Remind Yourself Regularly Use Sun Tan Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


Finally it looks as though summer is trying to make an appearance. As usual at the first hint of sun, plenty of people will be outside trying to obtain a tan. So wherever there is sunshine, people are going to try and make the most of it, as everyone seems to feel healthier when they have a tan. Hopefully they will remember to apply a sun tan lotion.

It is simple to confuse a sun screen with a sun tan lotion. Help is at hand with the two combined in one easy to use lotion. The benefits of sun screen is that it protects against harmful UVA and UVB rays from the sun, the sun tan lotion works jointly with proteins, which the body produces, to darken the pigment of the skin.

If you are looking for a combination sun tan lotion and sun screen, always look for the letters SPF. These stand for sun protection factor. Most people seem to look for an SPF of at least 20, the higher the number the longer an individual can stay out in the direct sun.

One effect from the sun is that it will dry the skin. This is why your skin feels tight if you have sun burn. The sun tan lotion's cream aspect is designed to be readily absorbed by the skin, so keeping it hydrated. This will also assist in maintaining the skin's natural elasticity.

Anyone who was about in the 1980s might remember the very successful slip, slop, slap campaign. It started in Australia, and was instrumental in raising awareness to the dangers of overdoing sun worshipping. Thirty years down the line and it is still just as important to remind yourself, when out in strong sun slip a loose shirt on, slop on your sun tan lotion, and protect your head by slapping on a hat.

People are a bit more careful when at the beach, but seem to forget that it is the same sun over their backyard. Then there are those who regularly work outside. A shirtless construction worker is a common sight when the sun is shining. Yet he probably isn't attempting to tan, he should still use some form of sun tan lotion or else he will get sun burn. If it is too severe it could force time off of work.

For those actively seeking a sun tan, the use of a combination sun tan lotion and screen means that your body will be protected for longer. This means that the sun gets longer to work with the bodies own melanin. This is the bodies own sun block, which will cause the pigmentation in the skin to darken, or tan.

The sun tan lotion should be re-administered regularly. Some might feel that because they are using a waterproof one, but not entering the water that it doesn't affect them. Unfortunately it does, due to the body naturally perspiring. So reapplication of the sun tan lotion is necessary even when using waterproof varieties.

So by all means go out and enjoy the sun this summer. Get yourself a nice healthy tan, but try not to overdo it. Always remember to use, and reapply, a good quality sun tan lotion.
