The Benefits of Fake Tan

At Nakin we love all things natural but if there is one fake thing that we do like, it is fake tan, and these days there are so many natural product options to choose from. There are many benefits to fake tanning, including the fact that it can help you achieve a golden glow without having to spend time in the sun.

Our range of natural face products can all be used with fake tan, and we recommend them to enhance the application of your fake tan on your face. Our cleansers help to provide a clear and even base for your tan, which is important to avoid streaky patches. Our treatments and moisturisers then provide an excellent hydration system which allows the tan product to glide on smoothly, or they make wonderful products to mix with fake tan drops.

The Benefits of Fake Tan

There are lots of benefits of using fake tan. It's not so much that fake tan has actual benefits to skin from the ingredients used, it is more the benefits that we receive from using a fake tan, and having a sun-kissed glow all year round. It could also be really subtle, just enough to perk your skin up. At Nakin we tend to prefer fake tan to foundation, as we believe that our skin is more free to breathe and function. Fake tan can also be a great way to even out your skin tone if you have any blemishes or discoloration.

Another benefit of fake tan is that it can help to hide stretch marks or cellulite. If you have any imperfections on your skin that you would like to cover up, fake tan can be a great option. Finally, fake tan can also help to boost your confidence. If you feel good about your appearance, this can lead to increased self-esteem and a positive outlook on life.

When it comes to faking a sun-kissed glow, there's no product more popular than fake tan. But while we all love the look of bronzed skin, applying fake tan can sometimes be a bit of a nightmare. If you're not careful, it's easy to end up with streaks, patches and an overall uneven finish. 

So how do you apply fake tan like a pro? Here are our top tips below, although always follow the product instructions.

1. Exfoliate before you start. or if preferred the night before. This will help to create a smooth, even canvas for your tan.
2. Ensure skin is cleansed and moisturised before application, which will help ensure an even distribution.
3. Use fingers, a tanning mitt or gloves to apply the product. This will help to avoid any streaks or patches.
4. Less is often more, and a subtle look can appear fresh and natural.
5. Start from the bottom and work your way up. This will help to avoid any missed spots.
6. Use a small amount of product at first. You can always add more if you need to.
7. Blend it into the skin really well. Make sure you take the time to properly apply the product into your skin for a natural-looking finish.
8. Allow the tan to develop for the recommended time before getting dressed. It’s a good idea to apply straight out of the shower and once dry, then it can develop while doing your hair and beauty tasks.
9. Moisturise regularly after applying fake tan to help it last longer.

Follow these tips and you'll be rocking a gorgeous, fake tan in no time. One of the great things about fake tan is that it can give our complexion a lovely boost.
