Luckily, there are other methods that can be used in order to get the desired result and they won’t negatively impact your health.
Rub on Tans
This is a very simple method and it doesn’t have any dangerous side effects. What you need to do is apply the tan on your skin and wait for the product to dry.
What is great about this approach is that you have absolute control over which areas of your body you want tanned. Make sure to apply a good amount in order to avoid lines or streaks.
Practice makes perfect and after a couple of applications, you should be ready to take full advantage of rub on tans.

Spray on Tans
Spray on tans are becoming very popular because compared to rub-on tans, the product dries faster. The only downside is that the application is a bit tricky and you might need to ask for help to make sure that the product is applied everywhere you want.
Specific spots in your back might be hard to reach, so having help at hand will surely pay off. Once dry you can start using skin hydration products again.
Neat, is it not?
Airbrush Spray Tans
Airbrush spray tans are generally known to be more precise than spray-on tans. The product comes with a pen-like spray which provides more accuracy. It also lasts for longer than the aforementioned methods. What is great about this, is the fact that one application of this product is equivalent to six tanning sessions without the side effects.
Regardless of what method you choose, please do a patch test 24 hours before applying the product all over your skin to reduce the risk of allergic inflammation.
An Industry Still Growing
The self-tanning industry has seen significant growth. With innovative products like rub-on, spray-on, and airbrush tans quickly becoming popular for their convenience. They are a safer approach to achieving a sun-kissed glow. As trends lean towards healthier beauty solutions, the sunless tanning market is projected to expand, driven by rising demand for products that minimise skin cancer risks and prevent UV-related skin damage.
The global self-tanning industry was valued at over £1.6 billion in recent years and continues to grow as consumers increasingly seek non-toxic, cruelty-free, and environmentally friendly options. With a variety of techniques available, from easy-to-apply lotions to professional airbrush treatments, self-tanning offers flexibility and safety, keeping it at the forefront of beauty trends focused on long-term skin health.

very nice introduction to an interesting topic. I hope this works quick, I don’t want to brown in winter to 😉
thanks for the advice, I will try that airbrush spray
Looking white is something that I personally hate. I have heard so manybad things about sunbeds that their even their good price puts me off of using them. Instead i tend to use home creams like the ones you mentioned above. I think the airbrush is the best option but somebody else has to do it on you.
