Why Get A Self-Tanning Service?

As summer is just around the corner, it’s time to break out the self-service in the form of self-tanning. Self-tanning is just what your skin needs.
The first step for self-tanning is to choose your favorite self-tanner. The Apothecary at Currie offers a variety of tanner products for you to purchase, including products from St. Tropez, Tan Towel and Coola. There are gels, mousses, wipes and lotions so our advice is to try a few of the products. but the gels and lotions are usually the easiest to apply. Some tanners wash right off in the shower, while some last a week or more. In the Currie Day Spa you can schedule a self tanning service where an esthetician will utilize the St. Tropez products to give you a glistening tan, plus exfoliation if you choose!

Things To Do Before Self-Tanning

1. Smooth It Out

Preparing your skin for the tanning application is important. Don’t wax or use any oil-based skin products for at least a day before you apply the tanner. However, you should take a warm towel to open your pores and exfoliate the areas where you will apply the tanning product.

2. Preparation for Self-Tanning

Applying tanning lotion on top of stubble can leave blotches and spots so it will be good for you to shave before you tan. Be sure to dry off completely from the shower and put lotion only on the driest spots.

3. When to Apply Tanning

You should apply tanning at night so that the tan can develop during sleep and you can wash away an excess in the morning.
