“Black people do tan, they just don't really talk about it. Tanning is a great way to amplify your care and yourself in general," explains Sabrina Johnson, founder of Gold Trim Tans tells Women's Health Magazine.
Johnson describes tanning as makeup for the body, similar to how you'd wear foundation to even out your skin.
Intrigued netizens react to the video
While some people were surprised to see a black woman tanning, the video left many netizens in awe of the beauty hack.
@nickyd3197 commented:
"It looks beautiful on you! The dark skin tone makes it glow. She is gorgeous!"
@RawrRawrrRawrrr responded:
"I never considered black people using tanning products, but I saw it added such a glow. You’re so pretty!"
@1mymind2isanenigma3 replied:
"In case anyone’s confused: it’s about achieving the same even skin tone. Not about getting “darker”."
@S_Blunt commented:
"I did a spray tan for a wedding once. It didn't deepen my tone, it just made it more even and added some golden highlights."
@alicesmith2495 said:
"For those questioning. It won't necessarily make you "darker" depending on how deep your skin tone is. But it WILL give you a warm or olive undertone and help even out any patchiness in tone."
@lorrenraven replied:
"Oooh, my lord. The skin is flawless. I love that it seems you've got a true cool tone to your skin, and then you add that warmth. Glowing. I love dark-skinned women feeling so comfortable in their skin. I couldn't even imagine how hard it has been for POC and especially dark/deep-toned people in this twisted world. All black is beautiful."
