The Spray Tan Formula Is The Next Best Alternative To Tanning On A Beach

By Haywood Hunter


Tanning beds have been the solution for several decades for those seeking that beautiful bronzed skin look. Research however, has shown that this is not the healthiest approach to tanning one's skin. Tanning beds will still emit dangerous ultra violet rays that can cause fatal melanomas. A better choice is the spray tan technique.



The recommended alternative to acquire a beautiful, even tan is to visit a salon that offers a spray tan system. This is achieved inside a tanning booth where a series of spray tan nozzles emit the tanning formula onto the front of the body first. You need to stand in a certain spot the right distance from the tanning source for about fifteen second, then turn around and allow your back to be sprayed as well. The arms need to be held up so that the spray will also reach the sides of the body.

The skin should first be exfoliated at home. The less there is of any dry skin on the body the better the stain will stick and look natural. A bit of time invested in scrubbing the face, and especially the knees and elbows will ensure that even application of the tanning spray.

Use a shower cap to cover your hair leaving the hairline and ears exposed to the spray. Then cover areas like the finger nails, toes, soles of the feet and palms of the hands with a barrier gel that will prevent deeper staining. The tanning salon will more than likely supply you with the gel since we don't use this under any other circumstances.

Once inside the spray tan booth it is also advised that you wear eye goggles as well as a nose plug. These are simply additional safety features that will ensure that you will not have any damage to the eyes or to your respiratory system. Then, follow the audio instructions for sprey tan by waving your hand over the start button.

The nozzles will discharge a light mist of the tanning formula for about a quarter of a minute. It will feel refreshing to the skin. Keep your arms raised so that this spray will also reach the entire torso. The spray tan mist will automatically shut off and at that point, turn around and repeat the procedure on your back, now keeping the arms in front of your chest, palms facing inwards.

Once the spray has stopped you can then exit the booth and remove any excess stain by lightly rubbing with a towel. Wear loose clothing so that it will not rub on the newly applied spray tan. Wait about seven hours for the stain to set before taking a shower.

Many people have found that spray tan is a better alternative to the traditional tanning beds of the last few decades. The growing concern about exposing one's body to the ultra violet rays that have proven to cause melanomas is not something people want to expose themselves to anymore. The spray tan technique is certainly here to stay.
