4) Easy tan
Self tanning oil can help you achieve tan without exposing yourself under the sun. Self tanners can also be used to cover up those tan lines or if you have an uneven tan.
5) Price and benefits
As much as possible, choose a product based on the benefits that it can give you and not on the price. You may have probably bought the cheapest one, but only to realize in the end that it has very poor outcome.
However, if you really are on a tight budget there are some good drugstore finds or homemade ones.
6) Tanning oil made at home
These things will really help those budget-conscious beauties and even the ones with very sensitive skin. What is good about these homemade tanning oils is that you know exactly what is in the product. Some might have ingredients that are not really good for the skin.
7) Survey helps
Ask your friends and relatives for opinions. Some might suggest the best products that they have tried, but keep in mind that what is good on someone does not necessarily mean it is good for you too. It will always depend on your skin type and what your skin needs.
8) Types of tan
Decide on the kind of tan you want to achieve. Different products also offer different protection for your skin.
As you are exposed to the sun, your skin looses the natural nutrients and your tanning oil should be the one to provide you with the minerals, amino acids and moisture that it needs. Some want their skin lightly blushed, average tan and even complex tan.
9) Less sun is better
The lesser time you will be exposed under the sun, the better the product is. This is good because you will have less chance of having skin damages caused by sun. Do not stay under the sun too long in order to tan yourself. Overexposing yourself can harm your skin. It is better to tan yourself gradually.
Never forget to drink lots of water and fruits to give you and your skin natural moisture. Furthermore, do not forget to wear your sunglasses to protect your eyes.
