The Basic Elements Of Suntan Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


Suntan lotion products can refer to sunscreen or indoor tanning lotion. Though these two products are used for alternative purposes. Sunscreen, also known as sunblock, is used to protect skin from UV radiation. On the other hand, tanning creams are used to aid in the process of tanning.

Some common ingredients found in indoor tanning lotions include melanin and L-Tyrosine. These products may also include ingredients such as green tea extract, copper and various oils. Some include special ingredients that help moisturize or bronze skin. As their name suggest, these products for tanning are not made for outdoor use, as they offer no protection against the sun.

The creams may work in one of two ways. They may increase the melanin production or the blood circulating to the skin. Either way, the melanin of the skin is increased. Typically these creams are used with a tanning machine that gives off UV light.

The product that can be used outside is known as sunscreen. This formula, which is used to absorb or reflect ultraviolet rays from the sun, can come in many forms, including gel, cream and spray. Sunscreen can also prevent sunburn from prolonged sun exposure.

Most sunscreens contain organic chemical compounds, or organic or inorganic particulates. Physical and chemical are the two main classifications for this product. Physical formulas are created to reflect the sunlight, while chemical formulas absorb the rays. Sunscreen use is recommended for people with all types of skin because it is believed to prevent harmful effects of increased sun exposure, such as cancer or even sunburn.

Suntan lotion can refer to sunblock or tanning cream products. These may be used differently, but both include formulas that are applied topically to skin. Sunscreen blocks are used as protection against exposure to the sun and tanning cream are used for indoor tanning, bronzing and moisturizing.
