By Haywood Hunter


You will find that you have a lot of different choices when you are looking at tanning lotion. Each one of these is made for different purposes so you need to know what you are looking for to avoid any possible damages to your skin. Of course you should know that the word tanning means to make one's skin darker.

Three different choices are available for you to be able to get a tan. Going outside and into the sunlight is one of these. This form actually uses UV radiation to help your skin to tan. This is something that many people are warned about today because of possible damages.

You might even find that you want to spray or rub one of the special lotions on your skin in order to get a tan. Since this is so safe it has become quite popular with everyone worrying about the harm from UV rays. The only downside is that it has to be done with care to avoid an undesired shade.



Being able to go to an indoor place to get a tan is the third option and while it is still UV rays that tan you, it is somewhat safer. Sometimes people are even sent to these by the doctor to increase their consumption of Vitamin D. While there are many health risks associated with being exposed to UV rays there are also some benefits that you are not likely to know about.

There is going to be a certain choice of the lotions that you want to use when you decide which way you are going to get a tan. This is important because each type is made to be applied for a specific choice of how to tan. It can actually cause you to have damaged skin if you pick out the wrong one but with so many this might be easier said that done.

The tree different choices in lotions are those that have sun protection with SPF which are called sunscreens, those that will help to tan the skin with out UV which are called self-tanning, and those that will help to create a more even tan which are a called enhancers. The sunscreens are made for you to be used when you are going to be outside or in direct sunlight for a long period of time. Today these are found everywhere and most cosmetic and moisturizing products have them.

If you are choosing to give yourself a tan then you will have two different ways in which it might work. One of these is that the lotion is going to actually dye your skin. The other is that it is going to use a chemical process that oxidizes protein cells, mostly melanin, in the top or outer layer of the skin.

The last choice of tanning lotion is that which will enhance your tan. These actually help your skin to be able to have more resistance to the UV rays of the sun because they build up melanin in the skin. This makes the skin darker because melanin is what gets dark when you tan with UV rays or any other choice of self-tanner.
