How to prevent skin from peeling fom a Tanned Skin
-
May I know any ways to prevent skin peeling after a good tan?
I always experience Skin Peeling no matter what types of suntanning oil with SPF* I used
Any advice? -
don't over-tan
mosturise after.. aloe vera -
I am using Banana Boat Golden Tanning Blend SPF0. I observed a lady who is very well tanned is using Banana Boat SPF 2 Suntanning oil but she can maintain her skin tanness leh?
I applied Banana boat Aloe Vera Gel after each tanning but my skin (those behind my shoulder) will tan to peel as they looked very dry after a shower? -
Yup, apply lots of moisturizer. best is with aloe based.Originally posted by sillyme:don't over-tan

and try not to wear the top as much as possible, your shoulders will be rubbed too much with your top. -
also.. when you dry yourself after shower, tap dry.. don't rub..

just share with you my experience.... you need to reapply your suntan lotion every 30 mins... you can like just apply SPF 4 and you stay under the sun up to 4 hours and expect it to protect you... you must know that you also will sweat and the lotion is" roll" down your body. I used Banana Boat too dark tanning oil SPF4... and after suntanning, the best is to use some moisturer and medicated powder. It will peel off, but not like that big patches of skin fall off... only a little....Originally posted by bus:

In this case, REGARDLESS of what types of Suntanning oil I am using (Comes with SPF whatever)... I MUST reapply every 1/2 hours??
Must I flip/turn over my body every 1/2 hours as well as it might be too hot if I tan on one side of my body for say 1 to 1.5 hours?? Will this also leads to the peeling of the skin? -
but when there is signs of peeling then u better let it peel or rub it with light body cream... because no matter what ... it will still peel

for me, I suntan my front and my back the equal amount of time... i tan 1 hr each side.. initially it's 30 mins on my back, then 30 mins of my front, then back again... then front again.... when it's espcially sunny, then you better apply more suntan oil. BTW, how do you apply the oil? i mean do you spray onto your hands then you rub onto your body or you spray directly onto your body and rub with your hands?Originally posted by bus:

of cos lah...but if you know the proper way to suntan, normally it will not peel of cos' you're skin are not burned... even if it does peel, only small amount not like those whole back or shoulders....Originally posted by lushpies:but when there is signs of peeling then u better let it peel or rub it with light body cream... because no matter what ... it will still peel

You moisturizer when your skin is damp. LIke just after a shower or something. When your skin is wet/damp, it makes it easier for the moisturiser to be absorbed.

I spray the Banana Boat SPF 0 directly onto my body & used my hand to rub/spread evenly thru out my body. Is there any difference in the way the Suntanning oil is used??
Currently, I am using Banana Boat Aloe Vera Gel (light Green in Colour -- very nice in colour) to apply on my so called burned skin.
Which types of Suntanning oil do U all recommend? I have seen Banana Boat SPF 2, 4 etc etc.... so many types to choose from. -
from what i know SPF 0 doesn't provide any sun protection... for sure it will make your skin peel off... how i apply is i will spray a little of my body, say i spray a little on my hand area A and then i will rub it thoroughly and then i spray a little at the other part of my hand area B and rub it.... you spray bit by bit on your body until your whole body is covered with the oil... don't spray a little and rub all over your body. and when you're reapplying, make sure you do the same too. I know that when reapplying, you will tend to apply less cos' your whole body is so oily then and you think that it's not necessary to apply so much...
there are so many suntan lotion on sale... you decide what kind of effects you want.. you want a dark tanning or brown tanning or just to keep yourself protected under the sun... the lower SPF means it gives you less protection under then sun... for dark tanning SPF 2 or 4... oil is better than those lotion... btw, there are also some that are waterproof suntan oil on the market... can give a try if you want...Originally posted by bus:

I am thinking of getting the Banana Boat Deep Tannig oil SPF 2 OR the Banana Boat Water Proof Tanning oil SPF4.
Anyone using the above mentioned products currently & would like to share his/her opinions? -

Build up the tan slowly instead of doing a full day burn. Tan gradually over several sessions to avoid too much burning and peeling.

I observed that some people can maintain the tanness after 1 good tanning session. Just wondering how they did it?
Is those self-tanning cream/oil which claimed to be able to give U that tanned looks effective?
Care to share? -
yeah, that's a good idea too... you have to make many trips to the beach loh....Originally posted by choco B:Build up the tan slowly instead of doing a full day burn. Tan gradually over several sessions to avoid too much burning and peeling.

i think those ppl are those that are dark by nature... some ppl are like that they can retain their tanness for a long time.. whereas some ppl no matter how much they tanned, they'll eventually regain their fairness after some time...Originally posted by bus:
