Being in the sun is beneficial and indispensable when it comes to your health, but sun exposure in moderation is fundamental to avoiding the negative effects the sun can cause for our skin, such as premature aging, allergies or cancer. Getting a good tan can be complicated for people who are sensitive to the sun with very light skin or a history of skin cancer. These people need more time than others to get tan, since they cannot be in the sun too much each day and must always do so with protection like sunscreen. It is also common for many people to spend their summer days at the beach, looking to burn the white from their skin for that good tan they can show of in a bikini or swimsuit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For these people, there is a product that artificially tans your skin. Since the first self-tanners came out on the market, the formula has improved greatly, and the result can be great if you do it right.

In this way, rather than a melanin-forming process, self-tanner is a type of makeup that tints the superficial layers of skin thanks to the chemical process. It is completely safe for everyone, but we should remember that, unless it is explicitly stated on the product, self-tanner is not a form of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/the-best-dermatologists-in-barcelona\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>sun protection<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

For example, exfoliating your skin before application, using the product on clean and dry skin, and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/beauty\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>shaving<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> before, not after, application. Try to avoid using other creams when applying the self-tanner and be careful with elbows, ankles and knees since they are areas where the self-tanner will appear more intensely. Also be sure to wash your hands thoroughly after each application. These are just some pieces of advice for achieving a beautiful, shining color with self-tanner. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Related article: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/buy-makeup-las-ramblas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Where to buy makeup on Las Ramblas<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_best_self-tanners\"><\/span>The best self-tanners<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_96699\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-96699\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-96699\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/cosmetics-2116386_1280-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-96699\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo via Pixabay<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are an infinite number of self-tanners on the market, some for economic prices and others that are more costly. Sometimes the most expensive options are not always the best, since you are often paying more for the brand than for quality results. One of the most well-known brands with some of the better results are self-tanners from <\/span><b>St. Tropez<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This brand offers self-tanner in multiple textures; cream, oil or mousse, some of which offer instant results and others which are more progressive. Their prices are also fairly reasonable. Another brand that is slightly more expensive but that specializes in cosmetic self-tanners is <\/span><b>Vita Liberata<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and is said to be the go-to for celebrities. Its wide range of self-tanners offers solutions for all skin types. Along with the textures previously mentioned, <\/span><b>Vita Liberata <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">has flattering tanning powders as well. Lastly, we present you with <\/span><span class=\"removed_link\" title=\"https:\/\/www.mifarma.es\/roc-minesol-espuma-autobronceadora-125ml\"><b>Roc Minesol espuma autobronceadora<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a well-priced pharmacy lotion with excellent results.
