Tanning The
Natural Way
by: Caryl B. Grecia
This is a call to everybody. Save
your skin, now before it’s too late! Having a tan makes you look
more healthy and gorgeous. But how do you do it without bad
consequences?
There are a lot of people who would
like to have golden brown skin. It is not a new sight when people go
to the beach to lie almost naked under the sun just to have an equal
tan. But, it is not so safe to do just that because of the super
harmful UV rays. Instead of getting only a perfectly golden skin, one
might suffer a serious case of skin cancer later, too.
There are plenty of options in
tanning today. More modern ways are undergoing medical treatment to
acquire a sun-less tan. However, there are still some modern
techniques that use radiation powered machines to tan the skin. And
radiation is also bad to the health.
There are more techniques that could
give a person a perfect tan. But most of them cost so much because
they are highly specialized techniques and reduces (or even
eliminates) usage of radiation or UV rays. But to an average person
who desires to have a golden skin, it would not be very practical to
pay so much to have the desired healthy golden skin.
There are ways to achieve a perfect
tan without exposing yourself to the sun and spending so much on skin
clinics. There are ready-to-use products that are safe to use and are
inexpensive compared to the services offered in skin clinics.
Here are some tips for a safe,
sunless and costless tanning right in your homes. Remember that before
applying those sunless tanners, the body must first be thoroughly
cleaned and exfoliated by using loofah or soft cloth to wash off dust
and dead skin cells. This way, even tan will surely be achieved. Use
moderate amount on knees, elbows and other parts with thick, dry skin,
as they will appear darker. Use a sponge paintbrush, about two to
three inches in size, in applying tanner on the back. When applying in
the face, avoid spreading in and around the eyes. After application,
immediately wash hands thoroughly with soap and water. Use a make-up
wedge when applying at the backs of your hands in smooth even strokes
as well as on your feet and between the toes. Apply the tanner using
both horizontal and vertical strokes or circular motion.
When using a spray tanner, avoid
saturating it. Instead, spray and blend quickly and thoroughly over
one body part then do the same to the rest of the body. After making
sure the tanner is applied evenly, wait for about one hour before
applying any moisturizer or foundation or going swimming/bathing.
Also, avoid contact with carpets, fabrics, clothing, and furniture. If
necessary, and for a deeper tan, repeat process.
A very important reminder for you:
Stay away from the sun from 10:00 in the morning to 3:00 in the
afternoon. That is when the sun is most harmful. Remember that wanting
a beautiful skin is not merely an act of vanity. Taking care of your
skin is also taking care of your health. Protecting it from the sun is
the most important gift you could give your skin. Have a beautiful and
safe tan just right in your home without spending so much.
