5 Easy Ways To Make Your Tan Last Longer!

The easiest and most effortless way to maintain a healthy and natural glow year round is by wearing fake tan.

But the question is: how do you make it last longer? There are 5 easy ways to ensure that your faux tan lasts for 5-7 days !

Let's get started!

1. Exfoliate.

Exfoliation is the key to beautiful, vibrant skin! This will remove any dead cells and allow new ones to build up more easily.

Plus it allows your skin to absorb nourishing ingredients such as Aloe Vera and Collagen inside BeautiEdit's Self-Tanning Foam.

Exfoliate, exfoliate, exfoliate!

2. Moisturise.

A moisturiser is a must to maintain an even tan as well as making your skin look glowing and hydrated. Some areas of the body tend to be much drier than others (e.g elbows, knees) tan can cling to these areas & cause an uneven colour tone.

Moisturising these "problem" zones will create a flawless, even tan as the product will glide onto your skin!

Don't forget to moisturise the day after tanning! Applying a light layer every day is key to maintaining that perfect tan!

3. Use a good quality self-tanner.

It's essential that your self tanner has moisturising ingredients and is kind to the skin.

Some fake tan products contain harsh chemicals that irritate the skin and block pores.

Thankfully BeautiEdit's Self Tanning Foam only contains beneficial ingredients such as hyaluronic acid that hydrates the skin while providing flawless coverage!

4. Use a tanning mitt to prevent streaks and mess.

A good-quality tanning mitt will provide even coverage while also protecting your hands from getting stained.

That's why we recommend using a tanning glove like BeautiEdit's Tanning Mitt. This mitt offers great protection, excellent grip, and is made out of durable materials that won't fray or fall apart.

With our mitt on hand, you'll have no trouble applying an even coat of product without worrying about going overboard or leaving any spots untouched!

5. Take lukewarm showers.

It’s so easy to ruin your tan by taking a hot shower.

Skin is dehydrated and prone to peeling in these temperatures so if you want a longer lasting tan - swapping out those steamy sessions for cool showers is a must!

Also avoid using sulfate-based shower gels or ones that are really bubbly as they can dry the skin, also avoid using oil based cleansing agents as oil will break down the tan.

Use PH balanced mild cleansers for long lasting results that won't ruin you tan!

A great fake tan can make your skin look healthier and give you a sun-kissed glow.

And with a few easy steps it's easy to maintain the perfect tan, so we hope our guide for how to ensure that your fake tan looks even and lasts long is helpful!

Just remember these tips: exfoliate, moisturize, take lukewarm showers and use high quality products like ours!

Now go out there and show off your glowing tan!
