Before the advent of indoor tanning, the only way to darken the skin for days was to sit under the scorching sun. The application of Sol sunless tanner makes it possible for anyone to sport a lovely bronze complexion at any given time or day without the risk. Read on to know how this product makes you seem as though you just spent a full weekend at the beach.

There are two components that make this UV-free tanning product work very well. They include the bronzer and an organic substance called DHA. Both of them play important roles when it comes to giving your skin a fake suntan. Without the other, you may have to wait for hours before the effect shows up or the resulting color may easily get washed off in the shower.

Staining the skin right away is the major role of the added bronzer. You will be glad that it is around especially after knowing the fact that the other ingredient, DHA, takes about three hours to cause the skin to darken. Thanks to the added bronzing component, you can start to look and feel alluring the moment you rub on the tanning product.

It also lets you easily see where you have already applied the UV-free tanner. Because it causes your skin to end up stained, you can apply the tanning solution evenly all over your body or on certain parts only. The addition of bronzer helps keep those unsightly streaks at bay, allowing you to hide the fact that your lovely complexion was obtained indoors.

DHA is the ingredient that makes your complexion look bronzed for an entire week. This substance is also present in so many other UV-free tanners being trusted by a lot of fake suntan fanatics these days. Derived from plants, DHA causes skin to darken when it comes into contact with the amino acids present. The change becomes noticeable three hours after the application.

You can expect for the golden-brown hue to darken further in the next 24-72 hours from the moment the tanner was applied. It's a good idea to allow enough time to pass before you get tempted to reapply the tanning product to avoid ending up with a shockingly dark fake tan. The resulting color slowly fades because the skin sheds off its topmost layer periodically.

It's perfectly normal for you to notice a fishy smell some time after applying the tanner. This is actually produced by DHA while it is carrying out its role. Don't assume that it's an issue that is limited to the use of the Sol indoor tanning product because all other DHA-based tanners also give off this smell. Luckily, the addition of scents helps in minimizing this odor.

Avoid taking a shower or bath in the next 6-8 hours in order to give DHA enough time to develop. You will notice that water easily causes the stain created by the bronzing component to be erased. Worry not because by that time DHA has already produced the initial change in your complexion, intensifying further and gradually fading in a week's time.
