Enjoying A Better Look

After struggling for years with the way that I felt about myself, I finally had a friend who was able to give me some much needed beauty advice. She told me that I was wearing too much makeup, and she showed me how to scale things down to look a little better. It was really interesting to see how powerful the difference was after I stopped wearing so much, and it made me feel a lot prettier.

3 Things You Can Do To Get The Best Possible Tan

 If you want to visit a tanning salon so that you can either maintain your tan or get a tan, you want to make sure that you are doing everything you can to get the best results possible. So what are some of the things that you can do in order to get the results that you want from your tanning salons?

Check Your Medications

One thing that you are going to want to do is to check out your medications to see if they say to avoid UV rays or to wear extra sun protection while you are taking that particular medication. There are several that will change the way that your body reacts when it gets exposed to the UV rays, whether they come from a tanning bed or the Sun, and that can mean that you are going to get a very painful sunburn from even a minimal amount of exposure. 

Exfoliate

You also want to make sure that you exfoliate your skin the day before you go in and tan. That way your skin is nice and smooth for the tanning lotion and any other preparations you are going to put on it. For example, you might want to combine using a tanning bed and a sunless tanner in order to get the look you are looking for, and exfoliating your skin prior to the appointment will make sure that your skin will take the sunless tanner the best way possible, and you will end up with a nice, even tan. You should also avoid using any oil-based moisturizers the day of your tanning appointment, for the same reason. 

Protect the Really Sensitive Bits

There are some very sensitive parts of your body that you should make sure that you protect while you are in a tanning bed. That can include your eyes, your lips, and your genitalia. You will need to wear special goggles on your eyes, because you don't want to do anything that might damage your eyesight. You can buy your own or get some at the tanning salon you use. All you really need to do to protect your lips is to use a lip product with added SPF in it. That skin is very delicate and you don't want to have a sunburn on your lips. That goes for your genitalia as well. If you want to tan in the nude or close to it, you might want to ask people at the tanning salon what you can do to make sure that you don't get too much exposure in particularly painful places. It can be as easy as using heavy duty SPF in those areas or covering them up with a small towel or cloth.
