Getting tanned skin is everyone’s dream. There are various ways to get a tan, but the most natural ways to get a radiantly beautiful tanned skin is to stay under the sun.
Aside from getting a natural tan, exposing your skin under sunlight will also allow you to absorb Vitamin D and enjoy the sun’s skin-enhancing benefits.
Before you expose yourself under the sun, it’s best to apply tanning oil. The oil won’t only moisturize and condition your skin, but it will also protect it from free radicals and help to repair and regenerate from sun damage.
