As spring rolls in and the days start to warm up, keeping your fake tan looking fresh can become a little more challenging. Increased heat and sweating can cause your tan to fade faster or develop unevenly-especially in areas like the chest, back, and behind the knees.
The secret to a long-lasting glow starts with prep.
Applying a tanning primer before your tan creates the perfect base, helping to smooth the skin and ensure a more even, longer-lasting result. Always make sure your skin is completely cool and dry before application-tanning straight after a hot shower can lead to streaks and patchiness.
Applying your tan in the evening is another simple but effective step. It allows your tan to develop overnight when your body is cooler, reducing the chances of sweating interfering with the finish.
Lusso Tan is perfect for warmer weather thanks to its lightweight, fast-absorbing formula. It doesn’t sit heavily on the skin, meaning it develops evenly and comfortably—even as temperatures rise.
When it comes to maintenance, hydration is key.
Keeping your skin moisturised will help your tan fade more evenly, but for an extra boost, incorporating a gradual tan into your routine can make all the difference. Topping up your colour every few days with a gradual tan helps maintain that fresh, just-applied glow without needing to start from scratch.
It’s also important to minimise friction where possible. Loose, breathable clothing-especially in the first 24 hours-will help prevent your tan from wearing off unevenly.
Warmer weather doesn’t mean sacrificing your glow-it just means adjusting your routine. With the right prep, the addition of a tanning primer, and regular use of a gradual tan, you can keep your skin looking radiant, smooth, and sun-kissed all season long.
