Sunless tanner question

[leahjade]

Trying to save money using sunless tanner instead of spray tans and am curious if I need to exfoliate each day if I'm using an every day moisturizing tanner like Jergen's Glow? My one friend said yes and my other said no or the tan won't accumulate if you scrub it off every day. Help!

yes you would want to exfoliate. otherwise you are tanning dead dried skin, which will absorb more color and look wierd (why you need to be careful with elbows, knees, feet etc). i would say gently exfoliate though. like if you shave your legs i think that is enough. and do it before you apply the lotion.

another tip is i used that last week for an event. areas they tell you to be careful around (like elbows, in between fingers, knees, feet) you may want to apply a light coating of a non tanning lotion, this way it absorbs less of the tanning lotion.
