This guide will be useful for those who want to sunbathe and do not want. With Cosmetologists VIP Clinic and Rodina Health Club and Long Life, we respond to the most popular questions about tanning-in the observation, which areas are succumbing to it faster and partially to be partially illuminated.
How does a tanning look?
Thanks to Melanin, everything happens. This is a natural pigment that gives color to skin, hair and eyes. The more melanin in the body, the more they become darker. Melanin is produced by special cells – melanocytes in the lower layer of the epidermis. UV protects and distributes the skin from radiation absorbs, thus reducing the risk of damaging the cell DNA. “Simply put, when the skin is exposed to the sun, melanocytes are activated and more melanin is made to maintain epidermis-how this tanning occurs.”
Which parts of the body sunbathe faster?
The number of melanocytes may vary in different parts of the body, so some sunbathe faster than others. “Shoulders, back and face light – better blood flow and a more dense stratum layer. Slow, skin color, skin is thinner and the following melanocytes are the activity of the melanocytes.
Is it possible to partially enlighten – with just one face or just in one body?
Yeah, you can. But most likely the tan will be irregular. Tan occurs locally – that is, melanin is produced only in areas exposed to the ultraviolet radiation of the skin. For example, if you sunbathe with your back, the face will not darken. But there are exceptions. “This is possible with hormonal changes (eg during pregnancy) and in general when taking some drugs that increase the sensitivity of the skin to light,” Ekaterina Kruglik warns.
If you decide to Sunbathe, remember that this area is more sensitive to UV radiation due to thin skin. Therefore, the risk of pigmentation and aging increases. The face should be protected more intensely than the body and it is better to sunbathe equally, not in pieces.
7 rules for safe tanning
Our experts made a checklist. Watch a few suggestions to sunbathe safely:
– The best time for tanning until 11:00 or after 16:00. During these hours, the UV radiation level is lower.
– SPF protective cream should be selected taking into account the photo of the skin and updated once every two hours and after bathing.
-You need to start sunbathing from 10-15 minutes of stay in the sun and you gradually increase the time.
– To avoid dehydration, you need to drink too much water.
– After tanning, it is necessary to moisturize the skin – Aloe or Panthenol products are suitable.
-It is not recommended to use solarium due to the risk of melanoma.
– It is not recommended to drink alcohol in front of tanning – It increases the skin’s sensitivity to light.
How are the skin prepared for tanning?
Stage 1 Explosion
1-2 days before the grain, it is recommended to perform soft peeling using a rubbing or cloth to remove keratinted cells and provide a more equal skin paint.
Stage 2. Moistening
It is important to maintain hydration: for enough water and use light creams.
Stage 3. Strength
In the diet, it is desirable to increase the number of products with vitamins A, C and E and E (carrots, citrus, hazelnut) – contribute to the production of melanin. Products with omega-3 fatty acids (fish, avocado) help support the skin barrier.
Stage 4. Sun
It should be applied 20 minutes before the sun.
Which protection factor is used for the face and body?
Face: SPF 30-50. The skin is thin and sensitive, more prone to pigmentation and needs more protection.
Body: SPF 15-30 (if the skin is dark) or 30-50 (if light).
Special Cases:
– SPF 50+ should be used for children as well as adults as well as cosmetic procedures (laser, peeling).
– Use waterproof sunscreen during the beach holiday.
