A Better Approach To A Golden Glow Using Sunless Tanning Can Be Entertaining

by Haywood Hunter

Since the 1960's, people have become more aware of the effects of the sun on our skin. As a result, Sunless Tanning has increased in popularity. Many people are afraid of premature aging and skin cancer from excessive exposure to the sun. Now you can safely apply chemicals to your skin for a natural looking tan and not worry about harming your skin.

Most people appreciate the healthy look that a suntan can give your over-all appearance. Having a soft glow to your skin can have many benefits. It can make you look younger, more fit, hide skin imperfections, and just give a healthier look over-all.

Unfortunately, the more we learn about the sun and the damaging effects it can have on our skin, the less inclined we are to spend more time in it. Skin cancer awareness has caused people to fear the sun and too much time in a tanning bed. People everywhere are lathering on layers of sunscreen to help protect their skin.

But with UV-free tanning, you don't have to worry about too much sun exposure. Spray tanning uses a chemical called dihydroxyacetone (DHA) to cause a chemical reaction with the amino acids in the dead layer on the skins surface. It then causes the skin to darken in color. The color will gradually fade over the next 3-10 days, sometimes longer.

DHA is not a dye, stain, or paint and is safe to use. You don't have to worry about premature aging, unnecessary wrinkles or skin cancer when using this product. It safely washes away as your skin sloughs off dead skin cells over the next week or two.

Products that contain DHA can be applied in several ways. You can purchase lotions or creams from salons and various drug stores and watch your "tan" develop within a couple of hours. Another option is to go to a salon and step into a machine that sprays your tan on. Lastly, you can have someone airbrush a professional looking tan on you by hand.

It costs the most to have someone professionally spray your body with an airbrush gun and can be a little embarrassing. Applying the cream yourself is cheaper, but difficult to achieve a natural looking tan. Going to a salon and doing a spray tan is the easiest and fastest method. It takes less than sixty seconds for the machine to spray you.

The benefit of having the machine or airbrush gun tan you is more even results. The booth takes less than a minute, while being sprayed with an airbrush gun can take quite a bit longer. It is important to note that a spray tan will not provide protection from the sun, so be sure to continue wearing sunblock when you are in the sun's rays.

With skin cancer on the rise, it is a good idea to opt for Sunless Tanning. The results can look very natural and provide a healthy glow without risking premature aging. If you like the glow from a suntan, but are worried about the risks of too much sun exposure, you will most likely enjoy UV-free tanning. It is cost effective and a safer, healthier way to achieve a natural glow.
