What is sunless tanning with a self tanner?

Sunless tanning stands as a safer alternative to traditional sunbathing. It omits the risk of UV-induced damage, sunburns or premature aging while still bestowing a youthful glow.

The magic behind many self-tanning products is an active ingredient known as dihydroxyacetone (DHA). DHA reacts with the skin's amino acids on its outermost layer, leading to a gradual browning effect. This typically intensifies between two and six hours post-application. To maximize results, exfoliate before using any self-tanning lotion or cream. 

Furthermore, many of today's self tanners and sunless tanning lotions incorporate nourishing ingredients, ensuring your skin remains hydrated and fortified against potential environmental damage. However, regardless of whether you use self-tanning products, always prioritize sun protection. Sunscreen remains essential, ensuring your skin's health and well-being.

How to get self tanner off hands?

While mastering your self-tanner application, it's common to overlook hand-cleaning afterward. Don't worry, it happens. Start by washing your hands with soap and warm water. If traces remain, a paste of baking soda and water can help. Gently scrub and rinse. For tenacious tints, opt for a commercial tan remover or even whitening toothpaste.
