tanned legs - how to tan legs?

Why my legs don’t tan as fast as the rest of my body? You ask us how to get me tanned fast and how to keep legs tanned? These are the common question that we receive every day. Today we will give you the answers! Ready? Let’s start! 

Why don’t legs tan as fast as the rest of the body? 

Let’s consider how it’s even possible that legs seem to be paler compared to the rest of the body. The answer is pretty easy. Skin on legs is thicker and harder, so it gets less UV radiation. What’s more, the legs don’t produce that much melanin, which inhibits the entire tanning process. They’re also more vulnerable to drying, which results in faster exfoliation of the outer layers of the epidermis. There is no doubt that women face the biggest problem when tanning, because they shave and wax their body and exfoliate the surface of freshly tanned skin. No wonder that the legs tan much slower than the rest of our body –and it’s all mainly due to anatomical factors. 

But don’t worry and don’t lose faith. We are here to help you. We will give you all the ins and outs and let you know what tanning lotion to choose to enjoy your chocolate tan super-fast! 

Tan legs – step by step 

Scrubs before tanning 

The first thing is removing dry epidermis is the key to success in getting fast and even tan on the legs. Be sure to use coarse-grained body peeling before every tanning session. The dead epidermis blocks UV radiation from penetrating deep into the skin, but after you remove ityour body will be silky soft and smooth. On top of thatscrubs improve blood circulation. 

Remember to moisturize!

As we mentioned, the skin on the legs is very dry. If you want to tan legs properly, keeping it moisturized before and after tanning, will help you get the desired effect. Moisturized and soft skin absorbs UV rays better and intensifies the melanin production process. 

Avoid leg hair removal 

After tanning legs, lay off the hair removal for a bitThat’s true not just for shaving but also waxing, epilation, and depilation. It is best to wait 1-2 days after your last tanning session. If you choose to remove hair from your legs, you'll also be removing the outer layers of your freshly tanned skin, and that's exactly what you want to avoid!
