Why Sunless Tanning Is Definitely Safer Than Exposing The Body To The Sun

By Haywood Hunter


The fact that the sun can cause a wide variety of health problems simply cannot be disputed. One of the main dangers is skin cancer, but premature aging is also a big problem. In addition, too much exposure to the sun can cause marks and spots on the skin. Sporting a beautiful tan remains high fashion however and many people brave the sun and fool themselves that they are wearing lotions to protect them against the harmful UV rays. It is much better to rater consider sunless tanning as an alternative.

There is a bewildering array of products promising perfect results and a brown skin in no time at all. However, it may be difficult to find the tan lotion that will best work for the type of skin on which it will be used. There are many websites that provide expert advice and product reviews and these can prove to be very helpful. Many also offer discussion forums where consumers can share their experiences.

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.

It may also be wise to peruse fashion magazines and other publications that specialize in consumer advice. Many publications review a variety of products and publish a comparative table of results. For the very best results, however, it would be best to ask a skin specialist to analyze the skin and to recommend products that will work best with that type of skin.

Most professional beauty therapists agree that it is a big mistake to purchase any cosmetics, including tan lotions that are produced by unknown manufacturers. Trying to save money by buying cheap and untested products can lead to bitter disappointment and very poor results. They can even cause extensive damage to the skin. The best advice is therefore to either buy the best possible product or to rater do without it altogether.

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.

It is a sad fact that many manufacturers and consumers still do not heed the needs of the environment. Nobody should ever purchase a product that has been tested on animals. If the product does not specifically state that no animal testing has been done, then that product should be shunned.

Sporting a tan is still fashionable but the price can be horrific. It is definitely better to rather opt for a lotion that will provide the desired effect indoors. Skin damage caused by the sun can often not be undone or if it can, only at great cost.
