Discount Tanning Lotions Protect You

Avoid Sunburn With Discount Tanning Lotions

Our cultural obsession with tanning starts with Coco Chanel. According to legend, the mother of the 'little black dress' accidentally acquired a deep bronze tan while vacationing on the French Riviera. Being the icon that Chanel was, the fashion-savvy raced to imitate her new look. Since then, a tan has become both a sign of status and a benchmark for personal beauty.

The quest to get as tan as possible is not as simple as it once was. The UVB rays absorbed during sun tanning have been shown to cause skin cancer, driving many tanners indoors to sunless tanning beds or or spray-on tans. Spray tans simply don't look as good as the real thing, and the safety of tanning beds in comparison to the real thing is debatable. For a majority of tanners, there's no substitute for sun tanning, but it's important to tan safely, and that includes protecting your skin with the selection of discount tanning lotions available at i-Supplements. We stock lotions, moisturizers and other tanning products from over 20 brands, including top brands like Supre, Australian Gold and Designer Skin.

If you plan to spend your summer catching rays, here are some excellent tips for safe tanning:

If you tan during peak sun hours (between 10am and 4pm), take regular shade breaks to cool off and get out of the sun for a little while. Heatstroke is an often-overlooked danger of excessive tanning, and you can avoid it by taking regular breaks. Don't stay out in the sun for more than 2-3 hours at a time, and be sure to apply discount tanning lotions or other products after you swim or sweat, and every few hours to get maximum protection.

Be sure to use the right sun tan lotion in order to reduce harmful UVB radiation. Many discount tanning lotions have ingredients that will rebuild damaged skin as well as protecting it from the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays. Look for a lotion with a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 30, though 45 is preferable. Nutrient-wise, look for products with Vitamins A and E.

Stay hydrated. Drinking water while tanning is another way to make sure you get the proper nutrients and avoid dehydration. Drinking cool water will also lower your body temperature, which will also help to prevent heatstroke.
