Methods of Sunless Tanning
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.
