TOPS TIPS TO GET THE PERFECT TAN ON A SUNBED

1. Always ask advice from your tanning salon on how long a session you should do. It varies from pale to sallow skin. Do not be tempted to exceed the recommended times or frequent the tanning salon too often in the mistaken belief that more time on the sunbed will automatically lead to a deeper tan. You are harming your skin’s ability to tan. Overexposure to UV can actually cause depletion of melanin levels and make it more difficult to tan in future sessions.
2. As a rule, someone with low melanin levels in their skin should limit their session to a maximum of 6 minutes. People with an 'olive' complexion can extend this time to a max of 12minutes.
3. The sessions should be limited to 3 times a week or less, and once you have achieved the depth of tan you desire cut down your visits so that you are only visiting the tanning salon often enough to maintain the tan.
4. Tanning lotion is an essential part of the tanning experience. Tanning lotion can minimise your sessions as they usually contain Tyrosine, which encourages the skin to produce melanin more quickly.
5. The moisturising effect of the lotion prevents dry skin and promotes the longevity of your tan. Most lotions also contain ingredients such as Vitamin E to counteract the ageing effects of the UV rays.
6. It is essential to wear tanning goggles at every session. Closing your eyes is not enough to protect from harmful sunbed side effects such as cataracts and cornea damage.

Sunbeds can make you look your best and make you feel great. Following these sunbed tips and you will soon attain beautiful bronzed skin.
