Show Us Some Cuts

August 6th, 2010

Have you ever watched a body building competition? Most of the contestants wear skimpy suits and bikinis while posing so they can show all their muscles and their cuts. The ladies look so tan. When I was younger I naturally assumed that they stayed out in the sun. As I got older I figured that they all couldn’t be in the beach all the time. Eventually I learned that a spray tanning solution was used by most contestants because the more tanned you look, the more your muscles are defined.

A spray tanning solution is also being used on celebrities. These celebrities who frequently appear in movies in their sexy outfits always look like they had spent hours on the beach. I know now that all it takes a spray tanning solution you can buy online. This solution usually comes in the form of lotions which come in different shades of tan. You can spray them on a few days before your party.

Your friends just got home from their two week vacation in the Bahamas. You couldn’t go because of work so you just decided to stay while they frolicked in the sand and water. You know that you should be with them especially now that it’s summer. But because you just had your new car, you needed to pay your monthly balance. It’s a bummer when all your friends are gone for the summer.

And now that they are home, they invited you for lunch. The minute you walked in the restaurant, you noticed the difference. They have gorgeous tan skin. They look glowing and healthy. You are instantly envious. You wouldn’t want to stick out like a sore thumb when you go out to party with friends. That is why they gave you a spray tan solution so that you could also have the tan that they got – minus the sun.

Sunless tanning is just another way of getting the suntanned look. It may have advantages over lazing in the sun for hours but it is not an entirely risk-free procedure. Let us take a look at the methods currently being used. There are tanning lotions that are very popular and effective

Most sunless tanning lotions have dihydroxyacetone (DHA) as their active ingredient. The DHA is a colorless sugar that interacts with the dead cells located in your epidermis to give you a bronzed look. You’ll get a color changed within 5-7 days. The same chemicals are also applied using a spray. An airbrush tanning system provides streak free results and will dry in minutes. Others take tanning pills or avail of tanning bed services. Tanning tablets are not recommended by many professionals. Tanning beds may still increase the risk of skin cancer. The safest methods of skin tanning seem to be a sunless skin tanning product or a bronzer. The other option is to forego getting a skin tan altogether.

Have you heard of airbrushing? It is a process of spraying inks and dyes. Used in art and other forms of media, airbrush is also done on the skin. Compared to using brushes, airbrushing has a finer and smoother effect. And since it coats the surface smoothly, it has been used for artificial skin tanning.

Airbrush tanning provides a silky effect on skin. And it looks really natural. You don’t have to spend days under the sun to get a perfect and even color. With an airbrush tanning equipment, you will get the most believable skin color you will look like you’ve spent days in a tropical island. And because exposure to UV rays can be dangerous and damaging, airbrush tanning is a safe way to get a natural glow.

Many busy people resort to sunless tanning to get a tan instead of going to the beach. This is a safe alternative as airbrush tanning solution products contain DHA. This ingredient is FDA approved and has been used in the personal care industry for more than twenty years. According to reports, allergic reactions to airbrush tanning solutions are very rare and can usually be resolved by taking a shower.

Airbrush tan lasts approximately three to seven days. This will depend on your ability to follow a proper moisturizing regimen daily as well as a good lifestyle. An airbrush tan will fade just like a natural tan from the sun. To maximize the length of your tan, make sure you properly hydrate your skin every day.

spray tanning solution

The important elements in spray tanning are the spray equipment and the tanning solution. Modern methods for applying spray tans involve applying an exfoliant to the skin before the tanning solution. Most spray tanning solutions today consist of a tanning agent and a bronzing agent, as well as the much needed moisturizers. The bronzing agent helps you to see where you are spraying or applying the tan. The tanning agent results in a healthy and natural skin glow after a shower around four hours later.

It is obvious that the most important part of spray tanning is the spray tanning solution. The tanning agent is called DHA or Docosahexaenoic acid which is found in abundance in fish oils and throughout nature. It provides a safe and effective way to create a beautifully tanned skin. Spray tan solutions are available in different strengths and are supplied by many manufacturers who all claim that their product is the best. It is paramount to get your tanning solutions from reputable companies.
