"Hi, my name is Rachel Perelli Randolf and I'm here with Expert Village on self tanning tips and right now I'm going to be talking to you about how to start this process. The first thing you want to do is the first and foremost and everyone does this pretty much everyday I hope, is take a shower. When you take a shower you want to make sure you lather up and shave for women, men you don't have to shave, but women you should shave. It also is a part of the exfoliation process but it gives you that nice, smooth, clean layer that you want when you apply everything, it goes on great when everything is so even, it works out really well. Shaving is very important, and you also want to apply a lot of soap to your legs and after you shave you don't want to do harsh rubbing because you don't want to cause irritation because on top of the irritation you'll apply the tanning and then it will cause burning and use gel at least. That's really important, don't forget to shower and next up we're going to be talking about exfoliation."
