Using Tan Towels To Create A Streak Free Glow

By Haywood Hunter


Tan towels are one of a number of self-tanning products that are used in place of tanning beds and sun bathing. They are easy to apply, far less expensive than spray or tanning beds. They are also much less messy than lotions and are less likely to cause lines or streaks in your tan.

Self-tanning products come in many forms, including tan towels. A lot of people like to use lotion and will apply it at home. However, lotion that is applied unequally can leave strips of dark and light color. It is not easy to apply equally, especially on your back. Swiping tan towels on your body is much easier to apply in hard to reach spots and in areas that you have a hard time seeing.

Another problem with lotions is that they can be very messy. They go on wet and you have to rub them in and wait for them to dry before sitting on furniture or it may stain. Also, some of it will always be wasted because you cannot get it out of the bottle. Tan towels avoid a lot of these problems because the correct amount is already on the towel. Just remember to apply it to your face last and to always use gloves.

Spray tans are often applied in booths by professionals. These are good because there is less risk of streaks but can be very expensive. The problem is that you need to spend hundreds of dollars over the season to keep up the look because it should be redone a couple of times a month. Visiting the salon can also take time out of your busy schedule. Tan towels can be applied at home at less cost and less time.

The biggest complaint people have with self-tanning products is that they sometimes cause unsightly orange streaking. Using tan towels is the best way to self-tan without running this risk. Still, there is some preparation you need to do before you use them.

You need to start exfoliating your skin several days before you use tan towels. Using body scrub in the shower is one of the most effective ways to do this. Spend enough time to remove all the dead skin and pay extra attention to your knees and elbows because they usually have extra dead cells. Once you have dried off you should also use moisturizer to keep the skin from drying out again.

Using moisturizer is a key to promoting long term skin health. It will assist the tan towels in getting the product onto your skin more smoothly. It also keeps your skin from drying out because of the chemicals. Regularly using moisturizer will also help prevent wrinkles and keep your skin fresh and young looking.

Many self-tanning products cause ugly orange streaks; tan towels can give you a healthy glow without the lines. You have to exfoliate and apply moisturizer before you apply the product. Also, take care of your tan afterwards by moisturizing every day. Easy and affordable tan towels may be your solution to a great, all year around tan.
