People that live in countries without regular sunshine often resort to using a tanning booth throughout the year, just so they can have that healthy look all the time. Technology has come to the rescue to an industry that is having problems, owing to the rise in cases of skin cancer, with some newer techniques that pose less danger. The fastest growing artificial method is spray tanning which is generally carried out at a beauty salon. If you want to have a fake color that does not have streak marks then spraying seems to be the superior system over creams and lotions. Manufacturers, quick to join the rush, have produced home spray tanning systems. Whatever type of fake tan you intend to use as a regular method, there are a number of things that can help to make it last longer and improve the look. Cleaning the dead skin off your body is the most important step using a proprietary exfoliation scrub which can be bought from any drugstore. What you don't want is for people to recognize your tan is a fake by noticing paler patches of skin where the dead skin cells have dropped from your body. To complete this part of the preparation, the skin needs to be moist and ready to accept the tan so a good skin moisturizer will need to be applied all over. One of the biggest mistakes people make at this stage when applying a bronzer from a bottle or cream application is to forget to wear gloves, this leaves them with orange palms which is hard to disguise. To avoid any other application mistakes that could give away the fact that the tan is not real, make sure those fingers, feet, elbows and knees are only given the lightest of coats as they have a habit of coming out darker. Even spray tanning can cause the odd problem if there is an excess and it starts to run so take a towel you no longer want with you to wipe it off. Always stay as still as possible after artificial tanning to allow time for the application to settle down and create an even coating. Remember that these agents aren't prejudiced and will tan clothes just as well as they do your skin, so be careful when choosing what you wear afterwards. If possible always choose clothing that is darker and preferably something that is old and won't matter if a stain is left on it. With a little care there is no reason why you cannot have a golden brown skin color throughout the year whilst keeping the method you use a secret, if you just take note of the information provided here.
