Diy Self Tanner

DIY self tanner is a natural and affordable way to get a sun-kissed glow. It’s easy to make and apply, and you can customize the shade to match your skin tone.

To make DIY self tanner, you’ll need:

• Unscented lotion
• Cocoa powder (optional)
• Black tea bags (optional)
• Essential oils (optional)

Instructions:

1. Combine the lotion and cocoa powder (if using) in a bowl. Stir until well blended.
2. If using black tea bags, steep them in hot water for 5-10 minutes. Let the tea cool, then add it to the lotion mixture.
3. Add a few drops of essential oils (if using) and stir to combine.
4. Apply the self tanner to your skin using a mitt or your hands. Be sure to blend it evenly and avoid getting it on your clothes.
5. Let the self tanner develop for at least 6 hours before showering or swimming.

For a darker tan, you can apply multiple layers of self tanner or use more cocoa powder. You can also use a darker shade of tea, such as English breakfast tea.

Here are some tips for applying DIY self tanner:

• Exfoliate your skin before applying self tanner to remove any dead skin cells. This will help the self tanner go on evenly and last longer.
• Apply the self tanner in a thin, even layer. Use a mitt or your hands to blend it well.
• Avoid getting the self tanner on your palms, soles of your feet, and elbows. These areas tend to be darker naturally and can become too dark if you apply self tanner to them.
• Let the self tanner develop for at least 6 hours before showering or swimming.
• To maintain your tan, reapply the self tanner every 2-3 days.

DIY self tanner is a great way to get a natural, sun-kissed glow without having to expose your skin to harmful UV rays.
