Maintaining your beautiful BodiBronze tan requires more than just a great application. It's essential to follow proper care routines to keep your glow lasting longer and looking its best. Whether you're a sunless tanning pro or new to the game, here are the crucial do's and don'ts to keep your tan flawless.
Do's
1. Moisturize Daily Keeping your skin hydrated is the key to a long-lasting tan. Moisturize your skin daily with a hydrating, oil-free lotion to prevent dryness and flakiness, which can cause your tan to fade prematurely. Consider using our BodiBasicz Daily Moisturizer and BodiBronze Lockz, they are specifically designed for sunless tans, providing your skin with the deep moisturization needed to maintain the perfect color.
2. Pat Your Skin Dry After showering or swimming, gently pat your skin dry with a towel rather than rubbing it. Rubbing can cause exfoliation and uneven fading of your tan. Patting your skin dry helps maintain an even tone and extends the life of your tan.
3. Wear Loose Clothing Right after your tanning session, it's important to wear loose, dark clothing to avoid smudging your tan. Tight clothing can rub against your skin, leading to uneven patches and streaks. Stick to cotton fabrics that allow your skin to breathe and your tan to set properly.
4. Stay Hydrated Drinking plenty of water is essential for your skin's health. Staying hydrated keeps your skin plump and radiant, which in turn helps your tan look more natural and last longer.
Don'ts
1. Avoid Harsh Exfoliants While exfoliating before your tan is crucial, you should avoid harsh exfoliants after your tan. Scrubs with coarse beads or acids can strip away your tan. Instead, opt for gentle exfoliants if you need to refresh your skin.
2. Don’t Take Long, Hot Baths Long exposure to hot water can cause your skin to shed its outer layer more quickly, leading to a faster fade of your tan. Stick to quick showers with lukewarm water to preserve your tan's longevity.
3. Steer Clear of Oil-Based Products Oil-based lotions and body washes can break down the ingredients in your sunless tan, leading to an uneven fade. Always check the ingredients in your skincare products and choose oil-free options instead.
Final Thoughts
Taking the time to follow these do's and don'ts will help you maintain your BodiBronze tan for as long as possible. Remember, proper care not only extends the life of your tan but also ensures that your skin remains healthy and radiant.
