Getting a tan in tanning beds is not fool-proof. Often people use this solution to get an even tan on their bodies. Due to the position of the body, and the UV bulbs that are in the tanning bed, you can end up with lines on the legs. This is less common in stand-up beds. To get tan lines from the tanning bed off your legs, minimize the lines or add color to them to blend it all in together. Does this Spark an idea?
Exfoliate the legs with a washcloth and body scrub. This will remove the lines from the tanning bed as it will remove dead skin cells. The skin around the lines will go back closer to their original color. Apply the body scrub to a wet washcloth while you are in the shower or bath. Rub it in circles on the area with the lines. Rinse off with warm water.
Apply body lotion that contains alpha hydroxy acids. These are responsible for fading spots and pigmentation, including tans. This will get rid of the lines by lightening the dark areas so that there are no visible lines. Apply it once per day before bed. Continue to use it until you see results.
Put sunless tanning lotion onto the light part of the lines. Apply a light layer of sunless tanning lotion on all of the light part of the lines. Take care not to put it on the darker areas. By evening out the skin tone, there will no longer be lines on your legs. Wash your hands after applying sunless tanning lotion.
Warning
- Apply sunscreen on your legs when using a lotion containing alpha hydroxy acids.
