As women we all have different skin types and our skin is very important to us, so we must take time to nurture it with a daily skincare regimen. Whether it s a variety of different products and steps in your regimen or as simple as a daily moisturizer we have become more educated and aware of the fact that the sun does in fact damage our skin and cause premature aging and serious diseases such as skin cancer. As a result of this we are now having to take precautionary measures like applying sunscreen daily before heading outdoors and even limiting our sun exposure as much as possible. Because of these serious risks many of us are giving up on tanning altogether and I am here to tell you that there is still hope. In this article I am going to share with you a variety of tanning options that are out there today besides the traditional sun bathing. Tanning options ranging from sunless tanning products or self tanners chaquetas moncler hombre , the spray tanners mystic vs. airbrush tan, and commercial tanning beds. This will give you a breakdown on what they are and do exactly so that you can figure out what is best for you and your budget. Sunless tanning products, self tanners, or tanning extenders: These home products are generally available over the counter and can give your skin a tanned look without exposing it to harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays and are commonly sold as creams, gels, lotions and sprays you apply to your skin. The active ingredient in most sunless tanning products is dihydroxyacetone (DHA). Sunless tanning products typically go on clear, and you might see results after about an hour. Full color appears within eight to 24 hours. Some products contain a tint, which darkens your skin right away. When applied to your skin, DHA reacts with dead cells in the outermost layer of skin to temporarily darken the skin s appearance. The coloring doesn t wash off chaquetas moncler outlet , but it gradually fades as the dead skin cells slough off. In most cases, the color is completely gone after five to seven days. Prices for these products range from $6 to $37. My Top 5 Sunless Tanning Products: 1. Coppertone Endless Summer Sunless Tan 2. Jergens Natural Glow 3. St. Tropez Self Tanner 4.

Bare Minerals Faux Tan Today sunless tanning products no longer leave you with an orange brown, streaky looking tan but leave you with a even, natural look if applied correctly and carefully. To achieve the best sunless tan, follow these tips I found helpful: * Choose a product that is 1 to 2 shades darker than your natural skin tone so at first your tan looks more natural. Remember you can always go darker the second time around. * Before using the product, wash and exfoliate your skin to remove excess dead skin cells. Women should shave their legs prior for an even application. * Always do a spot check to make sure the color is right and that you do not have any sensitivity to the product * Apply the sunless tanning product evenly and lightly. Use less product on dry skin or thickened skin, such as over your ankles, knees and elbows. These areas tend to absorb more product. * After you apply the product to your face and body, wash your hands immediately to avoid coloring to your palms. Be sure to remove any product from under your fingernails. Then use a cotton ball to apply the sunless tanner to the top of each hand. * To prevent staining your clothes chaquetas moncler baratas , wait to dress until the sunless tanner dries completely, about 15 to 20 minutes.
