Achieve A Golden Tan Using Sunless Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


You can look slimmer with a nice tan. There are many benefits to having a suntan, including, hiding skin imperfections, looking younger, and it naturally slims you down. This article will address the benefits of Sunless Tanning Lotion.

Because people have been concerned about skin cancer and the effects the sun can have on premature ageing, tanning creams that don't require the sun have become more popular. There are no health hazards associated with using this kind of product.

The active ingredient in sunless tanning lotions is dihydroxyacetone, or DHA. This chemical causes a reaction on dead skin cells, making the skin change a few shades darker. Some lotions also combine erythrulose with DHA to get a tan that can even last longer.

Applying the product can be tricky and it is recommended that you exfoliate your skin really well, so that the product will apply evenly. Be careful of thicker skinned areas like the elbows, as the product can sometimes turn darker in these areas. Hold off from swimming or bathing for a few hours until the cream has completely absorbed into your skin.

Keep in mind that while these lotions can make your skin darker in appearance, they offer no protection from the sun. They do not contain a sunscreen and you can develop a sunburn after spending time in the sun if you are not wearing sunscreen. The tan that develops is for cosmetic purposes only and will not add extra protection while in the sun.

Sunless tanning lotion is great because there are no health risks. Using this product, you don't have to worry about skin damage or premature ageing. Application is quick and simple and can be applied until desired color is reached. This lotion is a great alternative to conventional sun beds or sunbathing. You can have a beautiful tan without harming your skin!
