There has always been so much confusion clouding the best way to treat your skin before applying your gorgeous best vegan self-tanners! Exfoliate? Wash? Shave? What is the real answer! Well, today we are taking the worry and the confusion out of the situation and telling you the exact way to go about your self-tanning routine to ensure the best possible results. The first step, simple: have your Zuii Organic Self Tan Foam in hand.
STEP ONE: LET’S GET SHAVING
That’s right, the key to a worry-free tan application is to wax or shave! Be sure that you take care of this with miles of time before you self tan! We recommend waxing or shaving at least 48 hours prior to tanning – this gives more than enough time for the pores to close before application begins!
STEP TWO: EXFOLIATE EXFOLIATE EXFOLIATE
Shaving is one thing, but you need to follow up and be sure that your skin is as smooth and soft possible – and make sure that any hidden dirt or dead skin cells are rid from the body. To do this, all you need to do is exfoliate and moisturise your skin 24 before tan application! We recommend using our Zuii Organic Exfoliating Mitt, which has been designed specifically to polish away these dead skin cells, while boosting collagen production and encouraging circulation to reduce cellulite and ingrown hairs. For full exfoliation, you can even utilise the Zuii Organic Hydrating Body Polish! IMPORTANT INFORMATION: pay attention to your elbows, knees, ankles or any personal problematic dry areas of the skin while at this stage!
STEP THREE: NO BODY PRODUCTS FOR 24 HOURS
Yep, you read that correctly. At this point, it is critical that you do not go adding anything to your body – you just need to let it settle and relax before application. This means avoid using bar soaps, oil based products or any in-shower moisturisers for 24 hours before tan application!
Trust us, this is important.
STEP FOUR: CLEAN AND DRY
You’re nearly there, you’re about to be looking like a bronzed goddess! But, before you apply please be sure that your skin is clean and dry! Ensure this is the case, and your tan results will be even better than you’re anticipating!
STEP FIVE: YIPPEE IT’S TIME TO APPLY
IT’S THE TIME YOU’VE BEEN WAITING FOR! You can finally apply your Zuii Organic Self Tan Foam – YAY! Pump some of this beautiful foam onto your Zuii Organic Tan Application Mitt, and start applying from the leg up. Don’t be scared, this foam is magical! You are going to have no streaks, no nasty scents, no orange finishes – just pure, Zuii Organic perfection on your skin. Go crazy!
STEP SIX: TIME TO RELAX
Foam is now on your body, and you can relax. This foam is best left to develop for approximately 4-8 hours, allowing the best development. But please note: the specific time you this foam on for is completely up to you. A real benefit at this point is the Zuii Organic Self Tan foam is a no-transfer formula. This means you can go lay on your beautiful WHITE linen bed sheets, and not worry about any transfer! Go put a movie on, get in bed and relax while your tan develops.
STEP SEVEN: SHOWER, SHOWER SMELL LIKE A FLOWER
4-8 hours has passed, so that means it’s time to jump in the shower and was this foam off! Preferably, go for a cold-lukewarm water temperature to ensure no damage is done to the tan development and also do not scrub or use any body products at this moment. Just let the foam come off naturally, and you will be glowing!
STEP EIGHT: ENJOY IT
Now, you’re a beautiful glowing goddess! Your tan is shining, you’re looking incredible – it’s time to go out and live life!
