Achieve The Perfect Effects With Quality Tanning Spays

By Haywood Hunter


This article shall deal with most of the details of obtaining a nice tan. Laying in the sun, sprays, lotions, anything of this matter can be considered as part of the tanning subject, as this has something to do with the change of the color of the skin. More details on exactly what happens to the skin when it is exposed to the sun and how it changes from a fair color to a golden brown color or in the unfortunate case red sun burnt color.

What is sun bathing? This is when a person lays in the sun with the idea of getting the skin to go a golden brown color. This is not always achieved. If that specific person has a very fair skin and he or she is in the sun for a very long time, they might first get a little sun burnt and then gradually go to the golden brown desired color.

When you do get sunburned a little bit you should keep the skin moisturized with lotion to prevent pealing of the skin. This will also ensure that there is a biggest chance of getting the desire color the person intended when he or she went to lay is the sun. Being this color can have a lot of advantages.

The golden brown color of the skin can prevent a person form getting really bad sun burnt with blisters and it can be really very sore when this happens. The skin also looks naturally very healthy and glowing. The person that has this color skin also always looks very healthy in general and they are usually, but not always, outdoor people that love sports.

So how does the skin produce this sometimes very radical skin color change? The skin has cells called Melanocytes. These Melanocytes produces something called Melanin. You get two different types of melanin that is produced by the melanocytes. The first one that is produced is called Pheomelanin and this melanin is responsible for the red color that the skin turns when you go into the sun. The second typed of melanin that is produced by the melanocytes is called Eumelanin. This melanin is responsible for the brown color that the skin turns when a person sun baths.

It is clear that there can be radical changes in the color of your skin when you person sunbathe. How does this radical change happen? There are layers in the skin and in one of the layers, there are some cells, known as melanocytes. Melanin is produced by these melanocytes.

There are two kinds of ultra violet rays that you get. They are called ultra violet - A and ultra violet - B. The ultra violet - A is the radiation that causes an oxidative stress effect. This will oxidize the existing melanin. This effect leads to the rapid darkening of the melanin which in turn causes the golden brown color of the skin.

It is not recommended that you should stay in the sun for long periods of time. If you have a fair skin you should maybe try and be in the sun for no longer than thirty minutes at a time. This will help you do it at a gradual pace and prevent severe sun burning.
