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

By Haywood Hunter


Being tan is something many people become obsessed with. Not only is having a tan thought to make people look better, it also helps many of them feel better about themselves. Self tanning allows anyone with skin to have the tan they have always desired, and you don't even have to wear a swimming suit.

Not many people (especially young girls) like the idea of getting into a bathing suit, when they perceive their bodies as being flawed. Sunless tanning can hide many flaws in the skin, and self tanning can give your body the healthy glow of a real tan without endangering the health of your skin. Self tanning lowers the risk of skin cancer because there is no UV radiation involved.

During recent years, tanning in the sun and in beds has become quite popular among many young people. It is now being recommended that this activity be avoided and replaced with self tanning instead. Sunless tanning can keep young skin looking young, and it can help older skin become more beautiful. The sun has its place, but when it comes to getting a tan, Self tanning is a much safer way to give yourself some color.

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.

Laying out in the sun can only be done when the weather is warm and the sun is shining. However, when you opt for self tanning, you can have a beautiful tan every day of the year.

In order to get the best results from your sunless tanning experience, you may find it useful to prepare your skin before you apply the product. While showering, make sure you slough off as much dead skin as you can. This will help your skin absorb the lotion and help you avoid ending up with streaks.

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.
