How To Choose The Best Self Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


Beautiful bronze tan makes you younger, slimmer and more attractive. If you think it's enough looking great only during summer months, it's your choice, but today it is possible to look your best in any season. Sunbathing used to be the only way for achieving beautiful bronze tan, but there are many other ways for this. You can simply apply some good self tanning lotion, for example.

Some people prefer tanning beds. The problem is that these beds emit at least three times more dangerous UV rays than summer sun. Lotions designed to use in tan beds often don't contain UV protection, and you have to be very careful when using them. In fact, they are usually designed only to enhance the production of melanin, and to speed up your bronzing.

Sunless tanners come in forms of sprays, gels, lotions and creams. Today, most of them are based on DHA. DHA has very interesting characteristic. When it is applied on the skin, it reacts with skin cells, and dye them into different bronze nuances. It usually affects only the top skin layer, containing mostly dead skin cells. The higher percentage of DHA in your products will create darker nuances.

DHA is made from sugar and it is really harmless, what makes it good for all skin types. It affects only the top skin layer, made mostly of dead skin cells. Human skin sheds occasionally, and these dead skin cells will gradually fall off. That's why your color will disappear in maybe ten days. Simply apply another layer of your selected tanner when you think it is needed.

Your skin needs to be properly prepared for the application. It means that it has to be exfoliated, cleansed and well moisturized. Well prepared skin will be evenly dyed and smooth, and your color will last longer. Using good quality moisturizer will additionally prolong the life of your beautiful bronze summer glow. In any case, choosing the best quality products is the best guarantee for great results.

Making the right choice is not so easy. There are numerous different products out there, and it is hard to choose the best one. The first thing you should do is to read the list of ingredients. Search for natural ingredients, good quality natural moisturizers such as hemp seed oil and natural anti-oxidants. It is always advisable to choose products that contain higher SPF.

Sunbathing results with darker skin, thanks to increased level of melanin. This dark color is a natural protection against dangerous UV rays, with SPF three or even four, depending on your skin type. If you use self tanners without SPF, your tan will be bronze, but won't provide any UV protection. Considering different health risks associated with sun exposure, you should use products with SPF when outside.

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.
