I LOVE a good sunless tanner & spray tan (FAVORITE). Sunless tanners are great for when you’re in a rush or just don’t want to leave the house or the salon has already closed & you look like Casper. Also, they’re a great moisturizer & give a really nice subtle glow. If applied right in the correct shade & by a great brand, they don’t make a big mess & can begin to look like a natural tan.
My favorites self-tanners are Jergens for face & body & St. Tropez if you want to splurge.
This being said Spray tans will always hold a dear place in my heart! Aha seriously, though, I love getting spray tans. There’s no work involved, just a little prep beforehand & after care/maintenance afterwards. I go to Zoom Tan & get level 1 clear, but if I’m feeling really pasty I get level 1 instant.
After putting in hard work at the gym a tan really helps make the muscles pop & the legs look sleeker. No joke sometimes if I don’t have time to go to the gym I’ll do a quick at home work out, shower then get a spray tan. It makes me look & feel slimmer…In my head, maybe, but it makes me feel better! Like my aunt always said: “fat looks better tan!”
Just avoid the UV tans, like stay away from tanning beds…I used to go & would break out in a rash all over my stomach. It’s just not good for you skin, but if I can’t persuade you, at least use the stand up booths. Don’t go lay in a bed where 50 other people just laid in naked & sweat out all over before you. & don’t assume whatever is in that little spray bottle used to clean the beds killed whatever was leftover…Gross!
Hopefully that persuades you…*devil emoji smiling*
Since yesterday was the first day of summer I figured I share my tips for using selfless tanner & getting spray tans to achieve that perfect summer glow:
Shower & exfoliate
Use a mit/gloves
Apply evenly
Wash hands afterwards
Wait to dry before getting dressed
Here are my tips for a spray tan:
Shower& exfoliate
Get sprayed at night & go right to bed (Max hates how the sheets smell after I get a spray tan…oops)
Wear black
Don’t wear fitted clothes
Don’t get wet afterwards
Wear protective lotion on hands & feet
Wash hands afterwards
Wait to dry before getting dressed
Wait about 8 hrs before washing off (aka go to bed after you get sprayed)
Wash off in shower don’t scrub off
Pat dry with towel don’t rub
I hope this helps & the next time you think about tanning you grab a bottle of Jergens or run to your nearest Versa Spa!
Here are my before & after with no filters!

Try it or a spray tan! If you don’t like it it will wash off.
