Self Tanners Vs. Tanning Salons

Self tanning products allow you the freedom to apply ...
... the creams and lotions at the place and time of your choice. However, you must be careful to follow the instructions to the last word to avoid getting an uneven or undesired level of tan.

Tanning salons offer you the benefits of airbrush sprays and spray booths as well as the expertise of a professional. But they are much more expensive and it might not be viable to keep visiting spas every time you want a tan.

Precautions:

* Adequately cover sensitive parts like eyes, nose and your nails and hair to avoid contact with chemicals.
* Keep your clothes away from the tanning product to avoid possible staining.
* Beware of skin allergies.
* Wait for 24 hours before exposing yourself to the sun's rays.
