In the 1960s health authorities announced that sun exposure could be harmful to the skin, and may even cause skin cancer. So since then people have turned to alternatives with solariums and self tanning lotions. In the early days self tanners tended to produce unnatural looking results, but thankfully new technologies have now led to excellent self tanner products, including Giesee Sun Self Tanning Lotion.

Most self tanning lotions contain a chemical known as DHA (dihydroxyacetone). This chemical is found in sugar beet so it is naturally occurring. It is harmless to people and to the environment. The FDA recommends that tanning lotions contain below 14 percent DHA.

DHA darkens the surface layers of the skin by causing a chemical reaction. It does not alter skin pigmentation or stain the skin in any way. As the out layer of the skin contains dead skin cells that react with DHA is it important to exfoliate before applying self tanning lotions. This will help the tan stay even as older cells will come off. Exfoliating ensures that all cells are the same age.

As DHA reacts with the dead cells on the out later of the skin, it is extremely important to exfoliate before applying self tanner. Otherwise the tan may end up looking patchy as older dead cells fall off. It is also a good idea to moisturise after exfoliating. This will make the tan last longer and sit better because keeping the skin moisturized with slow down the loss of dead skin cells.

Regular users of self tanners should exfoliate at least once between each tanning session. This way tans will last longer and will look nice, smooth and even. Just like you live in the tropics!

Tanning lotions are easily applied and do not stain clothing or damage hair. Although many people prefer to self tan naked with a shower cap. A towel can be used to dry after tanning and it will not remove any of the DHA so the tan will still be even.

It is also a good idea to avoid bathing or sweating for about 4 hours after applying the tanner, as this may remove or weaken the tanning effect. Most tans will appear by the next day, although the effect begin after just a few hours. Some people may find the tan appears in full after an extra day, especially if they have lighter skin. Giesee's products are perfectly fine for those who have sensitive skin. If you have skin conditions it may be wise to consult a doctor before using a self tanner.

Tanning lotions are available as sprays, lotions and creams. Sprays tend to better at producing a more even tan, and they are easier to apply. Giesee produce their excellent products in spray form. Regular users of tanners can save money by buying in larger quantities. Have a look online for Giesee Sun Self Tanning Lotion and find a deal that is perfect for you.
