Self-Tanning and Your Workout Routine: A Guide to Longevity

Fitness goals and sunless tan? Who says you can’t have both? Maintain the sun-kissed glow while smashing your fitness goals with the right tips and tricks! Welcome to the ultimate guide on keeping your tan flawless, even when your workout routine is anything but easy. 

 

Why Your Workout Might be Sabotaging Your Tan

You’ve spent time perfecting your sunless tan, so the last thing you want is for it to fade prematurely. Unfortunately, your workout can be one of the biggest culprits behind a disappearing tan by sweating, friction and frequent showers.

But don’t worry, you don’t have to choose between a glowing tan and a glowing body. Here’s how you can keep both:

 

Prepping Your Skin: The Foundation of a Long-Lasting Tan

Before you even think about working out, make sure your tan is ready to withstand the intensity of your routine. Proper skin preparation is key to a long-lasting tan:

 

1. Exfoliate Like a Pro:

Slough off any dead skin cells using  Dermasuri Deep Exfoliating Glove before applying your self-tanning product. This ensures a smooth, even application and helps your tan adhere better to your skin.

 

 

2. Moisturize Wisely:

Use CeraVe Ultra-Light Moisturizing Gel to keep your skin hydrated and  hold onto your self tan longer.

 

 

3. Timing is Everything: 

Apply your self-tanner at least 24 hours before your workout. This gives the color time to fully develop and settle into your skin, reducing the chances of it sweating off.

 

Tanning Hack: 

For a worry-free, flawless tan and a fresh start to your workout the next day, use Tan Fan Self Tan Sleep Sac. This sleep sac prevents your tan from staining your sheets, ensuring a good night's sleep without any mess.

Your workout doesn’t have to be your tan’s worst enemy.

 

4. Wear Loose-Fitting Clothes:

Tight workout gear can rub against your skin, causing your tan to fade unevenly. Go for loose fabrics that allow your skin to breathe and reduce friction.

 

5. Choose Your Workouts Wisely:

If your tan is fresh, consider low-impact workouts that minimize sweat and friction like yoga or Pilates, giving your tan more time to settle.
 

 

6. Keep Cool:

Sweat is inevitable, but you can minimize its effects by working out in a well-ventilated space.

 

Maintaining a flawless tan while staying fit is all about balance. By prepping your skin properly, choosing the right workouts, you can keep your tan looking its best, no matter how intense your fitness regimen gets.

So go ahead, hit the gym, and glow on! With these tips, you’ll be turning heads with both your physique and your radiant, sun-kissed skin.
