Top 4 Sunless Tanning Methods
Tanning products, both sunless and sun, go to work on the epidermis, or the outside layer of your skin, and not the dermis or inner layer. However, the layer of epidermis that is affected by sunless versus the layer affected by sun tanning products differs. Sun tanning lotions, sprays, gels and other assorted items, go to work on the stratum basale or deepest layer. And sunless tanning items go to work on the stratum corneum or outermost layer. Method 1 - Sunless Bronzers Some sunless tanning products come in the form ofmoisturizers (as lotions and crèmes) and powders and are referred to as bronzers. Basically you simply apply these to your skin as you would make up products for a temporary "tan"appearance, similar to the effects of applied makeup leaving a "tint." Then you just wash the bronzers off with soap and water; the "tan is removed with washing. Caution is needed so that the products do not stain clothing or other fabric. Andcare needs to be taken so that the applications do not streakor run when wet, similar to the results of mascara running. And finally, make sure that if you wear these products outdoors, they contain sunscreen in the ingredients;otherwise wear protective clothing, eyewear, etc. Method 2 - Sunless Tanning Booths Sunless tanning booths are becoming more popular. With anair compressor and an airbrush delivery system in one of these booths, skin receives a "tan." What happens is that pistons in the compressor quickly press or force air out via anozzle in an airbrush or spray head. This air mixes with a tanning solution containing DHA that's inside compartments withinthe airbrush, and sprays this in a fine mist over the outerskin layer. Some tanning booths have up to 36 of these airbrushes connected to the compressor and they are all either infixed positions or moving. Thus tanning clients then either move under fixed sprayers so that skin is covered all over. Or else the tanner parts move to spray the different body parts (these types pose more mechanical maintenance issues though.) Method 3 - Tanning Accelerators For a speedier tan, you might elect to try a tanningaccelerator. Generally sold as lotions or pills, these products list anamino acid called tyrosine in with the ingredients. This aminoacid is reported (but not proven) by some users to increase the production of melanin, speeding up the tanning process. Again, these are not FDA-approved solutions or drugs. Method 4 - Tanning Lamps Tanning lamps, unfortunately, can have the same bad effects on the body as direct sunlight. The equipment emits UV rays that are just as damaging as the sun's. Some measures to take towards safety when using this type of equipment are closely monitor sessions, keeping to the minimum number and timed lengths that are recommended, don't book sessions closer than every-other day, ALWAYS wear recommended safety eyewear, follow safety and other directions that come with the equipment or are (or should be) posted near it, and do place some sort of protection like a thin piece of acrylic between your body and tanning lamps. (Check for this possibility with booths, too, by asking the host or reading the equipment's instruction booklet). In conclusion, when looking for a tanning solution, check out the variety of products available. Sunless-tanning products offer safer tanning and many choices of forms and formulas for everyone across the board from young toold. And sunscreen products are definitely needed outdoors andalso come in a variety of choices for everyone. So be prepared. Be safe. And have fun in the sun!
