Spray Tan
Hey, guys! We are off to Vegas today! The weather in Kelowna has been a bit gloomy, so we are excited about some hot weather! Well, I shouldn't say we, I am excited. The little Canadian hubby is probably going to melt in the 115-degree weather. I picked a long sleeve dress for the NHL Awards, so I am probably going to be regretting that real quick! I am excited to see what Carey ends up wearing; he has two suits from Sartorialto, one is a bit more flashy, so I am hoping he chooses that one!
Anyways, to get ready for the awards I got a spray tan. My email is always loaded with questions about fake tanning, so I wanted to do yet another post on the subject.
n any of my pictures if I ever look to have a tan whatsoever it is 100% fake. I am naturally very fair skinned, and I refuse to use tanning beds, and I am way to ADD to ever just lay out in the sun. So I use self-tanners regularly and get spray tans for any special occasion. My favorite brand is Sunna Tan / Organic Tan. I have been using these products for almost two years now and have always loved the outcome.
My favorite products are 'Color me dark' and the 'Grapefruit Min Lotion', which I use to maintain my spray tan. I also use the 'Keep Me Golden' on my face and chest weekly.
My Tips For Tanning:
s much as I wish maintaining a sunless tan was simple it really does take some care and thought. Once it becomes your routine though it will be easier and easier. Here are some tips that I have found really keeps my tans lasting longer and looking better.
Exfoliate!! Shower and give your skin a good scrub, I find it best to do this 12 hours or so before a tan. You want to avoid an oil based exfoliant...I just use an exfoliant mitt to avoid this issue all together. I also have a dry brush I use when I have time.
Shave. A tan glides on way better on smooth skin and I find this helps it last longer.
After applying tanner avoid lotions and sunscreens that contain oil.
Don't shower after applying tanner for at least 12 hours.
It is hard at times but avoid baths if you want your tan to last.
Keep the skin hydrated! Drink plenty of water and lather up that oil free lotion daily.
I hope this answers all the questions!
uch love,
