Top Tips for Maximising a Healthy Tan During Autumn

As the days grow shorter and the cool breeze of autumn sets in, keeping that summer glow might seem like a challenge. But just because the sun isn't shining as bright doesn't mean you have to say goodbye to your tan! With the right approach, you can maintain and even enhance your healthy tan during the autumn months. Whether you struggle to tan or you’re looking to perfect your bronze glow, here are our top tips to help you maximise your tan this season.

Exfoliate Regularly for a Smooth Base

The key to a lasting tan starts with a fresh, smooth base. By gently exfoliating your skin once or twice a week, you can remove the build-up of dead skin cells and allow your tanning enhancer to work its magic.

Pro Tip: Use a natural exfoliator that won’t irritate your skin, like a sugar scrub or a gentle exfoliating mitt. Always moisturize after exfoliating to lock in hydration and create the perfect canvas for your tanning enhancer, Sweet Bronze Extreme Cream is perfect for locking in moisture and hydration.

Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate!

As the weather cools down, the drop in humidity can lead to dry skin, which can cause your tan to fade faster. Keeping your skin hydrated is essential for maintaining a healthy, glowing tan.

Use a Tanning Enhancer to Maintain Your Glow

If you’ve struggled to tan naturally or want to extend your summer glow, now’s the perfect time to incorporate a tanning enhancer into your routine. Tanning enhancers help amplify your skin’s natural tanning process, giving you a deeper, longer-lasting bronze without prolonged sun exposure. 

Our specially formulated tanning enhancers are perfect for autumn, providing a flawless tan that looks natural while nourishing your skin. They’re designed to help people who may find it difficult to tan, allowing everyone to achieve a golden glow, even as the seasons change. 

Extend Your Tan with Skin-Friendly Oils

Incorporating our specially formulated gels and creams into your post-shower routine is a perfect way to keep your tan looking radiant. These products are designed to not only add a beautiful glow to your skin but also lock in essential moisture, which is crucial for preserving your tan.

Massage a small amount of our gel or cream into damp skin right after you shower to seal in hydration and enhance the sheen of your tan. This step is particularly beneficial for fair-skinned individuals who want to maximise their tanning efforts and maintain a healthy glow.

Stay Active to Boost Circulation

Believe it or not, staying active can actually improve the appearance of your tan. Exercise increases blood flow and boosts skin cell turnover, which keeps your skin looking healthy and radiant. Regular workouts, even if it’s a brisk walk or light stretching, can help your skin maintain its elasticity and glow, making your tan appear fresher for longer.

Focus on Tan-Friendly Foods

Did you know that your diet can also help you maintain a glowing tan? Eating foods rich in beta-carotene, such as carrots, sweet potatoes, and leafy greens, can give your skin a natural, healthy tint. These foods help stimulate melanin production, which deepens your tan and keeps it looking vibrant.

Pair these with foods high in antioxidants, like berries and nuts, to support skin health from the inside out. Your skin will thank you!

Treat Yourself to an Autumn Glow Routine

Just because it’s autumn doesn’t mean you can’t pamper yourself with a mini-tanning routine! Set aside some time once a week to exfoliate, moisturise, and apply your tanning enhancer. This keeps your tan looking fresh and ensures your skin remains soft and hydrated as the weather cools down.

By following these top tips, you can enjoy a glowing, healthy tan throughout autumn. With the right combination of skincare, hydration, and tanning products, your skin will look flawless long after the summer sun has set. For those who struggle to tan naturally, our tanning enhancers are the perfect way to maintain your golden glow as the seasons change.

Stay radiant, stay golden, and embrace the autumn glow!
