Sunless tanning is a fantastic way to achieve a sun-kissed glow without exposing your skin to harmful UV rays. However, to get the most even and natural-looking tan, prepping your skin is crucial. The secret to a flawless sunless tan lies in proper exfoliation, and there’s no better way to do it than with SunFXs range of specifically designed pre skin care products. Here’s everything you need to know to get your skin ready for that perfect glow, featuring our SunFX Silk Mitt, Exfoliating Gloves & Body Polish.
Why Exfoliation is Essential for Sunless Tanning
Before diving into the specifics of how to prep your skin, it’s important to understand why exfoliation is such a critical step. Exfoliating your skin helps to remove dead skin cells, ensuring a smoother surface for the tanning product to adhere to. This process not only enhances the absorption of the tanning solution but also prevents the tan from looking patchy or uneven.
Step-by-Step Guide to Prepping Your Skin
Gather your tools:
- SunFX Silk Mitt: Ideal for product free gentle exfoliation and polishing the skin. If you use this glove you only need warm water.
- Choose the Right Exfoliant: If you want to cleanse, rejuvenate & exfoliate all at once SunFX Body Polish is for you. Our Polish is specially formulated to provide a gentle yet thorough exfoliation, making it the ideal choice for prepping your skin for a sunless tan.
- SunFX Exfoliation Mitt: Our extra thick cocoon weave exfoliating gloves are a must have staple item for skin preparation.
Timing is Everything:
Exfoliate 24 hours before your tanning session. This gives your skin time to calm down and ensures better absorption of the tanning product.
The Exfoliation Process:
- Using SunFX Silk Mitt: You have decided to use our silk glove. To get the most out of your glove you are going to soften your skin by either soaking in a warm tub or shower. For a truly indulgent experience, why don’t you run the bath, light a candle, dim the lights, pop some music on and treat yourself to some much deserved you time. Once your skin is nice and soft, use your wet Silk Glove to firmly rub in up & down motions. Watch as your dead skin sloughs off.
- Shower and Cleanse: Start by taking a warm shower or tub to open up your pores and soften your skin. Use a gentle cleanser to remove any dirt, oil, and impurities.
- Exfoliate: Apply SunFX Body Polish in circular motions, using a sunfx exfoliation glove. Focus on rough areas like elbows, knees, and ankles. This will help slough off dead skin cells and create an even canvas for the tanning product. The natural ingredients in SunFX Body Polish not only exfoliate but also nourish your skin, leaving it feeling soft and smooth.
- Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse off the body polish thoroughly to ensure no residue is left on your skin. Any leftover product can interfere with the absorption of the tanning solution.
- Pat Dry: Gently pat your skin dry with a towel. Avoid rubbing your skin, as this can cause irritation and disrupt the smooth surface you’ve just created.
Post Exfoliation Care:
Avoid moisturizing before the application of a sunless product as olis and lotions can interfere with the product’s effectiveness.
Preparing for the Tan:
- Shaving/Waxing:
- Shave or wax at least 24 hours before tanning to allow your skin to recover.
- Avoid Deodorants and Perfumes:
- On the day of tanning, avoid using deodorants or perfumes, as they can react with the tanning product.
- Wear Loose Clothing:
- Opt for loose, dark clothing to avoid staining and allow the tan to develop evenly
