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.
