Awesome Tips To Finding The Perfect Self Tanners

If you want to achieve 'just back from the beach' look and flaunt bronze tanned skin then you need the best self tanner. Self tanners give a beautiful golden glow to your skin without subjecting you to the harmful ultraviolet rays of the Sun. However, you cannot just depend on any tanning product available in the market, as some of them can give an awkward color to your skin or make your complexion uneven or pale. You should always go with the brands like Minetan. In this article, we will help you with choosing the right self-tanner.

Here are some tips for choosing the best self tanner:

Look For Ingredients

The main purpose of sunless tanning is to avoid the harmful effects, like skin cancer and sun burns, of Sun tanning. But, remember that self tanners contain chemicals that react with the cells of the upper layer of the skin to give you a tanned look. Therefore, before buying a tanning product, you should check its ingredients. They should be safe and should cause no side effects. Some of the ingredients found in the best self tanners are DHA (Di-Hydroxyl acetone) and Tyrosine. If your skin is sensitive, you should consult your dermatologist before buying a self-tanner.

It Should Contain Moisturizers

The best self tanners come loaded with moisturizers to give you a glowing tan. Moreover, they are easy to apply and give an even color. Therefore, you should look for sunless tanning products that contain the goodness of moisturizers like Aloe Vera and botanical extracts. Such products will not only give you golden hue but also make your skin smooth and supple.

It Should Be Suitable for Your Skin Color

Especially, if you are fair-skinned, you should choose your self-tanner very carefully. It should give your skin a natural bronze glow. Avoid products that make your skin very dark; otherwise you may end up looking artificial.

It Should Be Odor Free

Some chemicals used in self-tanners have strong odors. Therefore, you should choose a product that is odorless or pleasant smelling. Else, you will find it difficult to use the product.

Try the Product before Buying

Even the best self tanner may not suit you. Therefore, before buying a product, you should ask the brand for samples. This will help you to know how effective the product is, what type of smell it has, whether it is suitable for your skin color and type, and if it has some side effects.


To make the best use of the product you choose, you should read the instructions given on its label carefully. Tanning products work best when applied on exfoliated skin. Exfoliation removes the dead skin cells and ensures uniform tanning of the skin. Also, first you should apply only a small amount of the product. It takes few hours for these products to show results and they can be re-applied depending upon what type of color you want.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
