How To Promote Sunless Tanning Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


There are several products on the market that give very elegant tanning effects when used correctly. It should however be known that it takes some great deal of knowledge to choose the right product. The right information about skin type, application procedures and content of the product is important when in need of a good choice. This article has good information on how to choose a good sunless tanning lotion for any skin type.

Knowing the skin type should be the first thing to do. Human skins can be placed into three major categories, though each type may have sub-divisions. The three types are dark, fair, and medium or olive. Since fair skins burn when subjected to solar radiation, people with type of skin should not use sun beds and the sun. Medium-skinned however can use radiation because their skin tans. Dark skin type however cannot burn, but also it does not tan.

Tanning products fall under five main groups, that is, tingle, bronzers, moisturizers, facial tanners, and accelerators. Each group of products needs varied time frames to give different results. Although they may all attain similar outcomes, the working varies may vary a lot. Skin type should be the consideration when choosing a product because ingredients and their level of concentration differs in various products.

The concentration of a lotion is measured according to the amount of DHA and erythulose it contains. DHA and erythulose are the ones that cause tanning and are the key active ingredients in most lotions. They do this by reacting with amino acid in dead epidermal cells. Low concentration products should be the choice for fair-skinned people because high concentrations also cause burning.

Lotions that contain moisturizers keep the skin smooth and moist. Moisturizers are important additives because moisture eases and accelerates tanning in skin. There are two kinds of bronzers, which are both very important. One is gradual while the other one is immediate. In immediate bronzers skin darkening effect happens immediately the substance gets applied whereas in gradual bronzers time must be given for the tan to develop. The urgency with which one needs the tan should determined the choice between gradual and immediate bronzers.

Many individuals fear tingle, although it is able to give elegant results when applied in the right way. First, it causes reddening and a great feeling of irritation on the skin. It causes the skin to look horrible while the irritation is very uncomfortable, but when it stops, it leaves behind a beautiful tan. First timers are advised to apply tingle on their first application. Tingle builds the initial tan which can then be sustained through frequent application of other products.

Beginners should also consider accelerators. Maximizers and accelerators that are made from aloe formulas help in improving ability of skin to heal and also decrease the rate of aging in skin. Tan formation is also boosted. All products have the ingredients they are made of written on the container.

The effect of most products fades away over time because dead cells in the epidermal layer keep sloughing off every day. The tan only forms in the uppermost skin layer and when the cells that make the layer slough off, the color change fades away. This is the reason why the lotion should be reapplied frequently if one intends to keep the tan.
