What are the side effects of sunless tanners?
Most if not all of self tanners do not contain any SPF. You will still need to apply sunscreen to protect your skin from the UV radiation the sun produces outside. As with any cosmetic product, avoid getting it too close to your eyes because this could cause burning and irritation. One of the biggest benefits of sunless tanners is that they are quite safe. Not many products are these days. Review a few products before you begin to apply them and be choosy. Remember, it’s your skin. Look for something with natural or organic ingredients as these generally produce the best color and have less risk of irritation. Avoid the orange! No one wants to look like a walking carrot when they go out. In my experience, the best sunless tanner I’ve found is a product by Adonia Organics called Bronzing Glow. It gives a very natural, gradual tan without streaking and it is very quick and easy to apply.
