Tanning Lotion Benefits

By Will Edison

Many of the benefits that derived from using a self-tanner is it's aversion to the risks of other alternatives. Primarily, tanning lotions are the safest since they work by sugars interacting with dead skin cells to change the skin cells' coloration. While some people may experience contact dermatitis, which is just an irritation as result of an allergic reaction, there is much less harm to changing the coloration of your dead skin cells than trying to force blood flow to the skin to induce melanin production as with other self-tanning methods.

Natural tanning through sun bathing became a less ideal way to go since it can take a long time, creates uneven tans and tan lines. But those are just inconveniences and the health risks are the real reasons to avoid prolonged sun bathing. Too much time in direct sun can cause heat stroke.
Over exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays is one of the leading causes of skin cancer. Regular sun bathers and tanning booth goers much regularly check for unusual skin spots that may be signs of skin problems. Tanning booths offer the same risks as sun bathing but since it's a controlled environment, the risks of over exposure can be mitigated.

Other self tanning products include a tanning pill that contains a chemical used as a color additive in foods. While the FDA considers it safe in small quantities such as food coloring, it is not FDA approved for use as a tanning agent. Serious side effects of consuming such high levels of this chemical is known to cause hepatitis and canthaxanthin retinopathy, a condition in which yellow deposits form in the retina of the eye, as well as damage to the digestive system and skin.

Bronzers are another form of self-tanning products that are much safer than tanning pills. They come in powders, gels, or moisturizers and work much the same as make up. It temporarily stains the skin with color and like make up; it will come off after a shower. Bronzers will work for one day applications. Some have limited sweat or water resistance, and can rub-off to lightly color tight clothing.

In the works is a synthetic melanocyte-stimulating hormone that activates the melanin production in your skin to create the pigmentation that occurs naturally from ultraviolet radiation. It's being developed by a company in Australia.

Tanning lotion is based on dihydroxyacetone (DHA) that reacts with the dead skin cells. DHA based Sunless tanning has been recommended by the Skin Cancer Organization, American Academy of Dermatology, Canadian Dermatology Association, The American Cancer Society and the American Medical Association.
