How to Avoid the Donald Trump Orange Tan?

Make-up America great again...

We all know that self-tanner can be a great ally for getting a tanned complexion without sun exposure. However, you need to know how to apply it correctly! While a natural, luminous tan is the goal, the “orange carrot” effect often associated with Donald Trump, currently in the midst of his election campaign, is something to be avoided at all costs. Luckily, a few simple tips can help you avoid this beauty faux pas.

  1. Choose the Right Product:

Forget the traditional self-tanners that leave you guessing until the (often uneven) tan appears. Opt for tinted formulas that allow you to see where you’re applying the product in real time. This ensures you don’t miss any spots and achieve an even result.

Explore Modern Options:

  • Gradual self-tanners: These color the skin gradually with each application, for a natural result without any streaks.
  • Self-tanning concentrates: Mix a few drops with your usual moisturizer and apply as usual. The advantage? You can adjust the intensity of your tan to your liking and avoid any risk of “over-tanning.”

Don’t Forget the Basics:

Even with new generation products, exfoliating beforehand and moisturizing well remain essential for optimal results.

In short, for a natural, streak-free tan, opt for smart formulas, take your time, and don’t hesitate to build up the color gradually. The goal is to achieve a “back from vacation” effect, not a “Donald Trump on the campaign trail” look!
