Knowing The Reasons To Get A Spray Fake Tan

By Haywood Hunter


Getting a spray fake tan is considered as a safer alternative to sunbathing or using a tanning bed. Most professional tanning salons have booths dispensing a fine mist of a sugar-based chemical. There are also cheaper at-home solutions available.

What makes the spray fake tan possible is the use of a chemical derived from plants, most of the time sugar cane. Approved by the U. S. FDA for topical application, it is called dihydroxyacetone or DHA. This is the main ingredient in the solution sprayed onto the skin of anyone who wants to enjoy a darker complexion minus the sun. When DHA comes into contact with the skin, in particular the top layer comprised of dead cells, the chemical gets darker in color within a few hours.

Going for a spray fake tan has some benefits to it, whether it is done at a professional tanning salon or at home. Perhaps the most noteworthy of all is the prevention of being exposed to excessive UV rays the sun emits. They are not good for the health as experts consider them as a form of carcinogens. In other words, too much of them can give you skin cancer.

Many choose to get the spray fake tan over lying down inside a tanning bed. The lamps found within this equipment emit UV rays too, just like the sun. Although the amount of such radiation is reduced, still the health is placed in some form of danger. On the other hand, the spray fake tan can give you a sun-kissed glow without exposure to UV rays.

Opting for a spray fake tan also spares you from ending up with unsightly aging signs. Often, these cosmetic issues are caused by having too much sun. You don't have to develop liver spots and wrinkles just to have a bronzed complexion.

Many consider spray fake tan as something that can produce a more natural-looking effect than the lotion varieties. Because the solution which contains DHA is delivered in the form of a fine mist, an even color can be achieved. On the other hand, especially when improperly applied, lotions may produce streaks and patches. Also, the palms used during application may end up stained.

Spray fake tan is being offered at most professional tanning salons these days. You need to step foot inside a booth in which you will be sprayed with a solution containing DHA. There are also alternative products which may be used at home. The sugar-based chemical is housed in an aerosol can so that it may be applied on the skin in the form of a fine mist.
