For a flawless, even, and streak-free self-tan, the tools you use are just as crucial as the tanning products themselves. One must-have item in your self-tanning kit is the fake tanning mitt. If you’re not using one, you’re missing out on smoother application and risking stained hands or uneven results. Here’s why a tanning mitt is essential and how you can clean your tanning mitt to get the best self-tan results.
Why You Need a Tanning Mitt for Self-Tan Application
Even Coverage: One of the main benefits of using a tanning mitt, such as the Nuda Tanning Mitt, is the even coverage it provides. The mitt's soft, velvety texture ensures that the self-tan spreads uniformly across your skin, helping to avoid streaks, blotches, and patchy areas that are common when applying tanner with your hands.
Protects Your Hands: Applying self-tan without a mitt often results in orange-stained palms that can be hard to hide. A tanning mitt creates a barrier between your skin and the tanning solution, keeping your hands clean while allowing for precise application that enhances the overall look.
Streak-Free Results: Streaks are a common issue with self-tanning, but using a high-quality mitt like the Nuda Tanning Mitt can minimize this risk. Its velvety surface helps the product glide smoothly over your skin, allowing for seamless blending in circular motions and ensuring an even tan across all areas.
Gentle on the Skin: The mitt's soft texture is gentle on your skin, unlike rough materials that might cause irritation or exfoliation during application. The Nuda Tanning Mitt’s delicate touch ensures that the self-tan is absorbed comfortably, without discomfort.
Perfect for Hard-to-Reach Areas: For difficult-to-reach spots like your back, the Nuda Self Tan Back Applicator is ideal. This tool is designed to help you reach every part of your body, ensuring an even tan with its velvety surface and ergonomic handles.
How to Properly Use a Tanning Mitt for Self-Tan Application
Using a mitt for your self tan application is simple, but following the right technique ensures the best results. Here’s how to get the most out of your mitt:
Prep Your Skin: Before using the mitt, prepare your skin by exfoliating and moisturizing dry areas such as elbows, knees, and ankles. This step helps achieve a smoother application and prevents the tan from clinging to dry patches.
Apply Self Tan in Circular Motions: Place a small amount of Nuda Self Tanning Mousse on the mitt. Start from your legs and work upwards, applying the self-tan in circular motions. This method helps distribute the product evenly for a natural, uniform tan.
Use a Back Applicator for Hard-to-Reach Areas: To ensure you don’t miss spots, especially on your back, use the Nuda Self Tan Back Applicator. Apply a small amount of self-tan to the center of the applicator and use the handles to cover your back with smooth, even strokes.
Blending Tricky Areas: For areas like your hands, feet, and elbows, the Nuda Blending Brush is perfect. Its ultra-soft bristles help blend the tan seamlessly, providing a streak-free and polished finish.
How to Clean Your Tanning Mitt
Wash After Every Use: Rinse your tanning mitt thoroughly with warm water and mild soap after each application. Avoid harsh detergents to protect the mitt’s texture. Gently rub the mitt to remove self-tan residue, then rinse until the water runs clear.
Let It Air Dry: Lay the mitt flat to air dry after washing. Avoid wringing it out to maintain its shape and effectiveness. Ensure it is completely dry before storing it to prevent mildew.
Cleaning the Nuda Back Applicator and Blending Brush: Rinse the Back Applicator and Blending Brush with warm water and mild soap after use. Remove all residue, air dry thoroughly before storing.
Why Cleaning Your Tanning Mitt Matters
Regular cleaning of your tanning mitt ensures flawless application each time. It prevents streaks, extends the mitt’s lifespan, and improves the quality of your self-tan by ensuring smooth application.
