The key to a sun-kissed glow without any sunbathing involved? Fake tan. Read on for tricks how to prep your face before fake tanning to achieve a perfectly bronzed, even and luminous complexion.
- Cleanse your face
Rid your complexion of makeup and impurities before you do anything else. We suggest double cleansing with an oil-based cleanser first, followed by a water-based cleanser to ensure a thorough cleanse.
- Exfoliate the skin
Make sure to exfoliate properly to remove dead skin cells — not only will it leave your skin soft and radiant but ensure an even application and help avoid patchy tan.
- Moisturise
Self tan tends to cling to dry patches. Lightly moisturize your face, paying extra attention to any dry spots, to help prevent streaks. Then go ahead and apply your fake tan, according to product instructions.
