Pros And Cons Of Sun Self Tan

By Haywood Hunter


Most people like having a good self tan. It greatly enhances their appearance especially if it is done well. A person can either use sun or sunless options to have their skin tanned. Whatever option a person may settle on each has specific advantages and disadvantages that are attributed to it. There are several benefits and disadvantages of sun self tan.



A client will always seek to pay the least amount of money for any good or service. Most of the sunless lotions available to an individual are quite expensive hence out of reach for most people. Sunbathing is free therefore for someone who may not have the money to buy the lotions; they can consider a self tan.

Exposure to sun rays leads to the production of melanin by the skin. The melanin is the one that is responsible for making the skin to tan. Sun self tan makes the skin glow is much more effective more than other options one may have like spraying or use of lotions.



Vitamin D is an essential vitamin that can be gotten from the sun. Any deficiency of the vitamin can lead to great problems to the person. A person can suffer from various conditions like rickets or other diseases from simply lacking vitamin D. When someone is having a sun self tan, they not only look out for their skin but they are also getting important vitamins.

The sunless tan lotions that people may consider using are not very effective in achieving a tan. This is because one has to apply them for a while before they can notice any change. This means that one has to spend a lot of money buying large quantities of these lotions so that they can use them for a long period of time. This can be quite expensive especially for a person who is on a budget. This type of self tan is however much more effective and is not costly.

Exposure to sun rays is necessary but one should know that too much of everything is poisonous. For sun self tan to be effective, one has to be in the sun for a period of ten minutes each day without sunscreen. This can be quite dangerous since one can be exposed to the ultra violet rays which can lead to one having their skin seriously damaged.

Each person desires to have a glowing skin that makes them look younger. People are however bound to get wrinkles as they grow old. When one is exposed to sun rays for long periods of time, the skin can be damaged leading to ageing of the skin and one developing wrinkles faster than they should. An individual may end up looking very old and they are really not too old.

The benefits of sun self tan are quite many and one should consider this method. It is however essential for a person to visit a doctor who can also advise them appropriately. This will ensure that one does not achieve a tanned skin at the cost of their health.
