We all know that UV rays from the sun and traditional tanning beds are terrible for our skin. They both can cause skin cancer and premature aging. We all want to banish our pale, pasty skin for a deep, dark tan without the consequences of actually tanning. Its just a fact that everyone looks better with a sun-bronzed glow.
To get the tan that you want means going for some other options. Spray on tan has become very popular over the past few years as the technology improves and more products become available. This type of tanning can be done at home or in your local beauty salon. Spray tan uses DHA as it’s active component for tanning. A colorless chemical, this darkens the skin by gently staining it.
A single treatment can take from half an hour to an hour to apply to your entire body. Once you have had the treatment you will look like you’ve just come back from a nice sunny holiday. The treatment lasts for around a week. Before having a spray tan you should make sure that you fully exfoliate your body so that you get a nice consistent tan. You need to make sure that there is no residue of other products as this could stop your skin from taking up the spray tan correctly.
You do have to be careful of the product not getting on your clothing and furniture. You should wear dark baggy clothing for a few hours after the DHA mixture is applied. Anything that is 100% cotton will not stain from this mixture and will not need a stain remover to take it out. Using a good water based lotion will help the tan to last longer.
You can apply peroxide to a cotton ball for quick removal on the skin. This type of tanning is the number one recommendation of dermatologists. Not only will it give you a beautiful tan, it will also hide cellulite, tan lines, blemishes, and spider veins.
There are some really good tanning solutions that you can use from home if you are willing to pay for the equipment. Some have screens that enable you to adjust the settings from a tap of the screen. The equipment isn’t too large so is easy to store and it is therefore easy to take with you. With this kind of home system you can top up your tan whenever you want.
If you don’t want to purchase a tanning product to use at home you can visit your local salon. This way you will get an expert advising you on the best way to apply your tan. If you go often they will be able to give you top up tanning to maintain that color that you like the best.
With spray tanning your skin will look healthy and you wont have to worry about dangerous sun damage. You even have the option of having the DHA come out in a fine mist. Instead of going to the old fashion tanning bed, jump on the bandwagon and start getting a spray tan for your tan today.
