How to choose a tanning cream in a solarium
You can save money and not buy an artificial beach product, but if you don't use the same cream, you will not protect your skin from moisture loss. Moreover, after the procedure, you will feel how your body skin has become dry and tight.
When choosing a cream, one should be guided not so much by the price of the product as by the composition, which should contain useful components with the function of neutralizing or reducing the negative effects of ultraviolet rays. Ideally, several tanning products should be purchased, since the skin of the face, for example, is more delicate and demanding to care for than the stratum corneum of the legs. If a cream for the face, neck and décolleté should consist of components that gently protect the epidermis and do not clog the pores, then these requirements are not necessary for body products. Legs tan more slowly, and the skin there is not so sensitive, so there is a need to purchase a tan enhancement. At best, products for the face and body should be from the same series, otherwise there is a risk of getting different shades of tanning on different areas of the body.
When choosing a cream to protect your skin from exposure to ultraviolet lamps, do not forget to consider your age. For young girls, a regular cream with the function of moisturizing the epidermis is suitable, as for mature women, more expensive products containing assets that not only moisturize, but also tighten, nourish and fight free radicals are suitable for them.
Many women take care of their skin only after sunburn, but in order to maintain a healthy appearance of the skin, it is necessary to start the care already before visiting the solarium.
First, take a shower to cleanse your skin of cosmetics, especially creams and perfumes, which can leave dark spots after tanning due to their photosensitizing properties. To evenly distribute the tan over the body and face, it is recommended to use the peeling procedure. Special creams help speed up the production of melanin. Apply the product in an even layer just before the procedure. If you have fair skin and tend to burn, the layer of cream should be thicker.
Why use a cream after a tanning bed
If you decide to get a beautiful, even tan, be sure to apply moisturizing and nourishing cosmetic products to your body and face after tanning. The cream helps to strengthen the effect and saturates the skin with various beneficial elements. It is very important that the composition of the product contains substances that do not allow the skin to dry out and be tightened. These include oils, including grape seed oil, argan oil, avocado oil, and glycerin. A good choice for vitamin E, an antioxidant that fights aging. Apply after sun cream 10-15 minutes after tanning, when the skin has calmed down a little.
If you decide to take a shower after the tanning bed, use a shower gel with soothing and cooling agents, such as mint extract, chamomile, sage, bisabolol, menthol. If before the tanning bed it is possible and even recommended to use soft scrubs, then after the tanning procedure, peeling, as well as products containing soap, can irritate the skin and even eliminate the layer of cells with melanin.

Using a bronzer for a tanning bed
Bronzer cream is widely used during the artificial tanning procedure. This tool helps to get the desired skin tone in a short time, while you do not have to worry about the negative effects of ultraviolet rays from the lamps, since the cream also contains protective substances that protect the skin from free radicals.
Bronzers are components that change skin tone immediately after application. Unfortunately, this liquid consistency cosmetic product stains clothes. There is also an autobronzer, a solution of dihydroxyacetone, when in contact with the proteins of the stratum corneum, it makes the skin layer visually darker. This effect is washed off very quickly. The chocolate shade disappears after 3-7 days.
In tanning creams, you can find bronzers of natural and synthetic origin, which, under the influence of ultraviolet radiation, give the tan the desired shade. If you order a cream with natural coloring elements, you will surely come across a product with various combinations of henna, walnut oil, carotene, walnut shell extract. By the way, the more bronzing ingredients, the darker and more intense the tan will be. But here it is worth mentioning the fact that a large number of these components can provoke the appearance of dark spots on the body or face. To prevent this from happening, choose creams from only good manufacturers.
