How to Get a Tan Quicker

Go from pale skin to dark skin in about an hour.

For generations, tan lovers have worked for weeks and even longer to get a deep rich tan the old-fashioned way --- lying out in the sun. Today, with improvements in tanning products, you can get that same deep tan, but temporarily. Quickly get a good tan by preparing your skin and then applying several applications of self-tanning products. There are other alternatives to getting a tan, but none as fast as using self-tanning products.

Things You'll Need

• Razor
• Exfoliating body cleanser
• Pouf
• Soft towel
• Tanning spray
• Tanning lotion

Instructions

1. Shave the areas of your body you normally shave. Exfoliate the rest of your body using an exfoliating body cleanser.

2. Scrub your body with a pouf for about one minute. Rinse the skin clean with warm water. Pat your skin dry with a soft towel.

3. Sweep on the tanning spray starting first at the lower legs and working upwards. Spray on the product evenly, moving it back and forth across the skin.

4. Rub on tanning lotion to your skin starting at the tops of the feet and work upwards.

5. Wash your hands and feet with water to remove any excess. Wait for 30 minutes before putting on your clothing.
