How Self Tanning Is A Better Alternative To Acquiring Color From The Sun

By Haywood Hunter


Being tan is something many people become obsessed with. Not only is having a tan thought to make people look better, it also helps many of them feel better about themselves. Self tanning allows anyone with skin to have the tan they have always desired, and you don't even have to wear a swimming suit.

If you happen to be a little overweight, sunless tanning can actually make you appear a bit thinner. If nothing else, self tanning can give you a healthier appearance. Little dimples and bumps in the skin show up much better on white skin than tan, but sunless tanning can make these things all but disappear. However, the best news about self tanning may be that when you choose to get a tan from a bottle, you don't have to increase your risk for cancer.

Some may find that getting a tan the normal way (by damaging the skin with UV rays) to give them the color they want, but there will be a price to pay. If it is not skin cancer, you can count on premature skin aging. Being tan is considered beautiful, but having wrinkles and leathery-looking skin is not very aesthetically pleasing. With sunless tanning, you do not need to worry about paying the price by compromising the integrity of your skin.

There has always been talk about self tanning leading to orange looking skin. However, this was more true years ago when self tanning was first being introduced. Today, most of the companies who produce self tanning products have addressed this problem.

Self tanning takes the sun out of suntanning and gives you the opportunity to tan all year long. You don't have to wait for the seasons to change and you needn't depend on the sun to shine. It is as simple as opening up your bottle and applying the lotion to every area you wish to color.

In order to get the best results from your sunless tanning experience, you may find it useful to prepare your skin before you apply the product. While showering, make sure you slough off as much dead skin as you can. This will help your skin absorb the lotion and help you avoid ending up with streaks.

If you want to be tan, but are also worried about the health of your skin, self tanning is the answer. There are virtually no negatives when it comes to using self tanning products, especially when compared to the other alternatives.
