Discover why sunbeds may not effectively tan your face and how to achieve an even tan.
33 views
Sunbeds might not tan your face if it's covered in sunblock or makeup that blocks UV rays. Facial skin can also be naturally more resistant or frequently exfoliated, which removes tanned skin cells faster. To achieve an even tan, ensure your face is clean and uncovered, or consider adjusting the position to expose your face more effectively. Always follow the manufacturer's guidelines for safe usage.
