Your Best Self Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


It is great to have beautiful bronzed skin during summer, but this lovely summer glow looks attractive all year round. You don't have to spend who knows how many exhausting hours sunbathing, there are much easier ways for achieving this amazing bronze shade. Besides, sunbathing speeds up the aging process and can be dangerous. It's much easier to use some good self tanning lotion.

There are numerous tanning salons offering all types of services. Tanning beds are still very popular, although most people don't realize that this equipment emits high levels of UV radiation. Besides, different lotions used in tan beds rarely contain SPF, their primary purpose is to accelerate your bronzing, enhancing the production of melanin. Some can contain other chemicals or colorants as well.

The easiest thing you can do is to apply different sunless tanners. They can be lotions, gels, creams or foams, but all good ones are mostly based on DHA. This component based on natural sugar reacts with outer skin layer and produces bronze color. This whole process takes up to six hours, because this chemical reaction develops color gradually. Your final color intensity depends on the percentage of DHA contained in your tanner.

The resulting color is quite similar to naturally achieved bronze. This particular chemical compound is extracted from sugar, and it is suitable for all skin types. Considering the fact that only superficial skin layer is affected, and your skin naturally sheds every few days, it means that your color will gradually fade, until it disappear after one week or so. You can reapply the lotion whenever you think it is necessary.

For achieving the best possible results and perfectly smooth and even tan, you need to follow only a few simple rules. First, you have to prepare your skin for the application. Cleanse, exfoliate and moisturize, and you will be satisfied with your results every single time. Besides, this preparation will make your color more even and longer lasting. Of course, you need to choose good quality products.

Good quality products mostly have higher prices, but they contain some other beneficial ingredients. For example, good lotion should contain high quality moisturizers, and it is always advisable to choose natural ones. Hemp seed oil is really good for your skin, as well as green tea or aloe. Good products often contain natural anti-oxidants and UV protection.

Naturally achieved tan provides certain UV rays protection. Increased melanin level plays the role of SPF three or four. SPF two, for example, means that you can stay on the sun twice as long. If you use self tanners without SPF, your lovely bronze won't protect you from direct sun rays, and you have to use some kind of lotion that contains UV rays filters. Sunburns aren't very pleasant things, and they will affect your skin appearance now and in your future.

Considering all these things, you see how important is to read the list of ingredients. If you want to have beautiful, impeccable summer tan, but also to keep your skin healthy and young, you need to use high quality products based on natural ingredients only. Apply your chosen product yourself, or find some respectable airbrush professional to do it for you. This technique is really the best for this purpose.
