This is because melanin protects the skin from one of the main agents of aging, the sun. And because his dark skin ages differently from others, we must take a special routine for them. Everything is in giving that extra care to both your skin and your body and spirit.

Back from vacation for many, and the usual rigor phrase: ‘What you’re brown, what color you good! “. It is then perhaps think about how difficult it is to get a nice tan, and how quickly disappears once we return to the routine. Therefore, we will try to help keep this flattering tone, following a few simple recommendations. Notes:

The first step in this direction (if it’s too late you should bear this in mind next time) is to acquire good habits during the actual exposure to the sun, after exfoliation, moisturizing daily and implementation of appropriate protection for your skin type.

Choosing a good after sun. These are designed to nourish the skin after sun exposure and help keep the color longer.
In addition, you should have both a gentle exfoliation of the face and body and then apply moisturizer during the day and nutritious overnight. Do not forget, because if not, you will suffer collateral damage and your skin will peel.

Feeding is also important, as there are products that enhance the dark. Carrots, watermelon, melon or berries contain beta-carotene, which stimulates skin pigmentation.

It is also essential to drink plenty of water to hydrate the skin not only ‘outside’. And finally, another possible option to keep brown is the use of sunless tanning, which give the skin the desired tan intensity, but with the advantage of avoiding sun damage. If you want to use these products, use a scrub to remove dead cells and thereby obtain a better result.
