Since the 1980s, people started to fake and bake in tanning beds, only to create more dangers of tanning. Tanning beds emit more UVA rays in a shorter period of time than the sun does .
While UVA rays may not burn like UVB rays, they penetrate the skin deeper, putting you at greater risk for premature aging and skin cancer. Tanning beds can also damage your eye sight and immune system, and if not properly sanitized, can be a haven for bacteria.
If you can be a bottled blond, you can have a bottled tan. To achieve the golden look minus the wrinkles and chance of skin cancer later, try tanning lotions or spray-on tans instead of the tanning beds. Tanning lotions contain the ingredient dihydroxyacetone, or DHA, which oxidizes on the skin’s outermost layer, creating the look of a tan. Unsightly streaks are usually not a problem with today's self-tanning lotions, but to ensure a more even tone it is best to exfoliate with a loofah prior to application.
