How to Get a Natural Looking Tan Using Spray Tan

There's no need to worry about sun exposure or ultraviolet rays when you use a spray tanner. The formula stains your skin, making it look tan. And, it lasts for about a week. Self-tanners give people another option to indoor tanning booths. The industry has evolved over the last few years, so it's easier than ever to get a natural looking tan using spray tan. Does this Spark an idea?

Instructions

    • 1

      Make an appointment at a Mystic Tanning salon. The night before, shower and exfoliate your skin. Follow with a moisturizer.

    • 2

      Wear whatever you want to the session. The booth is completely private, so you can wear nothing while you tan to avoid tan lines.

    • 3

      Cover your hair with a shower cap if you want to. Stand completely still while the tan sprays you evenly. It will tan all the exposed skin.

    • 4

      Do it yourself at home. Buy a product like Neutrogena Micro Mist tanning spray.

    • 5

      Clean and exfoliate your skin. When you're completely dry, hold the can about 6 inches from your body and spray in a sweeping motion. Keep the can constantly moving. At the end of each stroke, stop spraying.

    • 6

      Get all the hard to reach places with no problem. Many spray tan products are made to spray in all directions, even if the can is upside down.

    • 7

      Moisturize your skin to keep it glowing. Reapply the spray tan after five to six days.

Tips & Warnings

  • There's no need to rub in spray tan.

  • Apply the tanner to your fingers or to a makeup sponge and apply it to your face.

  • Always wear sun block when you're outside.

  • Wash hands immediately after applying spray tan.

  • Don't apply too much spray tan on rough areas like knees, elbows and ankles.

  • Pay close attention when you're spraying your hands, wrists and ankles. These areas tend to show the tan more than others, looking unnatural. If necessary, use a makeup sponge to apply the self tanner.
