Your Best Self Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


It is great to have beautiful bronzed skin during summer, but this lovely summer glow looks attractive all year round. You don't have to spend who knows how many exhausting hours sunbathing, there are much easier ways for achieving this amazing bronze shade. Besides, sunbathing speeds up the aging process and can be dangerous. It's much easier to use some good self tanning lotion.

Tanning beds are really popular. Most lotions used in such salons are designed to accelerate the bronzing process, and they usually don't contain any UV protection factors. They can be based on carrot oil or DHA, which are natural colorants, or have different chemical components that enhance melanin production. In any case, you have to be aware of the fact that beds emit more UV rays than sun.

Sunless tanners come in forms of sprays, gels, lotions and creams. Today, most of them are based on DHA. DHA has very interesting characteristic. When it is applied on the skin, it reacts with skin cells, and dye them into different bronze nuances. It usually affects only the top skin layer, containing mostly dead skin cells. The higher percentage of DHA in your products will create darker nuances.

DHA is perfectly harmless, and creates attractive bronze colors that look natural, just as you have spent long hours baking under hot summer sun. The color lasts at least for a week. Considering the fact your skin sheds once in every three to four days, your color will gradually fade away. To keep your desired color shade you have to reapply the product when you see the change in your skin color.

For achieving the best possible results and perfectly smooth and even tan, you need to follow only a few simple rules. First, you have to prepare your skin for the application. Cleanse, exfoliate and moisturize, and you will be satisfied with your results every single time. Besides, this preparation will make your color more even and longer lasting. Of course, you need to choose good quality products.

Making the right choice is not so easy. There are numerous different products out there, and it is hard to choose the best one. The first thing you should do is to read the list of ingredients. Search for natural ingredients, good quality natural moisturizers such as hemp seed oil and natural anti-oxidants. It is always advisable to choose products that contain higher SPF.

Naturally achieved tan provides certain UV rays protection. Increased melanin level plays the role of SPF three or four. SPF two, for example, means that you can stay on the sun twice as long. If you use self tanners without SPF, your lovely bronze won't protect you from direct sun rays, and you have to use some kind of lotion that contains UV rays filters. Sunburns aren't very pleasant things, and they will affect your skin appearance now and in your future.

When choosing your favorite sunless tanning lotion, make sure to read the list of ingredients very carefully. Choose good quality products only, and you won't be disappointed with achieved results. If you want to achieve really impeccable results, maybe you should consider visiting professional airbrush tanning salon. This technique really provides the best possible results.
