Things You'll Need:
- Washcloths
- Body Liquid Cleansers
- Body Lotion
- Self-tanners
-
Step 1
Experiment with a portion of your body that no one will see to determine how your skin responds to a particular self-tanner formula.
-
Step 2
Cleanse your body with a liquid cleanser, then exfoliate your skin gently with a washcloth or loofah while bathing.
-
Step 3
Dry your skin completely.
-
Step 4
Apply a tiny amount of light moisturizing lotion if you have dry skin.
-
Step 5
Decide which parts of your body you want to have color.
-
Step 6
Start with your face, then move down your body. Use only enough tanner to cover the area you're working on; get help from a friend if you want color on your back.
-
Step 7
Use a damp paper towel to take off any excess tanner on such areas as the neck, knees and elbows.
-
Step 8
Wash your hands immediately.
-
Step 9
Avoid getting dressed for at least 20 minutes to allow the tanner to dry.
-
Step 10
Exfoliate every day and apply more self-tanner every three or four days, experimenting with how much you need.

on 6/5/2009 I love self tanner. I am at the beach constantly in the summer but use tons of sun block. Good self tanner is a great "fake out" and so much better than wrinkles! 5*
