3 Ways to Use Coconut Oil to Make Your Spray Tan LAST!

                                                                                                 

If you haven’t already noticed there is tons of research coming out about the benefits of using Coconut Oil. From using it while cooking to brushing your teeth, using it on your hair… but did you know it can even help you out with your SPRAY TAN? Here is how!

Make a DIY Scrub, to use while preparing for your spray tan using COCONUT OIL! I will be posting my own special blend for my favorite scrub in my next blog, but a mix of sugar and coconut oil will do the trick. You can find tons of other recipes on Pinterest as well. Exfoliating your skin before your spray tan helps to get off all the dead skin cells so that the application is even. The Coconut Oil also works as a moisturizing treatment for your skin, and moisturized skin takes better to Spray Tan.

  

Use COCONUT OIL as a daily moisturizer before your spray tan, and after your spray tan for baby soft skin! Dry or flaky skin will fade unevenly causing your Spray Tan to look uneven, and blotchy. A little bit of Coconut Oil goes a long way when using it as a body moisturizer. Put a small bit in your hand, and gently rub all over. Moisturized skin stays tanner longer and fades the most evenly.

You can also use Coconut Oil to shave your legs. When shaving while you have a spray tan ALWAYS use a NEW razor NEVER a dull one. Also ALWAYS be sure to use something to shave with. I usually use conditioner but have been mixing in some Coconut Oil as well. It works GREAT! My skin is silky smooth, and it does not take off my golden glow.

So what are you waiting for? If you don’t already have some laying around the house be sure to pick up a jar of Coconut Oil the next time you are out. Your Brushed Artistry Spray Tan, and skin will thank you!

Sun Screens Safe for Spray Tanning

Of course, you don’t want to get sunburned. Sunscreen should be part of your daily routine when taking care of your skin, even if you do not plan on going to layout. When it comes getting color spray tanning is a safer alternative option. Be aware though that the color on your skin does NOT protect you from the sun. The LAST thing you want is a BURN under your Spray Tan! You want to make sure that you wear an SPF at all times to protect your skin and your new spray tan. Sometimes it can be VERY hard to tell that you are burning when you are rocking your spray. Since your skin is darker, it is not as easy to see so just be sure to wear the appropriate kind of SPF at ALL times.

Now like all other products that you use while wearing your spray tan the sunscreen can NOT contain alcohol or mineral oil in the ACTIVE ingredients, and preferably not highly concentrated in the Inactive Ingredients (in the first 5 listed). I have done extensive research to find which ones work the best.
