If you plan to get an indoor tan make sure you exfoliate. This is going to ensure you get the very best results from your tanning efforts. With the types of equipment out there right now, no one will ever be able to tell you didn't get that gorgeous color lying out on the beach or at the pool.

Your skin will absorb more of the UV rays when you do so. It will also help you to develop a nice base tan. When you fail to exfoliate though you end up with dry flaky skin that will come off when you shower or as you go about your day. Since this is the outer layer that is what the tan color will be on. When that skin comes off, you won't have the same glow underneath.

It is important to have a very good soap that you use to exfoliate with as well. If it doesn't contain quality ingredients then you won't get wonderful results. You want to avoid those that have fragrances with them. While they will smell nice they are also going to dry out your skin. This is the opposite effect of what you should be aiming for.

Liquid soap for exfoliating seems to be less harsh than bars of soap. Most of what you will find out there comes in either form so you can choose what you want. You want to scrub your skin while you exfoliate with a loofa or a wash rag very well. This way you can remove all of the dry and dead skin from your body.

Make sure you rinse all of the soap off your body too. Some people get into a big hurry and so some of it lingers. This can irritate your skin and result in it drying out in those areas as well. It never hurts to give your body one more rinse from top to bottom when you think you are all done just to be sure.

Pay attention to how you dry off your body as well. If you are one who quickly towels off from head to toe then you need to slow down. Pat your body dry instead of the rigorous workout. That way your skin gets the quality treatment it deserves. Make sure you drink water throughout the day so your skin will glow when you exfoliate it.

Generously apply a good lotion with moisturizers in it to you skin. This will help to lock in the moisture after you have exfoliated. It will allow you to keep the benefits of it longer. You will definitely notice the different results you get when you use indoor tanning products and equipment.

Don't underestimate how powerful exfoliating is when it comes to indoor tanning. You want to get the most out of your efforts so why not do it right from the very beginning? You will love the way your skin feels and you will love how it looks. You will be able to offer a great tanned color that you will be very confident with. It will improve your physical appearance as well as how you feel about yourself.
