What can go wrong with a tanning lotion?
Posted by Brown Dexter on December 30th, 2020
You know that an exceptional tanning lotion for a tanning bed is essential. You should not tan without one. But why not? And what are the things that can go wrong with your tan if you don’t have the best tanning lotion?
Why use a tanning lotion?
One of the reasons to use tanning lotion is that it is very pleasant. Tanning lotion is warm and comforting. Some of it even tingles and energizes the skin. And it smells great and makes your skin smell great, too. Those are all the aesthetic reasons to use a tanning lotion, but tanning lotions are also great for the tan and good for your skin.
Tanning lotion has built-in moisturizer, which is very nice in tanning beds. Tanning can dry the skin out, and without a tanning lotion, your tan might be uneven. The lotion spreads the moisture through your skin, making it feel great during the tanning bed session and for some time afterwards. In fact, the tanning lotion will improve anyone’s mood by increasing the desire to enter the bed where they can feel those warm rays of the sun on the skin.
It does more than moisturize.
It may seem that the tanning lotion is only there for its great smell, but it does more. It improves the tan, too, by providing a melanin stimulator to bring out the healing benefits of the sun. Vitamin D is essential to health, but too much sun can burn the skin, and harmful UV rays can cause cancer. A tanning bed and coconut oil combination feels like an afternoon at the beach, and it has the same health benefits, but it also has the same detrimental effects. A tanning lotion for a tanning bed protects your skin from the sun while bringing out the bed’s healing qualities—and that great tan.
You have a great tanning lotion, so what can go wrong?
Be careful that the tanning lotion doesn’t stain clothing. Some of it can do that, especially the very dark ones. It is wise to be aware of the ingredients the lotion is made of. They should contain moisturizers as well as vitamins, essential oils, and antioxidants for the best health of the skin. But you don’t want your skin to feel dyed, or stained. Also, don’t use a lotion that is not safe for the bed itself. Some of the cheaper lotions and outdoor tanning lotions have chemicals that can harm the vinyl of the bed.
There is no reason not to use a tanning lotion; it will only be a benefit to you and your tan. If you don’t use a tanning lotion, skin may burn and dry out, just as it might in the sun. The lotion can also improve the speed of the tan, and it can reduce the amount of time you need to spend in the tanning bed itself.
Just put the best tanning lotion on your skin and enjoy the feeling. Be patient; let the lotion do its work for you.
