Tan to Glam
The awards season is well and truly upon us. We’ve been inundated with pictures of all the A-list celebrities walking the red carpet in their expensive designer outfits and dazzling jewelry.
Granted they do have a team of people helping them but a lot of work goes into achieving red carpet perfection; hair, makeup and tanning.
What is the secrets as to why do celebrities tan?
Answer: It creates the illusion of a slimmer profile and flawless skin.
Tanned even skin tone does give the appearance of a more slender body. You can even apply a darker shade of fake tan to the sides of the torso, arms, legs and chest to create the illusion of a slimmer physique without sweating it out for hours at the gym.
Although a spray tan won’t take pounds off the scales it does provide a quick and easy way to look leaner and more toned in a matter minutes.
A spray tan helps you to look leaner as the darker colour draws the eye, this slimming effect occurs on all body types so you don’t have to be a muscular to reap the benefits.
It’s not just celebrities that use fake tan to enhance their looks, in the bodybuilding world fake tanning is big business.
Competitive bodybuilders use fake tan for the same reason as we all do; they just use a much darker shade and a lot more of it to achieve exaggerated results.
Why do bodybuilders tan?
Answer: To show off their muscle definition.
Muscles appear more prominent on darker skin tones than on lighter skin tones, so fake tanning is a great way to increase the look of muscles and make them appear more ripped and cut.
Many bodybuilders opt for an extra dark fake tan to highlight the muscles on their chest, torso, arms and legs to give the best effect when competing. Sunless tanning not only defines muscle tone it is also great at camouflaging stretch marks and other blemishes by evening out the skin tone. A balanced complexion appears more attractive under competition lights and ensures that any scars and blemishes are much harder to see.
Bodybuilders spend years reducing their body fat to ensure that their muscles are visible even when they are not flexed, as with the celebrities, a spray tan also helps them to look even leaner and more defined.
One of the main reasons for celebrities and professional bodybuilder using a tanning product is that glare of bright lights and camera flashes can make you look washed out and pale.
You don’t have to be a celebrity or a bodybuilder to look glamorous and lean, great fake tanning products are available to us all.
Make sure you pick the right tan for your skin tone to achieve that flawless look.
