NEED A LITTLE MORE COLOR?

Not only are tanning booths expensive, but they expose your body to the possibility of developing deadly skin cancers. With cancer rates on the rise, we should be saving our sun exposure for the time we actually spend outdoors during the summer. If you want to look tanned this summer, you might consider applying a light, slow-working self tanner.

It is risky to purchase a self-tanner which is very powerful, because you don’t know how it is going to show up on your body. Many people end up with unsightly tan streaks when they use very powerful tanners. Therefore, it is wise to get a slow-working tanner which is simply applied as a daily lotion. This way, you will start developing a tan over the course of a week, and you won’t develop unsightly color streaks along with it. Self-tanners also often contain an SPF formula to them, so you can tan while simultaneously protecting your skin from the harmful rays of the sun. With a tanning alternative such as this, it’s a wonder that people still go tanning at all!

Additionally, if you want to have a tan-looking face, but don’t want to apply tanning lotion to your facial area, there are other options available! Mineral makeup has some great options and color combinations which will warm up the skin tones of your face with just a couple of brush strokes. Keep in mind that this tan will wash off as soon as water hits your face. Therefore, you will not want your body and neck to get too colored from self tanner unless you are applying lotion to your face as well.
