Does Exfoliating Before Tanning Matter?
Yes! Yes! Yes! If ever in doubt, just exfoliate as there is never a time it will make your tan look worse. By adding an additional small step into your tanning routine you could improve the appearance, duration and feel of the tan on your skin.
What Does It Actually Mean ‘To Exfoliate’?
Exfoliate: ‘To wash or rub with a granular substance to remove dead skin cells’.
Over time dead skin cells build up making your skin appear rough and dry. These can easily be removed by simply lathering your body with Rose and Caramel Purity Excel (focusing on areas where stubborn tan has grouped), let sit for 60 seconds and buff off with a pair of exfoliating gloves in the shower/bath. By exfoliating the fresh, healthy skin underneath is revealed causing a radiant complexion ready for a fresh layer of tan.
Why Is Exfoliating a Key Step To Your Self Tan Routine?
Whether it's your first time tanning or you never go a day without having fake tan on, exfoliating is a must before applying a layer of self tan. It reduces the risk of an uneven, streaky tan as it eliminates the dead skin cells it would have otherwise clung to. By taking the short time to exfoliate before it provides a smooth, clean canvas for the tan to glide onto.
Want Your Tan To Last Longer?
Believe it or not, exfoliating also helps your tan last longer. Our dead skin cells naturally shed causing tan on unexfoliated skin to turn patchy. Exfoliating causes the skin to be in the same condition all around meaning tan fades evenly leaving a long lasting natural look.
