Suntanned skin cannot be restored to its original state. Do these things and you don’t have to worry about not getting whiter.

Some people are happy and some are sad after their skin gets tanned. Those who are happy do so because the tanned skin can turn white quickly, while those who are sad do so because the tanned skin cannot return to its original state, and some even see no difference from when they were just tanned even after more than a year. Now let us look at what you have not done well, which has caused your tanned skin to become irreversible.

Skin tan cannot be restored to its original state

Generally speaking, the skin can return to its original state after being tanned, unless you are born with darker skin, then it is a different story. Tanned skin cannot be restored to its original state, which has a lot to do with the whitening care and maintenance of your skin after tanning. Of course, it also depends on everyone's metabolism. The faster the metabolism, the faster the recovery. That’s why some people recover in a week, while others need a month or two, half a year, or even a year.

Drink more water after tanning

It is recommended to drink more water every day after your skin is tanned, generally at least 8 glasses of water a day. Because drinking more water can increase blood circulation, promote metabolism, enhance the body's immune function, and allow melanocytes to be quickly metabolized and removed in the shortest time. This way you don't have to worry about your tanned skin not being able to recover.

Hydrate your skin after tanning

After tanning, you must moisturize your skin, especially the skin that has just been tanned. It is generally recommended to apply a facial mask every day one week before tanning, and 3-5 times a week after one week depending on the situation. The reason why you need to replenish water after your skin is tanned is that ultraviolet rays and sunlight cause them to quickly metabolize the moisture in the basal layer of the skin. Once the skin is in a state of dehydration, the skin's microcirculation will easily slow down, and melanin cannot be metabolized and is deposited on the skin surface.

Eat more VC after your skin is tanned

After your skin gets tanned, eat more vitamin C or foods containing vitamin C, such as kiwi, orange, tomato, etc. Because vitamin C can directly inhibit the production of melanocytes, and can also reduce the pigmentation of the skin, allowing melanocytes to be metabolized through microcirculation or systemic circulation as much as possible. Only when the melanin in the basal layer of the skin is reduced, the skin will gradually become whiter, and there will be no need to worry about the skin being tanned and unable to return to its original state.

Exercise more after tanning

It is recommended to do more indoor exercise after your skin is tanned, because exercise can increase blood circulation and help the metabolism of melanocytes. It is generally recommended to do aerobic exercise, such as indoor swimming, treadmill, aerobics and cycling, etc., and try to avoid long-term outdoor exercise.

Pay attention to sleep after tanning

After your skin is tanned, you must maintain good sleeping habits. It is generally recommended to go to bed at 11 o'clock at the latest. Because from 11pm to 3am, the skin breaks down collagen to repair the skin, and it is also the time for the skin to breathe metabolic waste. If you haven't fallen asleep or stay up late at this time, the waste and melanocytes cannot be metabolized, which will cause your skin to become darker, dark circles to be obvious, and will also increase the aging of the skin.
