All Natural Self Tanner Brands To Invest In Now
If you have wandered around a store looking for tan lotions, you have most likely noticed that there are a lot of them. Have you ever been curious to why there isn’t more natural self tanner brands? Me too. That is because there is an ingredient in most tan lotions called dihydroxyacetone (DHA) which allows you get a tan without exposing yourself to the sun and finding a lotion with this ingredient can surprisingly be very difficult. I don’t know about you, but I am a huge fan of finding the all natural products. I believe that they’re not only good for the environment, but for my body as well.
Before we begin, let’s talk about why you should use all natural self tanner brands.
Convenience
If you have a self tanner at home, then you have it right in a cabinet or drawer in your house. When you need it or want to use it, you don’t have to walk far. You don’t have to go to a tanning salon or store to buy lotion because you have it.
Safe to Use
If you don’t want to go on the beach and lay there for hours to get tan, then having a self tanner at home is perfect. They’re also safe to use because of the ingredients that the lotion has instead of your everyday convenience store bought ones which have a bunch of terrible ingredients that are not good to be used on your skin.
They Are Easy to Apply
Yes, you read that correctly. Self tanners are easy to apply for anyone, even beginners like me. Whether it’s a liquid spray or lotion, you don’t have to wait long at all until you’re nice and tan and ready for the beach.
Brands That You Should Try
