Achieving a flawless self-tan starts with proper skin preparation. Shaving is a key step, but timing plays a role in maximizing your results
Here’s how to get it right:
-
Shave 24 Hours Before Tanning: Shaving can exfoliate the skin, so it's best to do it a day before applying self-tanner. This allows your skin to recover and ensures an even application.
-
Exfoliate: Use an exfoliator mitt, like Elan Pure, full-body mitt, to remove dead skin cells before shaving. This helps prevent clogged pores and ensures a smooth surface for the tanner.
-
Use a Fresh Razor: A sharp, clean razor minimizes irritation and provides a close shave, maximizing your results when applying the self-tanner.
-
Moisturize After Shaving: Hydrate your skin with a toxin-free moisturizer to soothe and prepare it for tanning. Avoid products with heavy oils that can interfere with the tanner. For the best types of moisturizers to maximize the results, click here.
-
Avoid Shaving Immediately After Tanning: Wait at least 24 hours post-self tan to shave again. This helps maintain the tan's longevity and evenness.
By following these steps, you’ll create the perfect canvas for a beautiful, natural-looking tan.
