a lot.
