Does Sun-Kissed Skin Have to Come at a Cost?

summerbrons Says No!

We all know the feeling – that desire for a radiant, healthy glow. But let's face it, baking under the sun isn't exactly the picture of beachside bliss. Not only is it uncomfortable, but it comes with a hefty dose of risk.

Enter the magic of self-tanning! But are those whispers of "fake tan damage" true? We're here to bust some myths and set the record straight with the help of some expert insights.

Safety First: Self-Tanning vs. Sun Exposure

Dr. Simon Zokaie, a leading British Cosmetic Dermatologist, confirms what we already suspected: self-tanning is the clear winner for healthy skin.

Sunbeds and sunbathing expose you to harmful UV rays, wreaking havoc on your collagen and elastin (goodbye, youthful glow!), accelerating ageing, and significantly increasing your risk of skin cancer.

Self-tanning, on the other hand, delivers a beautiful bronzed look without the sun damage. Plus, it works for all skin types.

Let's Talk DHA: The Science Behind the Tan

DHA, the main ingredient in self-tanners, reacts with the top layer of your skin to create a temporary tan. 

Here at Summerbrons, we're all about natural goodness! We use 100% natural DHA in our all of our tanning products. Not only will you get a gorgeous tan, but you'll also be nourishing your skin with antioxidants and boosting collagen production!

Ingredients to Avoid: Steer Clear of Sneaky Irritants

While DHA is generally safe, some self-tanning products contain ingredients that can irritate the skin or even be potentially harmful. Avoid these culprits:

  • Mineral Oil: Clogs pores and may be carcinogenic.
  • Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate: Can irritate the skin at high concentrations.
  • Amyl Acetate: This dry-cleaning friend has no place on your face!
  • Octyl Stearate & Isopropyl Myristate: Both comedogenic and potentially irritating.
  • Alcohol: Dries out your skin, leading to flakiness and irritation.
  • Artificial Fragrances & Colors: Some can be carcinogenic.

Hydration is Key: Keep Your Glow Dewy & Dreamy

Fake tan can be drying, thanks to alcohol used to speed up drying (because who wants to be sticky?). But guess what?You don't have to compromise! Look for alcohol-free formulas packed with hydrating heroes like hyaluronic acid,glycerin, and Vitamin E.
