Using Self Tanning Kits For A Healthier Summer Tan

By Haywood Raptis


There was a time when people would spend days in the sun to develop a golden tan. Others might use regular sessions in a booth. Unfortunately, these methods have been shown to have adverse effects on one's health. Too may UV rays can age the skin and may lead to skin cancer. Self tanning kits offer a better solution to this problem.

Self Tanning Kits are formulated for a light, medium or dark tan. Self Tanning Kits should be selected by choosing a shade appropriate for one's own skin tones. Fair completed individuals who have significant problems in tanning should choose the light product. Those who have a darker complexion, should choose a darker product. Many manufactures are offering some in between tones for those who have difficult matching one of the other three. One may need to apply several different products to find the best for his or her circumstances.

While more expensive than the gels and lotions, the airbrush Self Tanning Kits are one of the most popular. These Self Tanning Kits include an airgun that is used to spray the color on your body. If a consumer finds this process too intimidating to do for himself, it is also possible to have the spray done in a salon. Buying this product for yourself and learning the appropriate way to apply it will save money in the end. Airbrushing gives the most natural looking tan.

Most of these Self Tanning Kits do not provide protection from the damage caused by the sun. Even though a person has a beautiful tan, he or she will still need a good sunscreen for protection from the UV rays. A bad sunburn can cause the skin to peal and ruin the effect of the spray tan. When the skin peels, the product will be lost.

DHA is the active ingredient in all these Self Tanning Kits. It causes the skin's pigments to darken to a tan that looks like it was caused by the sun. For the most natural look the product should be applied evenly.

Application of the product can occur in several different ways. The consumer may develop his or her own preference for how to apply the solution. Lotions and creams have been around the longest. The product can also be found in moist towelettes and sprays. The sprays are easier to apply to hard to reach areas.

No matter what one chooses, it helps to have a partner apply the product to ensure an even coating for a better result. Be sure to read and follow the directions for the product before it is used. There may be warnings about waiting times before a shower or hopping into a swimming pool.

When shopping for the right Self Tanning Kits, consumers often need to try more than one product. These products can transform your body to a beautiful golden tan without damaging the skin or increasing the risk of skin cancer. Self Tanning Kits can have you ready for the beach in a short time.
