What To Do About Places That Wear Off Faster?

What do I do about the spots that seem to wear off faster?  Almost every woman has places or spots that tend to wear off a little faster than the rest of her body.  According to research, one of the most common reasons is our hormones, along with excessive sweating, and long, hot showers.  You might notice between the breasts, the bend of the elbow, back of the knee, or the top of the back seem to be places that the tan fades fastest (It's different for each woman).
The problem that is easily remedied is the top of the back, caused by the long hot shower.  If you can stand away from the shower head a bit, and take a little shorter (maybe cooler) shower, the top of the back should last much longer.  Obviously, we can't just change our hormones over night; and for those that exercise, excessive sweating is difficult to avoid.  So, what to do?  First of all, with our particular solution, patting dry with a towel, instead of rubbing dry will definately help extend the life of the tan.  However, the best thing that can be done is to use tan extender of some sort.  There are a variety of products on the market today that will help you get the most out of the life of your tan.  By simply applying the extender to the particular place that wears off on YOUR body, the life of your tan can be extended by several days.  Results will typically be seen in 4-6 hours.  If an immediate result is needed, bronzing powder can be used to "fill in"  those places while waiting for the extender to react with your skin.
