To tan, or not to tan, that is the great question of summer. While some people prefer to keep their skin as white as possible, there are still a lot of people who love the healthy glow a tan creates. However, medical science has shown that laying out in the sun is not good for your skin. In fact, most doctors will tell you to use sunscreen any time you are going to be outside. Of course, this relatively new information about the damage sunlight can cause to your skin and health means you should not use tanning booths either. That pretty much puts a kink in getting a healthy glow. Or does it? Luckily, it is now possible to get the same effects, and some added benefits, as you would if you were to spend the day in the sun with airbrush tanning. Here are just a few reasons to use sunless tanning this summer.
No Sun Damage
UV rays from the sun and tanning beds have been proven to be a cause of skin cancer. This is probably the best reason to avoid a tan. In addition, your skin will age faster if exposed to the sun without sunscreen frequently. However, airbrush tanning does not need the sun.
Hide Flaws
One of the benefits of a tan is that it can hide skin flaws like blemishes and cellulite. The good news is that a properly applied spray tan can do the same things. In fact, when you go to a tanning salon that offers airbrush tanning you can talk with the technician about the results you would like. They can apply the tan product in a way that can add definition to your muscles, downplay areas that you want to hide, and give you a nicer shape.
Fast Results
Instead of laying out in the sun for a day or two, spray tanning can be done in minutes. An added bonus is that the results will be more even than a regular tan and you won't have to wait hours to see how things look. When you use a tanning booth or stay in the sun all day you often do not see the final results till that evening. This would not be good if you wanted to tan so you would look great at a special event that same day.
Don't risk your health to have a healthy glow. Contact an airbrush tanning salon and ask about their spray tanning options.
Even as a child, I was always fascinated by clothing and design. My outfits always matched, and I begged my parents to buy me the latest season's fashions as soon as they hit the store. I took some art classes to learn how to do my own design. I learned how to sew, and started making my own clothes to experiment with different fashion ideas. I decided to take all of the things that I've learned about beauty and fashion and create this blog. My hope is to inspire creativity and personal expression in others just like I've had for most of my life.
