Steps

Method 1 of 4: Make skin tanned naturally

1. 

   
   
   Choose a cream or oil with a low SPF. To get tanned skin quickly, you'll need to apply a cream or oil with a low SPF while ensuring your skin is protected from the effects of strong sun rays. You can choose from creams, aerosol sprays, oils, and mist sprays with SPF.
   • Ideally, you should choose products with an SPF of 4 to 15 depending on the ability of your skin to sun exposure. If you already have relatively tanned skin, you can choose a product with a lower SPF. If this is your first sun exposure in the summer, choose a product with SPF 15 to avoid sunburn.
   • For even tanned skin, choose a spray or oil product. Since these two products have a watery texture, they will be applied evenly to the skin. You should still apply the product to your skin with your hands after using the spray.
   • The popular sunscreen creams and sprays from brands like Biore, Sunplay, and Rohto are mostly sold in cosmetic stores or supermarkets.
   • Use a lip balm with at least SPF 15 to keep your lips from getting sunburned. Besides, letting the lips dry and flaky is not only less attractive but also very painful.

2. 

   
   
   Apply natural oils to pre-tanned skin. If you don't want to use commercial products and you already have relatively tanned skin, there are many natural oils that help your skin catch the sun better and give you radiant skin. Use oils that increase your tan before going out in the sun and wash off with soap and water when you're finished. Some natural products include:
   • Olive oil
   • Coconut oil
   • Hazelnut oil
   • Avocado oil
   • Barley germ oil
   • Sunflower oil
   • Sesame oil
   • Green tea essence

3. 

   
   
   Rotate your body often. As with roasting chicken, you will need to rotate your body regularly for even tanned skin. The important rule to remember is to turn a quarter of a turn every half hour. Start to expose the back, then the left side, followed by the abdomen and finally the right body. Remember to change the position of the arms and legs often to avoid leaving unattractive streaks.

4. 

   Get in the sun directly. When the sun shifts its position, you will move the towel or chair so that you can always expose it to the direct sun. If you don't want to lie in the sun all day, you can also do some outdoor activities, just choose a “fabric-saving” outfit to expose your skin to as much sunlight as possible.

5. 

   Sunbathe in the middle of the day between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Although dermatologists often recommend avoiding the sun at its peak, if you want to get tanned skin quickly, you should sunbathe when the sun is at its strongest.

6. 

   Dont wear clothes. If you want an even tanned skin color, you have no choice but to wear clothes and dry in the sun. In Western countries, you can go to nude beaches or choose a private area in your backyard to bask in the sun. However, this is not culturally appropriate in Vietnam, so you should avoid it.

7. 

   Use a washcloth or reflective pad to concentrate sunlight. This method has been used for a long time and has been forgotten, but it really expands and focuses the sun on the body. There are many reflective products on the market that help the body catch the sun. You can lie in the sun on a reflective towel or buy a reflective sunscreen. Apply sunscreen on your waist and tilt it about 45 degrees until sunlight shines on your body.

8. 

   Lying in the sun in the water. Because water receives and reflects sunlight, lying on or near the water will help the body receive more sunlight. Have some tools to help you float in the water, lie on a long float, or sit on other types of buoys above the water to dry in the sun.

9. 

   Apply more sunscreen and / or oil every two hours or after exposure to water. Make sure your body is protected by an oil product or cream with a low SPF. Even if you use waterproof products, you should still be reapplied safely.

10. 

    Apply a good aloe extract moisturizer or lotion after sun exposure. You should hydrate your skin and keep it tanned after drying by applying moisturizer. advertisement

Method 2 of 4: Apply skin dye cream

1. 

   Learn about skin dyeing cream products. The skin dye cream contains the compound dihydroxyacetone (DHA), certified by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to add pigmentation to the skin. It is a 3-carbon sugar molecule that reacts with groups of amino acids in proteins in the skin. When these molecules react, a reaction called Maillard is produced, similar to the one used in browning bread and caramel.

2. 

   Select the product. Skin dyeing products come in creams, lotions, gels, foams, sprays, and oils. Many cosmetic brands such as Neutrogena, L’Oreal, Jergens, Aveeno, Bath & Body Works, Banana Boat, Clarins and Lorac all produce skin dyes that are highly rated by beauty magazines and websites.
   • According to the instructions for use, you will apply a cream or spray the product evenly on the skin, taking care to cover the entire skin.
   • Choose products that don't squash your skin to avoid clogging your pores.

3. 

