Instant Tan Spray And Things To Think About

By Haywwod Hunter


Depending on the culture, most people like having a bit of color. But it is widely known that laying out in the sun with the UV rays hitting the body is not the best for ones overall health. One of the options though is going and getting an instant tan spray. For those that are not sure if this is the right way to go, here are a few pros and cons that might help make that decision.



As mentioned before, by going to a salon and getting a tan by standing in a booth, one can avoid the damage that comes from the harsh UV rays when laying out under the direct sun or in a tanning bed. The color is applied evenly as well, unlike the blotches of sun burnt that so often many fall victim too every summer. Because the skin cells are not being damaged, it also keeps skin looking healthy longer rather than the leathery look that appears when one is out in the sun too often and for too long.

Another major advantage of going the this route is that one can walk in pasty and walk out with beautiful color. More often than not, a large majority love instant gratification, and that is exactly what this is. If there is an upcoming party, wedding, or outing, this is a quick and easy solution to getting tan.



Like so many things in life, there is also a down side. The chemical that is used in the spray is called dihdroxyacetone, DHA. This is only applied to the surface of the skin and has been FDA approved. But be weary. There may still be side effects and reactions. It might be a good idea to check in with the doctor first and see what he or she has to say about this. By getting it in the eyes, on the lips, or accidentally inhaled, there may be reactions.

Because this chemical is only on the surface of the skin though, it sheds off with the dead skin cells making it necessary to get this done every few days if one wants to retain the color. For those that exfoliate on a daily basis, the life span of the color might even be shortened more. Still though, it will last longer than what the tinted lotions do. Depending on if a professional does this or if it is done in a booth, it can be an expensive upkeep and not much of an investment.

Spray tan can unfortunately also stain clothes, hands, hair, bed sheets, and other things it comes in contact with soon after applied. It is best to wait at least twenty-minutes after application before putting on clean clothes, but wash hands right away after getting stained.

It is important to remember though, that this temporary tan does not provide any type of protection from the UV rays. So when going outside, it is still necessary to have some type of sun protection, whether that be sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, or all three.

The instant tan spray is not for everyone, but may be the answer for others. It really depends on how important it is to be tan, and at what cost, both financially and health wise. Write down the pros and cons, and go from there. Best of luck and enjoy the weather.
