GET YOUR ECLIPSE GLOW: UV TANNING

 Wearing eye protection while tanning is vital to prevent UV damage that can lead to cataracts or other eye issues. UV-blocking goggles or sunglasses protect the delicate eye area, reducing the risk of both short-term and long-term harm. 

 Moisturizing while tanning is essential to keep the skin hydrated and prevent dryness, which can lead to patchy or uneven tanning. Using a good moisturizer before and after bed exposure helps maintain a smooth, soft texture and supports a longer-lasting tan. It's important to choose a moisturizer that doesn't contain ingredients like alcohol, which can dry out the skin further. 

 Tanning accessories, such as tanning lotions, oils, and sprays, help enhance the tanning process by providing hydration, promoting an even tan, and protecting the skin from sun damage. Other accessories like tanning mitts or applicators ensure a smooth, streak-free application of self-tanner.

 A tanning plan is crucial for achieving an even, long-lasting tan while minimizing the risk of sunburn or skin damage. By gradually increasing sun exposure and incorporating proper skincare you can enhance your tan's results and maintain skin health. A thoughtful tanning plan also helps avoid overexposure.

 Exfoliating before tanning helps remove dead skin cells, creating a smooth, even surface for the tanning product to adhere to. This process ensures a more consistent and longer-lasting tan while preventing streaks and patchiness. 

 To maintain a tan, it's typically best to tan 2-3 times a week, depending on your skin type and the intensity of the tan. Regular maintenance through gradual exposure or using self-tanning products can help keep the color without overexposing the skin to harmful UV rays.
