More About The Particular Make-Up Of Tanning Bed Lotions

By Haywood Hunter


Many people wishing to get rid of their pale and washed-out skin appearance are taking advantage of tanning beds. These beds are well built and comfortable to use. In spas and other places, special tanning bed lotions are used to assure an all-over beautiful tan color.

These devices produce the tan by the use of ultraviolet radiation (UVA), which is also found in the sun's rays. Fluorescent lamps are used for this purpose. There are also shields made of acrylics in the beds for protection. Regular outdoor creams cannot be used in this process, as they will damage the shields.

The Federal Food and Drug Administration that regulates these beds, requires warning labels, eye protection, and lamp compliance when in use. Many states also have laws in place regulating the operation of these devices. This would include things such as training operators, sterilization of the beds, additional labels, and so forth.

The lotion used in this process is not the same as the lotion purchased at the corner drug store. There are ingredients in these special products that speed up the bronzing process. Some of the brands cause a 'tingling' in the skin. This brings the blood to the surface and increases the amount of tan obtained.

Another ingredient that is added to many of these special creams is called bronzer, also known as DHA. This is a chemical derived from glycerin, which brings about a brown color by interacting with amino acids in the skin. The ones used may be 'Hot Bronzers', which cause tingling, or 'Cool Bronzers', which contain menthol.

Other ingredients that are found in various types of tanning bed lotions include copper, tea oil, melanin, L-Tyrrosine, green tree extract, and other natural oils. Obviously, not all brands are the same. Using this process to obtain a tan tends to dehydrate the skin, so all brands have moisturizing elements, the most popular of which is hempseed oil.
