Tanning

In recent years, the fashion for tanning the skin has spread among girls, especially turning it into a bronze-colored complexion, and many girls have tended to be exposed to the sun for long periods with the application of a dedicated cream, or neglect to apply the appropriate sun cream to achieve this goal, but this may cause many negative effects on Skin, so we will provide a set of healthy and safe ways to tan.


How to tan

Diet

Changing your diet is one of the most natural ways that may darken the skin by eating a high amount of foods that contain tomatoes, carrots, and vegetable juice, as this helps protect the freshness of the skin and its nutrition.


The tea method

  • Put three tea bags inside a deep bowl.
  • Pour boiling water over the tea bags and leave it for a period not exceeding ten minutes, to be discarded later from the water.
  • Take a quarter cup of tea boiled, and mix it with inulin, and a quarter cup of sesame oil, and whisk them together in a blender.
  • Add the rest of the tea infusion gradually during whipping.
  • Massage the areas you want to tan with circular motions, and wait ten minutes before cleaning the place.


Cocoa method

  • Mix a quarter cup of cocoa powder with white lanolin.
  • Apply the mixture to the skin, the desired areas for tanning, and wait until the skin absorbs it.


Vaseline method

Vaseline can be used for tanning by mixing Vaseline in equal quantities with saffron and olive oil, and applying the mixture to the desired place by tanning it, and the process is repeated on a daily basis until the desired color is obtained.


Carrot method

Carrots are used for tanning the skin after mixing drops of carrot juice with drops of olive oil, and the more carrot juice added to olive oil, the more this contributes to making the skin color darker.


Tanning oils

  • Hazelnut oil.
  • Coconut Oil.
  • Avocado oil.
  • Wheat oil.
Sun flower oil.
  • Green tea extract.


Tips for those wishing to tan

  • Exposure to the sun between the hours of 8-10 in the morning, taking into account the application of sunscreen, and in the event of exposure to the sun without a suitable condom, the stay in the sun should not exceed twenty minutes.
  • Take into account the removal of hair from places that are directly exposed to the sun, to protect the skin from the appearance of light-colored spots when removing hair later.
  • Dead skin and cells must be removed before exposure to the sun through a sanding process.
  • Avoid using perfumes directly on the skin as they leave more dark spots than necessary after exposure to the sun.
