Don't be shy to enhance it

You've already got the perfect base for a beautiful tan, there's nothing wrong if you add a layer or two of self tanner to enhance it. You can easily put it on like a body lotion and it will still look natural AF.

Add some extra glow too!

Having that amazing glow is one of the best parts of having a summer tan. So when you notice that it's losing its radiance (or when you just want an extra layer of shimmer), pack on some body shimmer — there are so many great options to choose from right now.

Avoid waxing

Of course, you want your tanned limbs to be hairless for summer. However, you might want to do some gentle shaving instead of waxing, since waxing might cause your tan to fade more quickly.

Stay hydrated

Your skin is not the only thing that needs to be hydrated: You have to make sure your body is too (obviously)! Drinking water helps your skin stay healthy, soft and smooth. Make sure you're getting those eight cups of water daily!

Eat some beta-carotene

Aside from drinking plenty of water, eating some beta-carotenes will also give you that glowing skin: Include sweet potatoes, mangoes, carrots, and other red-orange veg and fruits in your diet this summer. Nothing beats a healthy glow from the inside!
