| What is Sunless Tanning?
|
 Sunless tanning is exactly what the name implies.
It is any method of achieving a sun kissed appearance without actually
absorbing rays from the sun. Different methods include sunless tanning
lotions, tanning beds, mists, airbrushing and an assortment of other
options. While tanning beds and other such units technically fall
into this category, because they don't include exposure to the sun,
they should not be considered harmless. Most contain harmful rays
that can burn or otherwise damage the skin.
A safe sunless tanning agent is one of a variety of methods that
does not include harmful rays or chemicals; therefore "tanning
pills" should also be excluded from this list. If you are interested
in a sunless tanning product but find ingredients that you don't
recognize, look them up or ask your pharmacist for more information.
There are many different types of sunless tanning products available
that don't contain harmful ingredients yet still provide the bronzed
look you want to achieve. Most are affordable and simple to use,
and they make skin appear tanned when they are applied evenly and
allowed to dry thoroughly.
Sunless tanning is the perfect option for people who don't tan easily,
fair skinned people who burn easily, those who prefer to avoid exposure
to the sun and those who want to keep their tan year round. Sunless
tanning doesn't require hours of baking in the sun or in a tanning
bed; it only requires a quick application of product. Sunless tanning
agents are also the perfect way to avoid or blend away tan lines.
Best of all, you can enjoy the look of a golden tan without suffering
from skin damage in the future.
Other benefits of sunless tanning include certain additives that
are good for you, such moisturizers and sunscreens. Rub on some
sunless tanner and you can moisturize and protect your skin at the
same time. Sunless tanning is the only safe way to tan and today's
products are much higher quality than those from the past. No more
orange streaks to worry about, just a glowing, golden, sunless tan.
