subject: Reasons To Choose An Organic Spray On Tan [print this page] We all know the dangers of tanning and tanning beds, which is why spray tans were invented. However, the usual sprays used in these booths can be very bad for you. They are made from chemicals that just shouldn't be on your skin. Instead, opt for a salon that offers an organic spray on tan.
Those who take their health seriously will probably want to avoid using toxic sprays. These can be applied to skin, but the fact of the matter is that they get absorbed and can cause health issues. Regular tanning sprays are just not that safe, especially when you use them over and over again. They may be better than UV tanning, but they are still not safe.
Going organic will help keep skin smooth and healthy while giving you a great bronzed look. The most common type of tanning solution is made from sugar. It may be combined with aloe which will help moisturize skin and green tea to help cleanse it.
Right after leaving the salon, you'll have a nice color, but it won't be anything like you will have later on. The tan takes time to develop and can be much darker after a 24 hour period. It's always possible to do another round of spray if you need a darker look. It's best to pick a lighter shade until you know how your skin will react.
Pick organic sprays instead of the regular ones. These are the safest method of darkening skin and there are several colors available so it's possible to get exactly the tone you want. Remember that the color will deepen over time, so if it's not as dark as you like when you leave the salon, it can still turn darker. Stick to lighter options if you aren't sure how the tan will look on you.
You can protect your tan by using moisturizers twice a day and being being careful not to over exfoliate. Once a week should be fine for exfoliation. If you peel too often, the dye that is in the upper layers of skin will also be removed faster. Skip soaps that come in bars, as well as anything containing salicylic acid or the like.
You may wish to look great, but keep in mind that it's important to be healthy, as well. Avoid toxins in the usual tanning spritzes and instead look for salons which do an organic spray on tan. You'll feel better and your body will stay toxin free.
