Achieve The Ideal Effects With Good Tanning Lotions

By Haywood Hunter


There are many questions, when it comes to choosing a tanner. What is tanning? How does the change in skin color happen and how long one should spend in the sun. Read this article and your questions, or at least most of your question around this topic will be answered. It will give you details as to what cell in the body produces what in the body that makes this wonderful occurrence possible.

The first question that needs to be understood is the meaning of sun bathing. Sun bathing is when a person makes the decision to lay in the sun and allow the skin to soak up the rays of the sun. The reason for doing this is the desire of having a golden brown color on the skin. In unfortunate cases this does not always happen as some people gets sun burnt. If the person is fair skinned he or she might first go quite red, sometimes the skin will feel a little tight, but then after that the skin will go to the desired golden brown color as desired.

When you do get sunburned a little bit you should keep the skin moisturized with lotion to prevent pealing of the skin. This will also ensure that there is a biggest chance of getting the desire color the person intended when he or she went to lay is the sun. Being this color can have a lot of advantages.

The golden brown color of the skin can prevent a person form getting really bad sun burnt with blisters and it can be really very sore when this happens. The skin also looks naturally very healthy and glowing. The person that has this color skin also always looks very healthy in general and they are usually, but not always, outdoor people that love sports.

So how does the skin produce this sometimes very radical skin color change? The skin has cells called Melanocytes. These Melanocytes produces something called Melanin. You get two different types of melanin that is produced by the melanocytes. The first one that is produced is called Pheomelanin and this melanin is responsible for the red color that the skin turns when you go into the sun. The second typed of melanin that is produced by the melanocytes is called Eumelanin. This melanin is responsible for the brown color that the skin turns when a person sun baths.

There is a general function for this thing called melanin. What is the reason why the body and to be more precise the melanocytes make sure that this melanin is produced. The melanin is responsible for the absorption of the solar radiation when the skin is exposed to the sun and by doing this it will protect the body and the skin as a whole.

There are two kinds of ultra violet rays that you get. They are called ultra violet - A and ultra violet - B. The ultra violet - A is the radiation that causes an oxidative stress effect. This will oxidize the existing melanin. This effect leads to the rapid darkening of the melanin which in turn causes the golden brown color of the skin.

It is recommended that you only spend short periods of time in the sun. Try not to stay in the sun until your skin is red as this could be very sore. To have the gradual brown color change you should only be doing this for about thirty minutes at a time.
