A Brief Overview Of Tanning Lotion Reviews



By Haywood Hunter


Being bronzed and tan is a common desire, but more and more research shows that achieving this the natural way is dangerous to your health and damaging to your appearance. Getting too much sun can cause skin cancer, wrinkles, and a lot of other things in between. People often turn to tanning lotion reviews to choose the right alternative to too much sun.

In previous days, sunless tanners were ridiculed. After all, it was easy enough to get the real thing, and people didn't know about the harmful side effects, yet. Now, they are pushed as a much healthier way to get that bronzed look that people want. Of course, application and choice of type makes a big difference in whether the final results look natural or not.

For the person who doesn't want anyone to know that they are using a sunless tanner, there are even varieties that will darken your skin a little at a time over a period of days. This mimics the natural process that occurs when out in the sun, and allows people to hide what they are doing from everyone. However, using a sunless tanner is not the stigma that it used to be.

A sunless tanner needs to be maintained - unlike a natural tan, it will fade quickly if you do not do regular maintenance. A tan obtained in the sun will last several weeks or months, while one out of a bottle typically lasts four to six days before starting to fade. This is because these products rely on dying the outermost skin cells, which slough off at about this rate.

All sunless tanners use essentially the same ingredients, which are safe but somewhat smelly. They can be applied in lower or higher doses, which correlates to gradual or instant products. They can also be applied as a spray, lotion, or gel. Some come on towelettes, which can be rubbed across the skin.

Most people prefer the gradual type of tanner, because it isn't such a shock when they look in the mirror and makes it easier to avoid streaks. Since you have to apply it every day for a few days in order to see results, there is less chance that you will miss somewhere on your body entirely. If you want to maintain your shade for a while, use a daily lotion with a little tanner mixed in for minimum effort.

Tanners all use essentially the same ingredient, which means that they all smell essentially the same before whatever fragrance is added. This smell can be stronger or weaker depending on the product, and experts suggest that you give the 'sniff-test' to any product you are considering before buying it, because some or all products may smell intolerable to certain people.

The right shade is not always easy to find, either. Tanning lotion reviews caution that there is a need for trial and error in most cases, which means using a new product on an out of the way body part to see how it turns out, before slathering your whole body in it. This will ensure the final result is flattering and natural-looking.
