How can I use tanning aloe vera to improve my sunbathing experience and skin health? - #22094

Claire

I am struggling with getting an even tan and honestly, like, I'm not sure about the safest way to do it without damaging my skin. So, I heard about tanning aloe vera, and I got really curious. A few weeks ago, I was at the beach for a long day and I just used regular sunscreen and coconut oil, nothing special. I ended up with some uneven patches which made me wonder if tanning aloe vera could help with that. I read somewhere that it can boost your tan while keeping your skin hydrated, but I’m not really sure how to use it effectively. Should I apply it before I go out in the sun or after?! It's all so confusing. Plus, I’m worried about how it might react with my sensitive skin. I’ve heard good things about aloe vera generally, but is using it for tanning actually a good idea? I mean, do you need to use it consistently or just on specific days? Maybe like mixed with some other oils? I don’t want to end up with dark spots or burnt areas again. Any tips on how to incorporate tanning aloe vera into my routine would be sooo appreciated. And ya know, is there a difference between the kinds you buy in stores versus the natural ones you can grow at home? I'm just trying to get a glow without damaging my skin, and I feel like I’m getting more and more lost with it all!! Help would be super helpful! Thanks!

Hi Claire, you're not alone - getting a healthy, even tan without harming your skim can be challenge, especially with sensitive skin, the alovera used in pre-sun or post- sun skin care to- hydrate and soothe the skin minimize sun burn support skin repair how to use Aloe vera for sunbathing:- 1. pre - sun care ( before going out) Use it as base layer, not a replacement of sunscreen mix natural aloe vera gel with few drops of non-comedogenic oil like carrot seed oil apply this mixture under broad spectrum sunscreen (spf 30+) it hydrates skin which prevent dry patches that leads to uneven skin tanning. 2. during sun exposure Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours avoid using coconut oil aloe- it offers very little UV protection and can clog pores 3. post sun- care Aloe vera gel (pure) is excellent right after exposure it Cools, hydrates and repair - reduces peeling and patchiness TIPS FOR SAFE AND EVEN TAN EXFOLIATE- 1-2 days before tanning to gently remove dead skin stay hydrated- bth internally as well as externally Rotate your body to prevent overexposure to on side use NATURAL,ALCOOHOL FREE ALOE VERA GEL TO AVOID SKIN IRRITATION LIMIT SUN EXPOSURE TP 30-45 MIN MAX Avoid peak sun hours thank you

Aloevera is safe to use, it protects the skin You can take aloevera juice 10ml+ amla juice 10ml twice daily after food with water For tanning you can apply extra virgin olive oil/ or coconut oil, so skin will not become dry and itchy.
