Nowadays, the number of sunbathers on the beach has decreased as compared to before. The reason for this is because studies have shown that being exposed to too much ultraviolet rays from the sun is actually very harmful to the skin. However, if one would still want that darker look without putting her skin in danger, she can do so with a fake suntan.

These days, many people have come up with products or services that allow one to tan himself without going under the sun. Getting a fake suntan is actually much safer as compared to getting a real one because there is no risk of being exposed to ultraviolet or UV rays. So for frequent sunbathers who want an alternative, here are some tips on how to have a good fake suntan.

Probably the best place to get a fake suntan is at a salon or a beauty parlor. These places have specialists and special machines called airbrushes that will help give that bronze complexion. Although a full body tanning is quite expensive, they do charge less if the customer only wants to tan certain parts of the body like the face, the torso or the legs.

Of course not everyone will want to pay for this kind of service which is why self tanning products were invented. When doing a fake suntan, one must first buy the tanning cream and moisturizer. Mix some of the tanning cream with the moisturizer and use it on the face and the neck area first.

After the face and neck are done, it is time to concentrate on the rest of the body. Before continuing with the fake suntan process, take a bath with some body scrub to exfoliate the skin and shave of any body hair that can be seen. When that is done, the self tanner can then be applied on all the other body parts that are to be tanned.

For the people who do not like to use manufactured products, there is still a way to get the fake suntan with natural products. The most popular way would be to boil some tea with some sesame oil inside. Once the concoction is fully boiled and hot, it can be applied on the body. Because of the natural darkening effects of tea, the body will be able to absorb the contents and eventually gain a darker tone.

No matter what method one would use in order to get a fake suntan, sometimes she can make a mistake. If her tan is not enough, she can just repeat the process that she used a while ago. If it is too dark, then she can just apply some toothpaste or some lotion on her skin so that the color will be reduced after some time.

So basically, those are some ways on how to get a fake suntan. Getting a fake suntan is definitely better than frying under the sun because the latter may actually cause skin cancer. So if one would want to avoid getting skin cancer, then do not stay out in the sun for too long.
