How Self Tanning Is A Better Alternative To Getting Color From The Sun

By Haywood Hunter


Self tanning has been around for a while, but today it is more popular than ever. More people have learned and accepted that the sun can and will harm the skin if given too many chances to do so. This is one of the reasons self tanning has become so popular, along with the fact that self tanning can be done quickly and privately.

If you happen to be a little overweight, sunless tanning can actually make you appear a bit thinner. If nothing else, self tanning can give you a healthier appearance. Little dimples and bumps in the skin show up much better on white skin than tan, but sunless tanning can make these things all but disappear. However, the best news about self tanning may be that when you choose to get a tan from a bottle, you don't have to increase your risk for cancer.

Spotting someone who has spent a lifetime exposing their body to the sun's rays is pretty easy to do. The sun damages the skin in many ways. However, self tanning actually improves the condition of your skin. It is possible to have a body that looks as though it just got back from vacation, without torturing it with the harmful rays of the sun.

Many who wish to be tan, may be afraid that self tanning is going to make them look fake. This might have been true at one point in time, but self tanning products have seen great improvement over recent years. The orange look is something most self tanning companies have worked hard to remedy. These days, there is less cause for concern when it comes to looking natural with a self tanning product.

Self tanning takes the sun out of suntanning and gives you the opportunity to tan all year long. You don't have to wait for the seasons to change and you needn't depend on the sun to shine. It is as simple as opening up your bottle and applying the lotion to every area you wish to color.

There is a little more preparation that must be done to your body when you are self tanning. Your skin must be exfoliated and well-hydrated before you apply the product to your skin. This ensures even coverage and the risk of ending up with streaks or blotchy spots.

Overall, self tanning is a far better choice when it comes to achieving a healthy looking glow. Getting a tan with the help of the sun or a bed, takes repeated exposure to harmful radiation; sunless tanning requires just one application before you begin to see results and your skin will remain in great shape for years to come.
