Face Tanning

Face tan with a safe sunless tanning lotion

May 17, 2006 Chrissy Dolezal

With summer right around the corner this is now the time to break out your bottle of sunless tan. And contrary to what you believe, you can use it for a perfect face tan

Many people are scared to apply sunless tanning lotion to their face. It is something about being streaky and orange. Sunless tanning lotion can look very natural and pretty when done the correct way. With these tips you can have a safe, streak-free sunless tan on your face.

First exfoliate with a mask.
Second mix, in equal parts, sunless tanning lotion and your favorite moisturizer. I put just a small dab of each in the palm of my hand and stir it around with a cotton swab or my finger.
Last step, apply in upward, circular motions to your face and neck. Be careful around your hairline, eyebrows, and ears.

Don't forget to wash your hands!

I love to use sunless tanning lotion at night so you wake up with a beautiful tan.

However, in the morning if it doesn't look exactly like you had hoped, exfoliate your skin again. This will help buff away any mistakes you might have made and help it fade quickly.
