The Right Bronzing Lotion Can Make All The Difference

What’s in a bronzing lotion? Let’s take a look at what it is and the impact it can have on your tan.

Everyone wants to change how they look a little. It could be as simple as your hairstyle or even wanting to change their skin tone. Bronzing lotions are a fantastic way to gradually add a sun-kissed glow to your daily look.

Easily notable, bronzing lotions do not require you to spend several sessions laying in a tanning bed, which will save you time and money, and you will see your effects faster. But how does it work and is it safe? Bronzers contain an active ingredient called DHA (dihydroxyacetone), and it creates a much more natural, soft, glowing look—in contrast to the often-observed, obvious “fake tan” look of spray tans. It's absolutely safe (just do not apply the lotion to your face or eyes), and it actually gives the effect of a tan to your look without the harmful UV from the sun.

How to Apply Bronzing Lotion

These lotions can be applied quickly and are usually fast-drying (you want the lotion on your skin, not your clothes!) Most lotions will also contain moisturizers, so it's easily adaptable to your regular beauty routine and will produce a gradual result that will be free of streaks and tan lines. Applying the lotion is easy; as with most lotions, you want to apply it evenly and blend it all together. The difference in application is the importance of extra attention to the collarbones, in between the fingers and toes, the ankles, the elbows, and any other sharp angles so as to make sure everything looks the same color.

Beauty Benefits

Primarily, the benefit of the bronzing lotion is to change or blend skin colors, but this comes with a host of other added benefits.

Customization: The first thing you'll notice is a huge selection of both brands and shades. There are so many options, depending on if you want a healthy glow on your natural color or a much darker shade. If you are new to bronzing lotions, experts advise that you start with lighter shades and work your way darker as you grow more comfortable with your skin tone (this will make it a more gradual shift in color and less of an obvious impact in your work and personal life). And once again, the benefit of using a lotion versus a natural tan is that you can perfectly control how dark your skin gets rather than the guesswork involved in just lying in the sun for the afternoon. Further, you can get bronzing tanning lotions that you can wear into a tanning bed to get the best of both experiences.

Contouring and coverup:

Just like with makeup, you can use color to control the appearance of facial features around the nose, mouth and cheekbones. It's recommended that you apply the lotion with a powder brush. It might be helpful to apply some to your forehead or cheeks as well to help blend the look. Bronzers can also be used to help hide blemishes, unequal pigmentation, and veins, and they can help create a more overall toned look. You already know how well this works with makeup—now apply it to your overall body with a full-body bronzing!

Tanning and bronzing lotions are an affordable alternative to natural tans, and they are arguably safer, easier, and more customizable. There's a shade for everyone!
