Tips on prolonging a tan

[MuckyAnthea]

Am not sure if this is the right place...
But looking for top tips on how to maintain a tan. Just got back from holiday, am all tanned up, trying to keep as moisturised as poss, but just know within the next few days I will either peel or just fade away.
Can anyone enlighten me with tips on how to keep looking tanned and healthy looking?

Thanks in advance

Moisturise, moisturise, moisturise! Using an after-sun or tan-prolonging moisturiser. Also wear pale blue/pale turquoise/pale pink - all good colours for ebhancing a tan.

Lucky you

As already said - moisturise.

As your tan fades ypu could use a moisuriser with a hint of fake tan a couple of times a week - I love the L'oreal nutrishimmer for face and the body one. Lots of people swear by the Johnsons holiday skin.

For the face you could also use a bronzing powder.

Once you have developed a tan it comes back very easily so sit out for the odd hour or two weather permitting.

Johnsons holiday skin every other day

thanks all for your advise!
I think I made a mistake by using the sauna after going to the gym, loads of water bubbles have appeared on my arms which are going to result in peelage I just know it.
Am slapping on E45 cream as I type. Hopefully I shan't shed my brown skin for at least another 5 hours.
I like the johnsons holiday skin idea, I shall follow that tip as well as moisturise.

you don't need to moisturise as well as 'johnsons' as it is a moisturiser...nice and easy.
