Tips for Prolonging Tan

No one likes to lose their tan in a short period of time. It is not an easy task (in fact not possible) to keep them till the last end. But surely you can maintain your tan for a longer period if you follow some steps, of which we have discussed a few below. Consider them for better results.


Pop Pills
From the market, you can get a number of pills which are helpful for maintaining your tan. These pills contain those oils which are helpful for maintaining your tan. Though these pills are helpful for maintaining, you cannot maintain your tan for long just by taking these pills alone.

Drink lots of water
For tanning you will be under the sun. This will make you lose lots of water. Keeping this in mind, have as much water as you can. This will help you maintain your tan as well as to put up with the water you lose through sweating.

Use moisturizers
Using moisturizers will not only help you keep your skin soft but it will also help you maintain your tan. Though your regular moisturizers may do this job for you but if you can apply a special after-sun cream that will be more advisable as these creams have some special ingredients which are known to soothe your skin. Experts are of the opinion that your body needs to be moisturized twice a day.

Deciding your Food
According to experts some foods are good to maintain your tan while some foods bring negative effect. So you need to avoid those kinds of foods which are not good for maintaining tan. Tyrosine is helpful to maintain your tan and so foods which include this should be taken more.

Egg whites, turkey, cottage cheese, almonds, salmon, soy, and avocados are a few major food items which are rich in Tyrosine. So take in as much as these to preserve your tan for longer periods.

Avoid using skin-stripping lotions and creams
You should withdraw yourself from using skin-stripping lotions and creams. Those lotions containing fruit acids and other acids like glycolic and salicylic acids are known to remove the top skin layer. This is why you need to avoid using them.
