Fake Tanning at Christmas: Tips and Tricks for a Flawless Glow - Lusso Tan

It's the most wonderful time of the year, and what better way to get into the holiday spirit than with a beautiful, golden tan? Whether you're attending a holiday party or just want to add some extra sparkle to your winter wardrobe, fake tanning can be a great way to boost your confidence and give you a healthy, radiant look.

But fake tanning can also be a bit of a daunting task, especially if you're new to it or haven't had the best results in the past. So, to help you get a perfect fake tan for Christmas, here are a few tips and tricks to keep in mind:

  1. Exfoliate before applying your tan. This will help to remove any dead skin cells and create a smooth, even surface for the tanner to adhere to. Make sure to pay extra attention to areas like your knees, ankles, and elbows, as these areas tend to absorb more tan and can become darker than the rest of your skin.
  2. Use a tanning mitt to apply your fake tan. A mitt helps to evenly distribute the tan and prevent streaks, giving you a more natural-looking result. Make sure to use a brush for the hands & face!
  3. Choose the right shade for your skin tone. It's important to pick a tan that matches your natural skin tone as closely as possible. If you have very fair skin, opt for a light or medium shade. For medium to dark skin tones, a dark or ultra dark shade may be more suitable.
  4. Use water only for the first rinse & watch your temperature. The DHA (tanning agent) continues to react with the skin for up to 48 hours after application, so rinsing the guide colour off with water only is preferred.
  5. Moisturize regularly to maintain your tan. Sunless tan hates dehydrated skin, and will begin to fade unevenly if you're not taking care of it. To keep your tan looking fresh and radiant, make sure to moisturize daily, especially after showers or baths.

    With these tips in mind, you'll be well on your way to achieving a flawless fake tan for Christmas. So go ahead and add some extra sparkle to your holiday season with a beautiful, golden glow.
