Making Natural Sun Tan Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


Everyone these days would like to get a tan because not only does a bronze skin tone make them look nicer but it also makes the skin less vulnerable to ultraviolet rays. Now one of the fastest ways to get one without having to go to a tanner would be to use a sun tan lotion. Now if one is wary of the ingredients that would be in these lotions, he has the option to actually make one right at home.

Now to start off, one has to first fill a container with water three fourths full and then dump it into a pan. Once the water is already in the pan, then the next thing to do would be to actually boil the water that is inside of the pan. One only needs to boil the water for around just ten minutes before stopping the fire.

When the water has already been boiled, then one now has to put the boiling water into an empty jar. After that, he should get some black tea bags and put them inside of the jar so that they can be absorbed by the hot water. He should use at least three black tea bags and should leave it there for around fifteen minutes.



First, dump in around one fourth of the tea into the blender and let it set there for a few seconds. Now aside from the tea, one would also be needing two more ingredients namely lanolin and some sesame oil. Now put in the lanolin and the sesame oil along with the tea and start blending the mix.

Now do take note that the speed of the blender has to be low because if it is too fast, it might smash up all the ingredients and nothing will be left. For the first blend, blend it for around two seconds before going to the second blend. In the second blend, continue blending it until it becomes a thick substance.

Once he has already blended the three things together, he will be able to see an oily substance forming in the bottom of the blender. What he has to do is to make sure that the oily substance does not stick to the blades. Once he has done this, then the next thing that he has to do would be to dump in the remaining two fourths cup of tea that was used a while ago inside. From there, blend the substance for a third time.

Now repeat the process again and start blending the mix. Eventually, there will be a creamy substance that will form inside the blender which will become the lotion. Once the creamy substance forms, take it out of the blender and put it inside another container.

Now with this creamy lotion, one may now enjoy having a nice tan when he would go under the sun. Now one should take note that this is not a miracle potion that will turn the skin bronze in an instant. It will take constant application of the substance and constant exposure to the sun before any effects would show.
