When applying a self tanner, follow some of the tips and tricks listed below to ensure a beautiful, natural, and seamlessly glowing end result…
1. Exfoliate! Exfoliate! Exfoliate!!! Exfoliation is key when applying any type of lotion but its even more imperative when applying a self tanner. Exfoliating the skin will allow for better application and penetration of the product, it will also help to ensure an even natural look. Without exfoliating you may notice dark patchy areas on the parts of your body that may be dryer, making your tan look un-natural and blotchy.
2. Always work with a clean Canvas. Self Tanners adhere better to clean product free skin; this means no moisturizers, oils, deodorants, or perfumes. These products can create a type of barrier on top of the skin causing bare patches when the product was unable to penetrate the skin. Its recommended to apply self tanner after you’ve showered, preferably 15+ minutes after to ensure your skin is completely dry.
3. Start Gradually You don’t have to put on the whole bottle your first application, in fact, we highly advise against it. Au Courant’s products go a long way and are great to build on to get the perfect color for you. Put on a pair of gloves and start with a light application first, if you feel you want to be darker then apply a second or third coat, but remember, Au Courant’s self tanners continue to develop and get darker for up to 8 hours after application, so don’t put on too much the first time or you may turn out darker then you wanted. If you’re not dark enough after the first full application, perform another application the next day. Make sure that you rub in the product thoroughly during each application. *If you get too much product in areas, such as your hands if you don’t wear gloves, wash then with warm water and a dab of shaving cream, this will take away the product completely from those areas.
4. Avoid certain activities after application To ensure a seamless streak free look make sure to avoid any activities that may cause you to sweat or may cause rubbing of constricting clothing on your skin. Sweat or any form of water will cause the developing of the product to stop which can leave you with a streaky or blotchy tan, to avoid this, just simply relax after self tanning application. We suggest applying the product at night when you don’t have anything to do after and can relax in loose fitting clothing before bed.
5. Wash away the excess After allowing the product to develop for 8+ hours rinse off the excess with warm water. Avoid exfoliating as this will strip the tan off and you’ll have to start again from step 1.
6. Enjoy all the compliments you will receive on your beautiful natural looking glow!!!
Note: Au Courant’s products are all vegetable based so don’t worry if some comes off on your clothes or on your sheets after application, it is 100% washable!!
