Healthful Combinations Of Ingredients For Tanning Accelerators

By Haywood Hunter


Tanning accelerators are agents that are specifically involved with the actual darkening of the skin. They do not form a coat, instead, they increase the levels of melanin in the epidermal or outermost layer of the skin. Melanin is released from melanocytes and is the pigment which determines the skin color. The more melanin that a person produces, the darker their skin will be.

The fact that these accelerators increase pigmentation in the skin is a good selling point for manufacturers. Customers do not have to commit too much time to getting a tan by the pool or in their favorite salon. They will see the positive effects after a few minutes in the sun. This is also a point of contention of many individuals who feel the product may be damaging. But, if you take the time to select a product with quality ingredients, you should be fine.

In your search for the best option for you, try to stick with products that have only the necessary ingredients. These include active ingredients such as amino acids and vitamin B12, natural oils and other vitamins and minerals that strengthen the skin. Others that have too many mystery ingredients that are sometimes not needed.

Products with the amino acids Psoralen and Tyrosine as their active ingredient are usually recommended. Some products may also combine these with Riboflavin or B12, another active ingredient. Amino acids and vitamins form an important part of skin care and thus their use in this capacity is often welcomed because of the many potential benefits.

Products with the aforementioned active ingredients that also have a host of beneficial oils and vitamins are usually the best choice. The oils help to moisturize the skin while also giving it a healthy and glowing appearance. The vitamins do the same thing and thus the combination gives the skin an extremely smooth appearance in terms of tone and also makes it soft to the touch.

Finding all the right ingredients in your tanning accelerators can make all the difference. It is important that you think about the overall health of your skin and not just the change in color. By following the tips above, you will know the best product for you.
