Perhaps you are already using sunless tanning lotion, you may even thing that it could be just a little better. Maybe you are experimenting and want to be sure it is right for you before you start using it regularly. Well whichever category you fall into there are several tips that can make the entire process more professional looking, and overall superior in quality. Here are the five biggest tips you should follow when preparing to use your sunless tanning lotion.

1. Find out before you start if you need help. There are several areas on your body that you can’t see well, or reach. You do not want to apply lotion to your back and then find out the whole area is off colored due to being spread improperly. Having plenty of mirrors will help if you want to handle it completely on your own. You may also consider paint rollers to reach the tough spots, aside from that you could get a friend and she can apply the lotion to your back, and you do hers.
2. Moisturize your legs properly before using any product made for sensitive skin. Hopefully you already have made a habit of doing this, but if not now is a good time to start, also avoid shaving or waxing just before applying the lotion, while the product is safe your skin can become irritated from applying too many different treatments.
3. Exfoliating is another important step in the preparation process, honestly, this could be one of the most important steps in the entire list. Clean up before applying the lotion, use a soft towel and a good exfoliator. You want to put the lotion onto the freshest possible skin, so removing loose dead skin cells will make the results extraordinarily superior.
4. Be careful about your hands, since they will be exposed to the lotion much longer than any other part of your body. There is a large chance that even though lotions nowadays do not leave an orange color, it is possible for it to happen on your hands if you are not careful. Two good ways to prevent this would be to wear gloves, or wash your hands thoroughly frequently while applying the lotion.
5. Dress for success! You don’t want your tan to be moving around on you, so wear the same outfit or bathing suit each time you apply the lotion. Aside from that you could wear nothing at all and have a tan that covers your whole body. Sunless lotion is pretty simple. Although assistance from a good friend can help the process go much more smoothly, if you take your time and take the time to do a good tan, you will look like it was done professionally at a fraction of the cost.
