There is no doubt having a tan makes you feel thinner, sexier and healthier. However, these days baking in the sun is becoming increasingly unpopular as more women realize the sun’s UV rays age skin faster than anything.

Salon tans are your best bet

If you want a flawless, professional application and can afford the price, head to a spa or salon. For upward of $80, you can get one of many options: Full body exfoliation and professional application of self-tanner, airbrush bronzing (where an aesthetician sprays a fine mist of tanner over your entire body), or your least expensive option: spray tanning. You can step into a booth and get sprayed on all sides for about $40 a session.
