Is Tanning Bad for Your Skin?

Tanning booths have become the number one way for people to keep that year round tanned look. Recently many new techniques have been devised to counter the attack on the dangers of this sun worship craze because the rates of skin cancer are on the increase.

Across America (and other countries) there has been in increase in artificial techniques with spray tanning high up on that list. There are creams and lotions called bronzers that will give you an artificial tan as well, but the spray tan seems to give better results with less streaking.

Manufacturers, quick to join the rush, have produced home spray tanning systems. While there are different ways to provide an alternative tan, the way to achieve it and make it longer lasting are the same. Exfoliation is the first step as this rids the body surface of the dead skin cells. What you don’t want is for people to recognize your tan is a fake by noticing paler patches of skin where the dead skin cells have dropped from your body.

When that is done, it will be necessary to moisten the skin by applying a good moisturizer all over. Always, always, always wear disposable surgical gloves when applying a self tanning cream etc. Lighter coats should always be applied to the joints and feet as they will appear darker, which is a dead giveaway that fake tan has been applied. When a spray tanning system is used a towel will be needed to wipe off any excess which could cause a streak.

Don’t wiggle around a lot after applying the self tanning agent, remaining as motionless as possible will help to ensure an even tan. Agents of all types will leave stains on your clothing almost as soon as you put them on so consider what you intend to wear once you have finished.

If possible always choose clothing that is darker and preferably something that is old and won’t matter if a stain is left on it. With a little care there is no reason why you cannot have a golden brown skin color throughout the year while keeping the method you use a secret, if you just take note of the information provided here.
