Solutions To The Dangerous Ramifications Of Natural Tanning That Still Provide A Sun Kissed Glow

By Haywood Hunter


While sunbathing has been around for what seems like forever, it simply cannot continue to be a normal part of life because it comes with its own set of serious problems. Alternatively, the natural son can also bring the all-important vitamin D. This vitamin is absolutely necessary for overall good health, and being deficient can bring on numerous health problems. Thankfully, there are solutions with regards to tanning, and how to get that natural glow without the dangers.

One of the best things to do is practice prevention. That doesn't mean avoiding the sun altogether. Instead, it means being cautious. In truth, only 15 minutes of sunbathing is required to absorb the amount of vitamin D necessary for good health. Anything more than that could be harmful to one's health.

As such, people should be more aware of what they can and can't do to protect themselves from the harmful UV rays of the sun. The first thing is to avoid going out for long periods of time when the UV Index is high. Next, where a hat with a thick rim to protect the head, the ears and the face from overexposure to the sun's rays.

Forget about laying about all day, soaking in coconut oil to achieve the darkest tan. Doing so is like rolling the dice, as it comes with great risk of developing skin cancer. It's all over the news how this form of cancer is continuously on the rise.

In addition to all of the above, overexposure to the sun damages the skin. It is one of the major culprits of premature aging that begins with the formation of fine lines, which developed into wrinkles. Furthermore, freckles are also developed, as are age spots. The sun kissed glow is something that most people want because they end up looking healthier and more attractive.

Thankfully, there are solutions that exist, so people can get the best of both worlds while remaining safe. For starters, there are available lotions that are applied directly onto the skin, and in time develop a darker tone. The better ones go on without any streaks, developing gradually for a more natural tan.

Another solution is to spray tan. It is popular, effective, and safe. Many use it throughout the year, although more so during the summer months. Special lights are incorporated in beds to also provide that a healthy glow. Unfortunately, many of these are made with less than favorable light that could cause a lot of damage.

Such equipment should undoubtedly be avoided to protect the skin from premature aging and to protect against the development of skin cancer. Aside from that, people should still get out and enjoy the outdoors by wearing some protective clothing, and of course, sunscreen only after they have gotten their dose of vitamin D. All this of course must be done at times when the sun is not at its peak.
