Bathing suit to wear to avoid tan lines?!

Bocachica, on February 7, 2019 at 10:00 AM Posted in Fitness and Health 2 8
Hi y’all! I’m getting married the end of the summer and have a low cut dress with a low back which shows tan lines from a “regular” bikini on both sides. By August I will have definitely been to the beach a few times and even with regular sunscreen application know I will get some type of tan. Anyone seen any good bathing suits out there, or will I most likely have to adjust straps when I’m out by the water?

    I would probably try to get a bandeau/strapless swimsuit and then plan to undo the top when you are laying on your stomach.

    Perhaps look into one pieces that have low backs-- not sure if your dress has straps or not.

    Couldn't you just go with something strapless?

    I did a search for backless or low back swimsuits and there are a lot that come up. I'd get one and try it on underneath your dress to see if its out of the way

    I know this sounds silly but when you do find a swim that you think has no showing tan lines, you should try it on and put the dress over it to make sure that you’re good to go!

    I went for low or open back one pieces (found a few at American Eagle last year), but also found alternating swimsuits to be KEY (and undoing the backs of any two pieces when I laid on my stomach). I’m out in the sun A LOT for work, so I found the beach was the least of my worries. I got a super lightweight flowy long sleeved button up that I threw on over anything sleeveless as much as possible.

    Haha I could still detect slight tan lines day of but to be honest I stayed pretty pale given all my efforts, so, it didn’t end up too noticeable

    Hey Bocachica!! Agreeing with the above comments, I would opt for either a low back one piece or just make sure you undo your bathing suit when you are laying on your stomach!! If the line becomes super noticeable, you can also put some self tanner over the line to make it less noticeable on the wedding day!
