Achieving a beautiful, natural tan doesn’t have to be a hassle. With Boë’s premium self-tanning products, you can enjoy a glowing tan that enhances your natural melanin. To help you get started and avoid common mistakes, here are the top three “don’ts” for applying self-tan that will ensure a smooth, even finish.
Avoid These Common Self-Tanning Mistakes for a Stress-Free, Stunning Glow
When it comes to self-tanning, even small missteps can affect your results. Follow our simple tips to keep your tan looking fresh, natural, and long-lasting. Let’s dive into the three don’ts for a flawless self-tanning routine!
1. Don’t Apply Self-Tan on Wet or Hot Skin
For the best results, always apply self-tanner to cool, dry skin. If your skin is damp or still warm from a shower, the tanning product may not adhere properly, leading to an uneven, streaky finish. This can also cause your tan to fade faster or transfer onto clothing and sheets.
Pro Tip: Allow your skin to dry completely after a shower, and wait until you’ve cooled down if you’ve just exercised or been outside in hot weather. By applying Boë self-tanning products to dry skin, you’ll achieve a more even and long-lasting glow.
2. Don’t Wait a Full Week to Reapply
For a naturally radiant look, consistency is key. Instead of applying a large amount of self-tanner once a week, go for a gradual approach. With Boë, it’s best to build your tan with small, regular applications. This allows the product to blend seamlessly with your skin, giving you a soft, sun-kissed glow that lasts.
Our Recommendation: Apply a small amount every day or every other day. This method allows you to control the intensity of your tan, so you can keep a consistent, natural glow throughout the week—without drastic fades or color changes.
“Boë Beauté is my favorite go-to tan! I have the Starter Set II and use The No.1 Tan Drops daily with my moisturizer to maintain my glow. I also love to add a few sprays of The No.2 Tan Water for special occasions. It’s easy to fit into my routine!”
3. Don’t Overdo It
Less is more! Applying too much self-tanner at once can result in an unnatural look or an uneven tone. Start with a light layer and gradually build up your tan until you reach your desired level. This way, you’ll achieve a fresh, radiant look that perfectly complements the season.
Pro Tip: Think of it as a natural, everyday glow—like the kind you’d get from spending time outdoors. A light touch allows you to keep your tan looking soft, luxe, and natural without risking an orange or overdone appearance.
