Apply the tanning product:

First apply the tanning lotion evenly on the bigger areas of the body like back, limbs and stomach. Then move on the feet, neck, knees and ankles, if the tan darkens too much on these areas, and then use a towel to buff away the product as it darkens. Use a mitt or plastic glove that will prevent the color from staining your hands.

When tanning you hands, mix cream and tanner together to get the natural look. Use a tanner designed especially for the face as it has softer ingredients, you can also use a bronzer to match the rest of your body.

Tanning creams offer the most moisturizing, there are mostly non-tinted, so make sure that you apply it evenly. Tinted gels usually work very fast, so you will have to apply them even faster, but they do have a drying effect on the skin. Sprays are perfect for topping up a tan, look for one that has a 360 degree nozzle, but it is advisable to go to a tanning salon for a perfect spray tan.
