Top Fake Tan Mistakes & How to Fix Them: A Lusso Tan Guide ✨
Achieving a flawless fake tan is easier said than done, but with the right prep and products, you can get that perfect glow without the streaks, patches, or tell-tale signs of a self-tan mishap. At Lusso Tan, we know the importance of getting it right—here’s our guide to common fake tan mistakes and how to fix them like a pro!
1. Skipping the Prep 🧖✨
The Mistake:
Not exfoliating or moisturising properly before tanning is one of the biggest culprits behind a patchy tan. Dry, flaky skin grabs onto more product, resulting in uneven colour and streaks.
The Fix:
Always exfoliate at least 24 hours before tanning- you can use our exfoliating mitt and shower bars to gently exfoliate. Follow up with our lightweight perfecting primer to create the perfect base. Pay extra attention to dry areas like elbows, knees, and ankles.
2. Using Too Much Product 🙅🥥
The Mistake:
Thinking that more product equals a darker tan can actually backfire, causing the tan to go patchy or fade unevenly.
The Fix:
Less is more! Our Lusso Tan Tanning Mousse is highly pigmented, so start with a light layer and build up gradually. Use a tanning mitt for an even application.
3. Neglecting Your Hands & Feet 🦶👐
The Mistake:
These tricky areas often end up looking too dark or too light because they’re harder to blend and tend to soak up more product.
The Fix:
After applying tan to your body, use the leftover product on your mitt for your hands and feet. For an even more natural finish, our Lusso Tan Flawless Tanning Mitt and Mousse Brush makes blending a breeze.
4. Overlooking Aftercare 🛁🌿
The Mistake:
Skipping aftercare can shorten your tan’s lifespan and make it fade unevenly.
The Fix:
Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Use our Lusso Tan Perfecting Primer daily to keep skin soft and prolong your tan. Avoid harsh soaps and hot showers to extend your golden glow.
