It would be great if you could be tanned all year round, but summer is too short. Besides, it is not very healthy for you to be exposed to dangerous sun rays too frequently. The easiest way to achieve lovely bronze tan is to use different self tanning products.

Being exposed to sun rays in the morning can be beneficial for your health. Noon sun rays are something else. They might cause sunburns, skin cancer, spots and other unwanted side effects. Premature skin aging is often caused with overexposure to dangerous sun rays. People with sensitive skin should always use sunblock creams outside.

You probably have several solarium salons in your area. It takes some time and money, but you can achieve desired tan there. The problem is the price, on the first place. One session is not nearly enough, and frequent exposure can also be dangerous for your skin, especially if you have really sensitive one. This treatment can also speed up your skin aging process.

The best thing about different self-tanners is that you can have desired bronze tan whenever you want. Really wide variety of great quality products is available. Creams, gels, foams, lotions and prays are so easy to use and so effective. All are really affordable, gentle to all skin types and contain skin moisturizers to protect even the most sensitive skin.

These products are very light, quickly absorbed into skin and gently scented. Instant tanners are also available in a form of a spray, very easy to apply. All instant products can be washable or permanent.

Overnight lotions take one to three hours to fully develop your chosen color. Application is simple, and it is easiest to apply the lotion in the evening. This way you will have wonderful bronze shade in the morning, and it will look perfectly natural. Lotions can also be in spray. Home airbrush sets are especially practical.

Most quality products contain DHA. DHA is based on sugar, and in reaction with outer skin layer, it produces skin coloration. If you prefer darker tan, choose the product with higher DHA percentage. Thanks to the fact that DHA reacts with dead skin cells in surface skin layer, the color will gradually fade away, just like natural bronze tan would.

Before applying the product, you need to exfoliate. Pay special attention to rough skin areas such as heels and elbows. You need to exfoliate before each re-application as well, to remove all dead skin cells and to make your skin smooth. Use moisturizers every day. If you would like to have even more natural looking tan, use a special bronzer on some areas, according to instruction you will find on the package.
