Tricks for Sunless Tanning.

Tricks for Sunless Tanning.

Problem: Hi Tia. It’s time for the pool to open, and I don’t want to look pale in my suit. Do you have any tips or tricks when it comes to self tanning?

Answer: Good question, and really, it’s a great alternative to tanning in the sun.

Sun is important for Vitamin D, but the rays can be harmful with too much indulgence. Sunless tanning can be natural with the right product, and only you can determine which product and color is right for you. Trial and error may be what you have to do to find the right one; there are sprays, airbrushes, lotions and wipes to choose from.

Do a sunless tanner the day before you need a tan. It’s easy to correct any mistakes or darken your color if needed. Jumping in water after applying sunless tan, will just leave you a streaky mess and it’s not good for the pool water either. So plan accordingly.

First tip, use a separate face tanner, on the face, unless the tanning product says, full body. Body tanners can slightly dye hair, and darkening facial hair is not a goal for most.

The next tips would be, don’t shave legs before applying tanner, if possible. Exfoliating your legs and body before tanning is a good way to get a longer-lasting tan. Shaving beforehand can cause razor burn or darken pores. Shaving is best after the tan color has been achieved.

Remember, tanning can dye clothes, so be sure to wear dark colors while waiting for the color to take. Wash hands well when finished, when using a lotion or wipe. Do forget to get around jewelry, if wearing it. Color can tend to build up behind rings.

If hands have turned color or you have any darker patches, use peroxide on a cotton ball (wring out, so no drips or runs happen) and wipe the area. It will fade the color to blend within a few hours.

Need Ice for a Party

A lot of parties are coming up this month and next, for graduations, holidays or just welcoming the barbecue season. The thing most party throwers overlook until party day is ice. Sure, buying bags of ice isn’t too expensive, but it’s an expense you don’t need, with a little forethought.

Whether you use ice trays or you use an ice maker, spend your time, a couple of days prior to the party, filling up old shopping bags or gallon freezer bags with ice and storing them in the freezer for the “party cooler” is a great money saver.

Ice intended only for drinks should be stored in clean or sanitized gallon bags until they can be placed into ice buckets for the party day.

You will have plenty of ice if you prepare a few times a day, several days before the big event.

Of Course, there are many methods of relieving stress, and here is just another quick response area, to relieve stress swiftly.

Massage firmly above the breasts, yet below the collar bone, on the chest with your fists, in a circular motion. Move the radius of motion, towards the center out towards the arm pit.

Tips in Action: Deodorant Not Working.

Deodorant not working? Don’t go clinical strength, if you don’t have too. Sweat is a good thing; sweat releases toxins and other things you don’t want in the body. You may smell, but a good cleaning, should wash is away. If it doesn’t, clinical strength deodorant, isn’t going to change that, you got to change from the inside out. Stink means, fungus and/or bacteria.

To Get rid of both fungus and bacteria, vinegar will kill both.

Get gauze and soak it with vinegar and apply to armpits for 5-10 minutes. The armpit will absorb the vinegar. This will reset the balance in your armpits.

Remove Strong Glue from Skin

Remove Strong Glue from Skin

Problem: I was doing handy man stuff. I was working with contact cement and the glue won’t wash off my hands, I’m out of paint thinner. Any solutions?


Tip from Tia: Rubbing alcohol works alright, if that’s all you have. But, the best solution I can tell you is, Acetone. It is along the same lines as “paint thinner”, it is actually a paint remover, found in nail polish remover.

Pour some nail polish remover into the palm of your hand and rub the glue off. Be sure to wash hands thoroughly, after use. Repeat if necessary. Like paint thinner, the smell is strong but, it will dissipate.
