If you've been visiting tanning booths with regular tanning lotion made for use in the sun, you may be shortchanging your skin out of benefits that lotions made specifically for use in tanning beds include.
Indoor tanning bed lotions may seem like regular tanning lotion on the outside, but are uniquely created to work with tanning booths to give you a healthy tan. Although they preventing burning, these lotions do not block UV rays from reaching your skin, enabling you to tan more efficiently They are usually more expensive because they include ingredients such as tyrosine, Vitamin E, antioxidants, and moisturizers.
Tyrosine helps your body produce and retain melanin while inhibiting exfoliation. Tyrosine is also an antioxidant that will help your skin stay fresh and clear. Vitamin E and other antioxidants also help diminish the look of scars and flaws that are apparent on your skin. Also, the more moisture your skin retains the better it will tan. UV rays tend to dry out skin very quickly. Therefore, a good tanning bed lotion also hydrates your skin and keeps it moisturized long after your tanning session is complete. Moisturizer is also a key aspect of helping your skin combat the negative aspects of tanning.
Tyrosine is further important because it encourages your body to keep tanning even after you're session is over. Because it encourages the production of melanin, Tyrosine infused products can help protect you from the sun as well. Melanin is your body's natural defense mechanism against sunburn.
If you aren't sure where to begin, read reviews, ask bronzed friends about the brands they use and try out several different brands of tanning lotion before you decide on which one you absolutely can't do without. You can also consult your salon professional who can tell you about a variety of products you may like.
