Disambiguation Of Effects Of A Sun Tanner

By Haywood Hunter


The skin is the largest organ of the body. Its primary purpose is to protect the rest of the inner body organs from mechanical and chemical damage. However, it is also a symbol of beauty and makes people feel better about themselves. Therefore, people go to great lengths to enhance the way their skins look and protect them from any damaging factors. There has been an ongoing debated on whether people should use a sun tanner or a sunless tanning process.

Manufacturers have flooded the market with various brands of products. A sun tanner is able to achieve the same side effects as the natural sun rays would. Manufacturers depend on several factors to market their products. Among these is that the sun has rays that have harmful side effects on the skin. Research has shown that these rays have a direct effect on occurrence of cancer.

Many people have much trust in natural products and this is a fact that manufacturers use to market their products. They indicate on the labels of the sun tanner that the product is made from pure natural product. They are made of animal products or plant products. These are popular because they are easily integrated into the body systems without any side effects.

Despite the claims of different manufacturers, the common ingredient for all products is dihydroxyacetone. It works by causing reactions with the amino acids in the skin. This is how they are able to achieve their objectives within hours because of this reaction. However, research indicates that this technique is not as effective against sunburns as natural sun tanner is.

Consumers are in need of information for them to be able to make decisions that will impact their lives positively. Scientists have established through research that the sun has many different bad effects on the skin. Prolonged exposure could cause sunburns and breaking down of the DNA in skin cells. The FDA and researchers have established that DHA does not have any harmful side effects on the skin and therefore consumers need not be afraid of using a sun tanner.

Many factors would lead people to prefer using artificial sun tanner products rather than the natural sunrays. The sun is only around at certain times of the year. An individual would have to wait for these times or travel to areas where the sun is available all year round. The tropics are a preference for many. The products also help to avoid side effects like increased rate of aging.

Another advantage of artificially induced sun tanner tanning is that it allows even tanning for the whole body. Sunbathing requires one to be in a bikini. Apart from in the few nude beaches in the world, it is an offense to be nude in public. Therefore the bikini covers some areas resulting in patches where the skin is in different colors.

Various products enable people to achieve the objective of tanning their skins. Sun tanner products can be acquired from general stores or from beauty shops. Most manufacturers also distribute their products through websites and various online stores.
