טייפּס פון טאַנינג

There are several types of self-tanners:

  • Lotion or milk. They have moderate fluidity, and due to it it is convenient to apply the product. It turns out an even tan.

  • שפּריץ. This is one of the most convenient options – it is applied quickly and evenly distributed if you follow the instructions.

How to choose self-tanner for the body

First of all, decide which type of self-tanning is right for you. If you need to carry it with you, then look at the spray or napkins, but if you mainly apply it at home, then a cream or even a concentrate is better.

Pay attention to the composition – let it contain useful oils and plant extracts, because self-tanning should not only give a tanned body, but also nourish it. Ideally, the composition should contain olive oil, apricot kernel oil, vitamin E.

When buying, be sure to read the reviews on the selected product, and if in doubt, consult the seller.

Buy the product in specialized stores so as not to run into a fake.

פאָלקס שאלות און ענטפֿערס

Is self-tanning harmful to the skin and the body as a whole, how to apply it correctly, how to care for the skin after the experts will answer – dermatologist Karina Mazitova and tanner Kristina Zheltukhina.

Is self-tanning harmful to the skin and body?

– Most girls love to be tanned all year round and do not get out of the solarium! This is just very harmful. Self-tanners are not. Most importantly, read the ingredients carefully. If there are parabens, put the product back on the shelf. With a constant visit to the solarium, the risk of developing melanoma increases. It is statistically proven that the incidence of melanoma is higher among people who visited the solarium. I’m not talking about premature wrinkles and early aging. Therefore, choose tanning – it does not penetrate deeply, but is only on the upper layers of the epidermis, – says דערמאַטאַלאַדזשיסט Karina Mazitova.

The tanning master will answer the rest of the questions:

What are the advantages and disadvantages of self-tanning?

There are a lot of pluses:

  • even and beautiful tan in 15-30 minutes;
  • tanning is safe and suitable for absolutely everyone (pregnant, nursing mothers, as well as people with a large number of moles who should never tan);
  • does not dry the skin, additionally moisturizes;
  • when using a booster, you can choose the intensity yourself – from light and natural to saturated and ultra dark shades;
  • dermatologists have proven the safety of the lotion components, so the procedure can be repeated regularly.

The only disadvantages can be attributed only to the fact that a girl, due to ignorance, can apply self-tanning in a wrong way, and it will lie unevenly. You can also stain your clothes if you start dressing right away.

What are the contraindications for self-tanning?

Open wounds, allergies to components that are part of self-tanning, skin diseases – eczema, psoriasis.

How to apply self-tanner?

In order for the tan to last a long time, it will turn out uniform, you need to follow a few recommendations:

  • Training. Do a body scrub the day before the procedure, start moisturizing the skin abundantly five days before the procedure.
  • Apply the product slowly, gently in front of a mirror.
  • Do not dress ahead of time, let the product dry on you. The instructions say how long the self-tanner dries.

Then you can get dressed and do the planned things.

How long will the tan last and how to prolong it as much as possible?⠀

Self-tanning will last from several days to a week. It depends on several factors:

  • on the condition and characteristics of your skin (on healthy and well-groomed skin, a tan will last longer);
  • from preparing the skin for tanning (a few days before the procedure, we moisturize it abundantly with creams, and before the session itself we do a scrub);
  • from proper tan care after the procedure.

In the first hours after the procedure, we do not come into contact with water (we must not wash our hands, get caught in the rain, cry), exclude physical activity – we must not sweat, immediately after the procedure we do not touch the body, do not cross our legs, do not comb and do not injure the skin. The first shower should be taken without detergents and washcloths, just rinse off the composition with water. Do not rub the skin with a towel, just gently blot.