   Wear gloves. Since you will apply cream to the entire body by hand, your hands will absorb more cream or oil than the rest of your body. Buy disposable medical gloves and wear them when applying skin dye to avoid darkening your hands than other areas of your skin.
   • Throw gloves away after use and use new gloves each time skin dyeing product is applied.
   • Remember to apply a little cream or oil on your hands after applying all over your body. You will still make your hands evenly colored with the rest of your body, just avoid darkening your hands.

4. 

   Apply the product evenly. One of the biggest challenges when using a skin dye is to apply it evenly over the entire body. You will need a friend's help to apply the cream to hard to reach areas like the middle of your back to avoid uneven, patchy skin streaks.
   • Use your hands to apply the dyeing cream in a circular motion so that the lines won't appear on the skin.
   • Do it slowly. Don't be in a hurry to apply the dye or you will have areas of discolored skin or miss certain areas. Take the time to apply the product evenly.
   • Don't forget to apply the product to hard-to-see areas, including underarms.

5. 

   Apply a skin dyeing cream every day until your skin color is desired. Apply once in the morning is enough to get your skin the color you want, but you can apply once in the morning and once in the evening to speed the process. Note that leather dyed products can contaminate clothes and bedding. advertisement

Method 3 of 4: Use a skin dye spray

1. 

   Learn about the product. Similar to skin dye, a spray containing the sugar 3-carbon dihydroxyacetone (DHA) reacts with amino acids to add color to the skin. Skin-dyeing sprays are usually more concentrated, but may take 1-3 coats to get the desired tan.

2. 

   Select the product. Experts recommend choosing a low DHA skin dye so you can slowly add more color. You can always darken the skin, but once sprayed, it is impossible to return to the original skin condition.
   • In addition, choose products that contain erythrulose, a sugar compound found in raspberries. This compound will keep tanned skin color longer and help keep skin shiny and healthy.
   • If possible, choose products with a little green pigment. The green pigment will help balance the amount of orange caused by the spray products.

3. 

   Determine how many coats of dye product you need to spray. For white skinned people, a single spray of skin dyeing product is enough to create eye-catching brown skin. For people with tan or dark skin, several coats will be required. You will start slowly and add color gradually until the skin is the desired color. The most important thing to remember when using skin dye sprays is not to overdo it. You cannot attract others with skin that looks fake and is orange.

4. 

   Exfoliate the skin before using the spray. You need to remove all rough dead skin on the surface of your body before spraying the product. Choose an oil-free scrub that contains hard round particles or small seeds to make skin shiny. Use a loofah or a towel when taking a bath to exfoliate your skin.

5. 

   Visit a salon that has a leather dyeing service or invite a mechanic to your home. Unlike when using skin dyeing cream, you will need a skilled worker to apply the product to your whole body. You can go to a salon that has a dye sprayer or hire a mechanic to come home to spray it in the bathroom. However, the first option will be more economical.

6. 

   Replenish your skin after a week or two. Depending on the product's adhesion to the color of the product and your original skin tone, the spray will stay on skin for 5 to 10 days. Apply moisturizer to your skin every day to keep your skin tone longer. To keep your skin shiny, try repeating it once you see it begin to fade. advertisement

Method 4 of 4: Use a tanning bed

1. 

   Learn how tanning beds work. Leather dyeing beds use ultraviolet (UV) light bulbs that emit UV radiation similar to the sun. However, tanning beds are believed to increase the risk of skin cancer. Therefore, dermatologists recommend against using this device. But if you want tanned skin right away, this is the fastest and most effective way.

2. 

   Wear goggles. Wearing goggles designed specifically for the use of tanning beds is extremely important. You can buy or rent a salon that has a tanning service.

3. 

   Avoid using dyes that accelerate the dyeing process of tyrosine. Tyrosine is an amino acid that the body uses to produce melanin, a chemical that makes skin darker. However, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not certify tyrosine and has no proof of its true effectiveness.

4. 

   Choose a time to dye your skin. If this is your first time to dye your skin, start with as little as 8 minutes. Others usually dye their skin with a tanning bed in about 8 to 20 minutes but the average time is about 12 minutes. If you have fair skin, you should dye your skin in a shorter amount of time than someone with darker skin and / or skin that already has a tan.
   • Take off all your clothes and get into bed dyed. Close the lid of the bed dyed the skin like a shell. Find the button to turn on the dye light.
   • The light is designed with a timer so it will turn off automatically when the time is up. You should step into your tanning bed as soon as the timer starts.
