Components In Best Sunless Suntan Products

By Haywood Hunter


Sunless suntan is a technique of acquiring a darker skin complexion without exposing the skin to UV beams from the sun or through artificial ways. There are a number of products in form of lotions, creams, gels, and sprays that could be utilized to attain desired effects. These commodities are safer, cheaper, and are an alternative to sunbathing or visiting a tanning salon.



Sunless suntan products came in use after the scientific discovery of the linkage between excessive exposure to ultraviolet rays and skin cancer. Sunless suntan products should be used to achieve a tanned skin without sun exposure. This helps to eliminate any chances of being attacked by the deadly skin cancer.

These products can be applied at home by those who know how to do so. The ideal way is to be expertly airbrushed possibly in a well aerated room as opposed to spray tan booths. Just like all cosmetic preparations, sunless suntan products should never be inhaled, allowed to get into the eyes or applied under nails. A well done airbrushed sunless suntan can look natural and fabulous.



Uniform application of sunless suntan is very crucial especially when attainment of a naturally appearing tan is needed. Sunless suntan products normally appear with printed markers that indicate different application methods to aid one achieve the best possible results. One may ask for assistance during application so that all body parts especially the back are accessed properly. Home-application is cheaper when compared to going to a salon.

Sunless suntan naturally can last for five to seven days because dead skin cells are continuously sloughed off. This is always the case despite the fact that the sunless suntan may be sun-assisted and/or makeup orientated. An elegant sunless suntan product must contain the active constituent called dihydroxyacetone in its composition. This ingredient is abbreviated as DHA.

Dihydroxyacetone refers to a colorless solution naturally derived from glycerin and it functions by reacting with the amino acid in dead cells on the skin. It does not get absorbed into human bodies through skin and contains no known toxic chemicals. Sunscreen creams are still needed to protect the skin from dangerous UV beams from the sun after applying sunless suntan.

Sunless suntan products are not produced in the same way. This reason makes it crucial for one to find out the most used brands. One should spend enough time on research before settling on any given brand. Looking good can be both expensive and demanding. One should spend some time on the internet to learn of the availability of the affordable products in online stores.

Newly introduced products in the market have new incorporated features like better smell and anti aging benefits. These products aim at overcoming flaws such as runny solutions that make it difficult to get an even tan and chemical smell after application. They have a fragrant scent unlike the strong chemical scents, which is a major feature of the old-fashion sunless suntan products. The products provide clients with the alternative of an instant bronze look that can be done away with using warm water and soap.
