Self Tanner Application Tips & Tricks

Follow These Steps to Get the Perfect Faux Tan:

1. Gently exfoliate your skin. You want a smooth surface for the
tanning agent to adhere to so the application isn’t streaky or patchy.

2. Apply a light moisturizer to ankles, wrists, elbows, knees and in between the fingers. This will ensure these naturally drier parts won't darken too much and will allow for a smoother application.

3. Set aside half an hour or more to apply the self tanner and allow it to dry. Don’t rush the application process otherwise you’ll get streaks and might miss some spots. Also, apply self tanenr in a circular motion making sure not to rub back and forth as this will cause streaks and blotchiness.

4. Tie your hair up or use a shower cap so it doesn’t stick to your skin.

5. Apply self-tanner lightly on areas where your skin is thickest (knees, elbows, knuckles, ankles).

6. Wash your hands immediately after application or save yourself the trouble and wear gloves.

Each application will last 5-7 days

I've tried practically every tanning product on the market. In many....the smell is more than I can bear. Many have turned my skin bright orange. Most only last a short time, which means you have to go through the hassle of re-applying every 2 to 3 days. Some are tinted, and stain your linens and towels. And....some are outrageously priced.
Dr. Denese's Tanning Mits solve ALL of those problems!! They give the most gorgeous golden brown color I've ever gotten from a tanning product.........or the sun!!! The smell is very slight, and not unpleasant at all! The color you receive from the mit lasts for about a week. it's colorless, so it doesn't stain your towels, linens or clothes! And the price is very fair for what you get!! I simply cannot say enough good things about the Tanning Mits, and I hope you NEVER stop making them!!! You've got a "forever" customer in me!!!

I've mastered the application.........and here's my tips on applying!!
I use surgical gloves on my hands under the mit. When I open the mit, I squeeze the excess product from the mit into a small bowl, leaving the mit damp but not saturated. Then I pour the excess from the pouch into the bowl, as well. I apply to my legs first, not using my fingertips but my full hand, using equal pressure throughout (to avoid streaking), and making sure I cover every inch of skin. Then dip the mit into the bowl and squeeze out excess.Then, using the same method, I apply on my arms, tummy and back. Dip mit into remaining product in bowl. Turn the mit inside out an apply on my face and neck. Once I've covered all of me, I remove one surgical glove and apply mit to bare hand and wrist, making sure to get between fingers and down the sides. Then I remove the other glove. using the discarded glove, I pick up the mit and apply to the 2nd bare hand and wrist. It works great, in that I have no tanning product on the palms of my hands!! If you use this method, you will have a gorgeous, long lasting tan with no st
