How to Self-Tan Overnight?

Published in Self-Tanning 2 mins read

To achieve a beautiful and even tan overnight, follow these steps:

  1. Prepare your skin: Shower before bed and remove all makeup, deodorant, lotion, and perfume. This ensures your skin is clean and free of any barriers that could prevent the tan from developing evenly.
  2. Apply the self-tanner: Use a LuxeBody Bronzing Mousse, or any other self-tanner of your choice. Apply it evenly to your skin, paying extra attention to areas like elbows, knees, and ankles.
  3. Let the tanner dry: Allow the self-tanner to dry for about 5 minutes before dressing. This will help prevent the tan from rubbing off onto your clothes.
  4. Wear loose clothing: Put on loose pajama bottoms and a t-shirt to avoid rubbing the tanner onto your sheets.
  5. Protect your bedding: Place a towel over your pillow to prevent any potential staining.
  6. Sleep soundly: Once you're ready for bed, hop in and sleep soundly. Let the self-tanner work its magic while you rest!

Additional Tips:

  • Use a tanning mitt: Applying self-tanner with a tanning mitt helps to achieve a more even application and reduce the chances of streaks.
  • Exfoliate beforehand: Exfoliating before applying the self-tanner will remove dead skin cells and create a smoother surface for the tan to develop evenly.
  • Hydrate your skin: Applying a light moisturizer before applying self-tanner will help to minimize any streaking.
  • Consider a gradual tanner: For a more subtle and gradual tan, opt for a gradual self-tanner that can be applied every day.

Remember: Always read and follow the instructions on your specific self-tanner product.
