Why Sunless Tanning Is Certainly Better Than Subjecting The Skin To The Sun

By Haywood Hunter


Most people have now got the message that too much exposure to sunlight can be harmful to their health. Skin cancer is one of the biggest dangers, but it is by no means the only concern. Exposure to the sun also leads to early aging as well as spots and other unsightly marks on the skin. The problem is that so many people with light skins still crave a tan. Sporting a golden brown hide remains fashionable. The answer is to rather consider sunless tanning.

There are numerous products aimed at providing an almost instant tan. It is important to find a product that is suitable to the skin type it will be used on. The internet can be a valuable resource in this regard. There are many sites dedicated to this topic. Some provide detailed reviews of some of the products and others even have discussion forums where users can ask help and advice.

Great care should be taken when perusing online advice. A product may work well for one person but not for another. That is because most of the available products are developed for very specific skin types. Care should also be taken to avoid the sites of manufacturers because they will inevitably be biased and promotional in nature. It is best to seek independent advice.

Another option is to approach an expert directly for advice. Many reputable fashion magazines publish independent reviews and sometimes they even compare the pros and cons of different products with each other. The best option, however, may be to visit a beauty salon that specialize in this field. They can confirm the skin type of the client and recommend a product that will be suitable.

Beauty products are expensive and it is best to consider a tan lotion as a luxury. If a quality brand cannot be afforded it may be best to forget about the idea. Inferior products can produce disastrous results. The skin can be damaged and the resultant color can be awful, leading to bitter disappointment and embarrassment. By buying an inferior product consumers expose themselves to health risks best avoided in the first instance.

It is also vital to carefully study the ingredients of any beauty product. Many tan lotions contain allergens that can lead to skin irritation and discomfort. When unsure, it may be wise to contact the manufacturer directly for advice. It is always a good idea to test a new product on a small area of skin. If the skin reacts negatively the product should be discarded immediately.

Responsible consumers keep environmental issues in mind when they buy beauty products. It is truly advisable to avoid any products that have been tested on animals or produced by manufacturers that have a reputation for pollution. Many beauty products are harmful to the eco system and care should therefore be taken when disposing of empty containers or unused products.

There can be no doubt that the sun causes a variety of skin problems. Young people especially often ignore this fact but most of the negative effects cannot be undone when they manifest later on in life. If a brown or golden body is desired, it is certainly better to opt for lotions that will provide the desired effect artificially.
