Why Sunless Tanning Is Certainly Better Than Subjecting The Body To The Sun

By Haywood Hunter


Most people have now got the message that too much exposure to sunlight can be harmful to their health. Skin cancer is one of the biggest dangers, but it is by no means the only concern. Exposure to the sun also leads to early aging as well as spots and other unsightly marks on the skin. The problem is that so many people with light skins still crave a tan. Sporting a golden brown hide remains fashionable. The answer is to rather consider sunless tanning.

There is a myriad of products that promises a beautiful tan without the need to expose the body to the sun. Many consumers find it difficult to choose the product that will work best for them. It may be useful to visit a few of the many internet sites that provide advice on this topic. Some sites also publish detailed product reviews and many allow consumers to share their experiences with specific products.

Great care should be taken when perusing online advice. A product may work well for one person but not for another. That is because most of the available products are developed for very specific skin types. Care should also be taken to avoid the sites of manufacturers because they will inevitably be biased and promotional in nature. It is best to seek independent advice.

Consumers can also approach a skin specialist to have their skin types analyzed. Based on the result they will be better able to buy a suitable product. This can be costly, but when the consequences of skin damage are considered, it may be a wise route to take. Many salons can also provide objective and valuable advice.

Experts agree that it is not a good idea to opt for cheap products produced by unknown manufacturers. These products can cause immense damage to the skin. In addition, the results may be bizarre and the skin color can be unnatural. Consumers should therefore rather give up the idea of having a beautiful tan if they cannot afford quality products produced by reputable cosmetic manufacturers.

Even quality products may contain allergens and it is vital to check the ingredients of a product before buying it. Allergens can cause irritation and itching. If uncertain, the manufacturer should be contacted for more information. Most manufacturers advise consumers to test a new product on a small area of skin before using it. If any adverse reactions occur the product should be avoided.

It is a sad fact that many manufacturers and consumers still do not heed the needs of the environment. Nobody should ever purchase a product that has been tested on animals. If the product does not specifically state that no animal testing has been done, then that product should be shunned.

That the sun causes damage to the skin is a fact that nobody can repudiate. Many people only see the damage in later years, but then it is often too late to take action. If a tan is required, the best possible route is to get it without exposing the skin to the sun.
