Self Tanning For Cooler Days
Lack of sun doesn't mean you have to look pale and interesting. Self tanning is a year-round activity!

In Victorian days, a tanned complexion was frowned upon. Ladies were expected to have fair skin and stay out of the sun. Over a century later, things have reversed as tanned skin is often seen as a sign of healthy outdoor living and appeals to a wide range of people. Self tanning systems mean that you can now tan at any time of the year so that you look as great in winter as you did in the summer sun.

Carry On Self Tanning

Cooler days needn't mean the end of a great tan. You might be covering up more as the temperatures drop, but you still want that healthy look, and there's always Christmas parties and nights out to consider. Self tanning is easy and safe, so you can always get the great colour you want without spending a fortune or taking up too much of your time. Getting into the habit of topping up your tan means that you need never be worried about pale skin or faded summer colour. If you're going to carry on self tanning over winter, here are a few things to remember:

·    Skin care - in the winter months, your skin is far less exposed to the sun and the elements, but colder weather, central heating and layers of clothes can do their own damage. Keep exfoliating, cleansing and moisturising your skin to keep it in good condition. Self tanning sprays and lotions work best on exfoliated skin so keeping your skin healthy will help your tan to continue to look great.

·    Stock up - in the summer months, you can't move in cosmetic stores for all the self tanning products on sale. As colder weather draws in, those shelves are cleared and replaced with other seasonal items. For that reason, it's a good idea either to stock up, or to buy your fake tan online, where the seasons don't matter. There's nothing worse than getting half way through a tan top-up only to run out, so make sure you have enough tan product in your bathroom for each application.

·    Tone down - if you've opted for a darker tan in the summer months, it might be worth considering taking it down a tone or two in the autumn and winter. There's no denying that a warm glow on the skin can look great against winter dresses and jumpers, but you don't need a full-on tan colour to achieve the look you want. Choose a more natural self tanning colour and maintain it through the winter.
