For a splendid tan all summer, here is a list of the products that you must have in your beach bag: sunscreen, a good Tahitian Monoi, and a swimsuit. By following out little tips, your skin tan can only be beautiful. So here we go, enjoy all the sunbathing you can and become more beautiful before you get back to work!

Sunscreen: your best friend against sunburn.

For a good tan, the choice of a suitable sunscreen is vital. Several considerations are made to avoid making mistakes in this area. First, the choice is made depending on a person’s skin type.

We have identified four major skin types:
-Very pale sensitive skin
-Fair skin
-Intermediate skins
-Resistant skins

Therefore, it is essential to pick a sunscreen that matches the expected level of exposure to sun. The UV protection factor may indeed vary considerably from one product to another, which is why it is necessary to be well informed before purchasing. The time and place of tanning must be considered: it is clear that intense exposure on tropical islands does not represent the same risk for skin tanning as a few minutes on a less sunny beach. In all cases, it is strongly recommended to avoid basking in the sun between noon and 4 pm. The French Agency for Safety of Health Products lists several categories sun protection depending on the UV indices adopted.

Low levels of protection have indication levels of 6 to 14, the average coverage range from 15 to 29, the upper protection levels have 30, and 50 have a very high protection index greater than 50. Of course, the most fragile skins, must definitely protect themselves with sunscreens having high indices. This is also true for prolonged exposure. As far as the cream is concerned, apply it in the morning to avoid sunburn. In general, a regular application, approximately every two hours, is the surest way to prevent any danger to the skin. This is the guarantee of a safe tan, which can be refined by using a moisturizing skin in the evening. For those who want to have a nice golden skin on the beach before exposing yourself to the sun, it is possible to opt for artificial UV sessions.

Monoï is an oil essential for enhancing your skin.

Another tip to be aware of this summer is monoï tanning. This dry, exotically scented oil from Tahiti is the best product to enhance and perfume your skin. Once a traditional secret of the Tahitian Vahiné women, today monoï is a particularly sought after beauty oil, as much for its original fragrance as for its 100% natural composition. Tahitian monoï is made from marinating fresh tiaré flowers from the Polyneisan soil in a bath of coconut oil. This technique allows an oil suitable for both skin and hair care to be extracted. Monoï tanning is an ideal method to effectively prepare the skin for exposure to the sun by intensely hydrating and perfuming it. Guaranteed to be free from mineral oil and parabens, monoï leaves the skin softer and more supple.

It is advised to spray monoï oil on the body regularly throughout a day of exposure to the sun, especially after physical exercise or going in the water. It is also possible to apply it to the face and hair to make them shine more brilliantly. The oil should be kept out of heat and direct light so as to preserve its protective qualities for the skin. Monoï tanning hydrates the outer layers of the skin for long periods, while assuring a notable softening of the skin. A satin effect is immediately visible after application, for six-hour long natural hydration on average. It is also an ideal way to nourish the skin after long exposure to the sun, capable of regenerating and bronzing the skin naturally. A perfect complement to tanning, monoï also protects against the cold, the wind and sea salt.

The tan-through swimsuit for a golden body

To tan in the best conditions without having to resort to naturism, one solution presents itself: the tan-through swimsuit. Thanks to innovative fabrics, it is possible to achieve a perfect full body tan without marks. Tan-through swimsuits allow you to achieve an all-over tan without having to undress completely on the beach or by the pool. The fabric has the facility to allow some UV rays through, enough to quickly give the skin a beautiful golden colour.

It guarantees an easily achieved even tan without having to worry about how to dress. The tan-through swimsuit allows you to get rid of those unpleasant tan lines often found on the back or around the neck. It is also a very pleasant swimsuit to wear, light and comfortable, with normal material which also has the capacity to dry out more quickly than a traditional swimsuit.

Practical and enjoyable, this type of swimsuit is recommended for everyone. The only inconvenience of this modern material is that you need to apply sun cream to the swimsuit in question, as well as to the rest of your body. It effectively allows UV rays to pass through, risking sunburn without suitable protection. After exposure to the sun via a tan-through swimsuit, you must not forget to use a high factor sun cream all over your body. It’s a simple and clever way to ensure perfect tanning in all circumstances.

Temporary flash tattoos; jewellery for on-trend tanned skin.

Several women now display a flashy accessory: a flash tattoo. Having a fairly inquisitive nature, I became interested in this trend which will surely be THE phenomenon of the summer, and which has already been seen on Beyoncé!
Flash tattoos are an alternative to traditional jewellery this spring-summer. They can be worn over actual bracelets or jewellery, or alone. Skin jewellery will enhance golden skin. Whether it’s at the beach, at the pool, for a concert, for a single day or an evening, we’re no longer hesitating!

They are designed like real jewellery, and there is one to suit any taste: ethnic jewellery, fingertip rings, necklaces, bracelets and cuffs. They are available in golden and metallic tones to illuminate skin. There are even designs which can be tattooed onto hands, the back or the body for women who haven’t reached the stage of getting a real tattoo (or even for those who have already had one too!)
No longer do you need to take off costume jewellery when going in the water: they stay on for 5 to 7 days. How do you take off your temporary tattoo? Wipe it with cotton wool soaked in make up remover or body lotion and that’s it!

This on-trend accessory will make your golden skin dazzle (be careful to protect yourself from UV rays!) and you can keep changing it throughout the summer. As for me, I chose the ethnic “Child of Wild”, and I feel like an Egyptian with the appearance of Nefertiti! I feel like I’m going to give in again for other styles…
And to be perfect on the beach, why not match your nail varnish to your swimming costume or your beach outfit; and think about permanent hair removal for flawless legs?

So, are you tempted by flash tattoos?
