By Haywood Hunter


People are always looking for ways to improve their outside appearance. One way to do this is by using a sun tanning lotion that is gentle on the skin and creates great results. Most new skin sun tanning lotions can be use all year round with the same positive results.

Since many people now prefer to sun tanning all year round it is important to use products that are safe and protect the skin. When choosing a good product you want to make sure you select one that is made for your type of skin and will protect you from the sun as well when using beds to tan. Many people do prefer to get their tans indoors when the weather does not allow them to achieve the look desired.

To get the best results when there are some extra steps that you can do to prepare your skin. Exfoliating your skin before exposing it to sun rays. Exfoliating helps to remove dead cells. You can do this by purchasing a scrubbing product and washing with warm water. You should do this for at least one day a week. It is important to protect your skin as much as possible for future problems from sun tanning.

Sun tanning lotion should be applied 25 to 30 minutes before going out in the sun. All areas of the body that is exposed should have lotion put on it. If there are places on the body that you are unable to reach, you should have someone reach it for you. The purpose of doing this is so your body will tan slowly and not all at once to avoid severe skin irritation.

You also want to drink plenty of water or other hydrating liquids. It is a great idea to start drinking these fluids before going out to tan. After you are in the sun for a while it still a good idea to continue sipping on fluids. You want to keep your body and skin as hydrated as possible.

Make sure you keep track of the time while you are out sun tanning. You definitely do not want to fall asleep or forget how long you have allowed your skin to be exposed to sun or ultraviolet rays. Carrying a watch along will help you keep track and reduce the amount of damages that could be caused by being overexposed to sun rays while sun tanning.

Remember that exposure to the sun will naturally reduce the moisture that is in the skin. So, after getting a tan it is important to reapply as much of that moisture back into your skin as possible. Make sure you use products that lock in moisture and will help rejuvenate your skins natural look. You will find that most of your quality made skin care products come with a lock in moisturizer. Taking a cold shower after getting a tan and then applying a lock in moisturizer product will protect your skin.

It is a good idea to really research your sun tanning products before just purchasing any kind. More of the expensive products work really well to help give you the look that is desired. Sometimes it is best to pay a little more for the tanning product than to have to worry about skin complication later.
