Spray on tans , an introduction
We all know now that sun exposure is harmful for the skin unless we wear a very powerful sunscreen. But with an advanced sunscreen lotion, tanning becomes almost impossible, and tanned skin is fashionable. Such skin coloring solutions are indeed smart, innovative and very profitable for those who run a business in the cosmetic industry. The browning of the skin thus becomes the result of a chemical reaction at the skin level, that cannot be properly defined as pigmentation. The color wears off in six or eight days, with the possibility to extend the tan to ten days if a post tanning treatment is used.
A good fake spray tan will create an even skin look that resembles the natural tan glow. But not all products enjoy the same reliability. We may call them tan sprays but they could be low quality and a risk for one’s health. Experts advise users to be very careful with the sunless tanning products they buy because low quality merchandise as in fake spray tan items could cause contact dermatitis and other skin problems such as allergies, irritations and excessive dryness.
Although generally safe, a fake spray tan solution could be a bad choice under certain circumstances. People who have sensitive dry skin should be very cautious with the use of sunless tanners. Maybe they don’t trigger an allergic reaction but they could aggravate the dryness of the skin. And even if many of the tanning agents are combined with moisturizers these are not always enough for dry skin hydration. Moreover, anyone who suffers from skin dryness knows how hard it is to choose a good moisturizer, which is why the choice of a fake spray tan will be all the more difficult.
Constant users of fake spray tan should settle for a certain beauty center or spa and follow the tanning treatment regularly on the location. Even if the tanning substances are believed to be risk free and non toxic, you should make pauses between consecutive applications. This will prevent any possible dysfunction at the skin level and will preserve the great look.
