5 Mistakes That Are Ruining Your Dark Tan (And How to Avoid Them with Ony)
Dreaming of an intense, even, and long-lasting tan? It's possible—as long as you avoid these common mistakes that can literally wash away your tan faster than you can enjoy it. Find out what to avoid and how Onyx Tan products can help you maintain that "vacation-worthy" look for longer.
1. Lack of proper hydration
Problem: Dry skin peels faster, and with it... your tan.
Solution: Regular use of moisturizing lotions helps keep skin smooth and color last longer.
Recommended product:
👉 Onyx Sunphoria – a light tanning accelerating balm with coconut oil and ginseng, which not only supports the tanning process, but also moisturizes the skin every day.
2. No exfoliation before sunbathing
Problem: Dead skin = uneven, quickly fading tan.
Solution: Gentle exfoliation 24 hours before sunbathing allows for smoother application of lotions and an even effect.
Tip: Avoid exfoliating with oils – they can create a protective layer that will hinder the action of active ingredients that accelerate tanning.
3. Too long sessions in the solarium
Problem: More is not better – overexposure to radiation can dry out the skin and accelerate exfoliation.
Solution: Shorter, regular sessions are more effective and safer.
Recommended product:
👉 Onyx HE for men – a light, fast-absorbing formula, ideal for frequent tanning sessions. It also protects tattoos and moisturizes the skin.
4. Lack of appropriate lotion before and during sunbathing
Problem: Dry tanning is a sure way to cause stains, streaks and rapid color fading.
Solution: Use specialized lotions with bronzers and accelerators that support melanin production and improve UV absorption.
Recommended product:
👉 Onyx Tattoo Rose – a tanning balm with tattoo protection and nourishing plant extracts. Perfect for women seeking a beautiful tan and well-groomed skin.
5. Neglecting after-sun care
Problem: Tanning is only half the battle – without regeneration, the skin quickly loses its glow.
Solution: After each tanning session, use moisturizing and soothing products, preferably with aloe vera or shea butter.
Tip: Avoid hot showers and tight clothes right after sunbathing – let your skin breathe and absorb the active ingredients of the lotion.
