Before baring your legs, a golden tan makes all the difference. Self-tanners make it easy, but can you safely sunbathe with self-tanner on?
Tanning with or Without the Sun
Yes, you can sunbathe after applying self-tanner. It bonds to the outermost layer of skin (dead skin cells), while natural sun tanning occurs deeper in the skin.
No UV Protection
Important: Self-tanner does not protect against sunburn. Always apply sunscreen before sun exposure.
Avoid Direct Sun Right After
For best results, don't head straight into the sun post-application. Apply self-tanner the night before instead.
