What You Need To Know About Sun Self Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


Products that are tanning the skin without sun exposure have been created to reduce the negative effects that can be caused by UVA and UVB rays. Therefore a sun self tanning lotion can be used with success to obtain a beautiful tanned skin, in short time. As these products are available no matter the period of the year, why not to use them to have a beautiful tanned color all the time.

Nowadays there is a large availability of products and their quality and availability has improved over the years. Coppertone was the first manufacturer to produce a sun self tanning lotion in 1960. The product was named QT (Quick Tanning Lotion), in order to offer buyers information about its scope of use and utility. Products available now on the market can be found as bronzers, pills or self-tanners. Their majority will show results in short time, from few minutes to few hours time.

It was demonstrated by the American Academy of Dermatology that the sun self tanning lotion with highest efficiency are those containing dihydroxyacetone (DHA). This substance from the sun self tanning lotion is in fact a colorless sugar that interacts with the skin's dead cells, changing their color. But as million of cells are being removed from the skin surface every day, this requires for the sun self tanning lotion to be applied often, for a continuous result.

There is a large availability of products containing DHA. No matter if gel, cream or spray, products with DHA are created to have the same effect. An accelerator of the sun self tanning lotion process is the tyrosine, and this can be found in some products created especially with this purpose. Accelerators usually contain tyrosine, which stimulates and increase the melanin formation.

A sun self tanning lotion is the bronzer that is acting not only coloring the skin, but moisturizing it at the same time. An important detail to know about this product is that it can be removed easily, with a simple washing. The bronzer is more a make-up product, therefore will resist only until it will be washed off.

In order to obtain a good result, before applying the sun self tanning lotion, the skin should be exfoliated for a few days before. A shed skin will allow the product to enter into effect faster. If the skin is prepared before with a moisturizer, this can assure a uniform color for all body areas. Not to apply the sun self tanning lotion in a steamy bathroom is also important to remember, as this can melt, causing streaks.

Self tanning lotions can take more time to dry than the foam; if extra time is needed the lotion should be used. The application should be made with attention, in order not to leave uncovered areas, or darker spots. If the tanner is mixed with a moisturizer, the result can be more natural.

The utilization of a sun self tanning lotion will not offer protection in front of sunlight. Even if some of these products are containing a quantity of sunscreen, the protection obtained is not very high. Therefore only a special sun self tanning lotion can protect from the damaging sun rays.
