- 5 Cheap Tanning Lotion Tips
For Summer
By: James Allen
With summer approaching, it's
time to pull out the tanning lotion yet again. It's not cheap
though, is it? So here are a few tips to help make your bottle
of bronze stretch a little further this tanning season.
Pay attention to application.
To apply tanning products most effeciently, begin working on
a small area. Then, softly and in an even manner, rub in the
product - but not too generously.
|
If you work your way out to other
areas in a swirling, but still gentle and even rub, rather than
going in an up-and-down direction, you will stretch your product
further and still have the same level of effectiveness.
Getting to those hard to reach
areas like your back may require an extra hand.
Diluting is OK. When using these
lotions on more sensitive areas like your knees, feet, hands
and elbows, either dilute first with a moisturizing lotion or
use very small amounts when gently rubbing in. |
|
Rubbing with a make-up sponge
applicator works well for these areas, too. Doing this will help
prevent build up, irritation and waste.
Remember to use sunblock too!
Many tanning lotions do not contain any level of SPF protection.
Remember the basics, long and light clothes and high SPF sunblock
to protect your skin at the same time.
If you make an effort and follow
these tips, a little bit of lotion will go a long way, so slow
and steady does it. |
