A Guide To Using Sunless Tanning Product Offers Effectively And With Safety In Mind

By Veronica Cappelletti


Most light skinned individuals secretively or brazenly crave to have a bronzed tanned look on their skins. While this is not hard at all for those living within the tropics, the task becomes harder the more one moves into the more temperate and arctic climate areas. If you live in such places, you do not have to despair in your quest as there are now available a number of sunless tanning products that will prove good for your purposes.



One factor that you have to take care of is being certain of the safety guarantees attached to any product before using it. A good majority of the products are based on dihydroxyacetone or DHA. This chemical is proven as effective in drying the outer skin and making it acquire a bronze tone that is so reminiscent of someone who has been lying in the sun for days on end.

While the effects of DHA are desirable on the skin and have no known side effects, care needs to be taken when applying the substance. This is because the effects on the internal human body are unknown. This means one should extra cautious when application is being made on the skin especially if it is being delivered by a spray system to ensure none of the substance gets into the eyes for instance.

You should take heed in knowing that getting a tan through DHA application will not result in permanent tanning of the skin. Actually, the effect wears off after no more than a few days. This means that if you are not impressed by the result, you have no choice but to wait a couple of days before the skin returns to its normal tone. Taking a shower will have no effect at all on the result.

To achieve a good effect, it may be necessary to prepare the skin a few days prior to the application. This is usually done through a process called exfoliation. A number of products that help in keeping your skin moisturized over a period of time are handy in this respect. One then has to shower thoroughly with a good amount of scrubbing in order to ensure that all the dead cells are washed off.

The skin is a sensitive organ of the body and has a protective role in ensuring one is healthy all round. If you aspire to have a tanned look that will earn you admiring glances, there is every reason to be hopeful. A number of sunless tanning product offers are available and their effects are genuinely convincing.
