How To Maintain A Gorgeous Tan Even During The Colder Months

How many times has it happened to you that you came back from a vacation with a beautiful sun-kissed complexion, and the color started to fade after just a few days?

The fact is that a darker complexion makes you visually look fresher, more rested, more toned, and your natural beauty is additionally emphasized. So it is not surprising that many try in every possible way to keep it as long as possible. For this very reason, it’s a good idea to have a few tricks up your sleeve that will help your tan last as long as possible.

But first of all, know that it is extremely important to know that lying in the sun without sunscreen will not contribute to a darker complexion lasting longer. On the contrary. In addition to accelerating skin peeling, you also run the risk of damaging the barrier and harming your health. That’s why SPF must be your number one step when exposing yourself to the sun’s rays.

Hydration

Hydration is an extremely important step, both after sunbathing and before, and this is where the secret to a long-lasting tan lies. Butters with healing oils like jojoba is a fantastic way to nourish your skin without clogging your pores. Also, it is recommended that you use lotions that are specifically designed to maintain color so that you can have a tanned complexion for as long as possible.

Showering with cooler water

Another thing that is recommended when you come back from vacation and you don’t want the color to fade is to avoid showering with extremely hot water. The reason is very simple: hot water dries out the skin, which leads to faster peeling.

When it comes to shower gels, experts advise using light, nourishing formulas, especially good non-foaming formulas. As well as shower oils because they additionally hydrate the skin making the tan less likely to fade.

Forget about harsh scrubs

Mechanical peels are not something that is normally recommended because they cause micro-tears on the skin. That can actually accelerate the appearance of wrinkles. However, exfoliation is very important when you want to keep your tan. But it is recommended to use gentler products no more than 2 times a week.

Softer towels

This rule follows from the previous one, and the advice is not to use too harsh towels, they just work like the above-mentioned mechanical scrubs. Try to remove the moisture by patting, not rubbing. It would be best if you are able to let the skin absorb the moisture. This way you will give it an extra dose of hydration.

Fake it ‘til you make it

If everything else fails, you can always use a self-tanner! Self-tanners contain active ingredients that stimulate melanocytes. This will give you bronzed look even in the middle of December. There are plenty of products available to choose from, lotions, sprays, foams, and more. This is the safest option for anyone who wants to have a tan throughout the whole year.
