So what’s the best way to get these results? Perhaps this is why spray tanning has become so common. Tanning this way can be done either at the beauty parlor or at home provided you have the right equipment for the job. Spray tan uses an ingredient called DHA. This is a colorless substance that makes the skin darker by staining it.

A single treatment can take from half an hour to an hour to apply to your entire body. Once you have had the treatment you will look like you’ve just come back from a nice sunny holiday. The treatment lasts for around a week. Before having a spray tan you should make sure that you fully exfoliate your body so that you get a nice consistent tan. You need to make sure that there is no residue of other products as this could stop your skin from taking up the spray tan correctly.

You do have to be careful of the product not getting on your clothing and furniture. You should wear dark baggy clothing for a few hours after the DHA mixture is applied. Anything that is 100% cotton will not stain from this mixture and will not need a stain remover to take it out. Using a good water based lotion will help the tan to last longer.

You can use peroxide on a cotton swab for quick removal of product on the skin. This method of tanning is the top recommendation of dermatologists. It will give you a gorgeous tan and help to hide tan lines, spots and veins which are a great bonus if you are conscious about how you look in your swimwear.

There are some really good tanning solutions that you can use from home if you are willing to pay for the equipment. Some have screens that enable you to adjust the settings from a tap of the screen. The equipment isn’t too large so is easy to store and it is therefore easy to take with you. With this kind of home system you can top up your tan whenever you want.

You do not have to buy a tanning spa to use at home, you can of course visit your local beauty salon that offers this type of treatment. The great thing about getting it done by the professionals is that you get the expert advice about how much spray tan solution will be used and the amount of treatments you need to get the results that you want. If you go regularly they will also be able to help you get the right level of top-up tan to keep the color that you want.

With spray tanning your skin will look healthy and you wont have to worry about dangerous sun damage. You even have the option of having the DHA come out in a fine mist. Instead of going to the old fashion tanning bed, jump on the bandwagon and start getting a spray tan for your tan today.
