Avoid the embarrassment this bikini season and follow our simple steps to bronze goddess stardom (a la Gisele).
Step One: Exfoliate
In order to achieve a flawless finish you need to exfoliate dry, dead skin that cause patchiness. Concentrate on exfoliating areas such as knees, elbows and ankles.
Make sure the skin is completely dry for a smooth even application.
Try: Garnier body tonic is a great sugar scrub which leaves your skin feeling soft, sooth and toned.
Step Two: Choose your formula
With a number of great new products on the market, tanning has never been so easy there are a variety of shades and formula’s to suit everyone’s needs!
Sprays are easy to use with no blending required and an ‘airbrushed’ and even honey toned finish. Apply in the bathroom so you can easily rinse away any formula that may end up on the tiles.
Try: Le Tan in a Can Deep Bronze.
Wait ten to fifteen minutes before dressing and eight hours before washing as the tan will deepen in this time. Applying your tan before bed will ensure you wake up a bronzed goddess. But beware, your sheets might too!
Tanning the face? Choose a gradual tanner to control the colour. Use one every day to protect you from the sun and keep that natural summer glow.
Try: Dove Summer Glow Face Moisturiser SPF 15.
Tip: Don’t forget to wash your hands after you tan, so you don’t give your secret away!
Step Three: Cover your tracks
Even the experts sometimes make mistakes. Correct yours with Self Tan Remover. This specially formulated remover with no acetone removes unsightly tan marks with ease. No more messy hands.
Try: Le Tan Self Tan Remover.
Step Four: Top up
Chances are that if your skin isn’t subtle your tan will flake off within days. To maintain your tan, top-up the colour intensity by using a tan extender a few days after your initial application.
Sexy and healthy summer skin, has never been so easy.
