Sun Lab Can Work For You

By Haywood Hunter


As the atmosphere deteriorates, and the UV rays become more dangerous it has become impossible to sit outside and sunbathe in order to get a healthy looking tan. Today, sunbathing in the traditional way can create skin cancer or at the very least, bad sun burn, and it has become necessary to wear sunscreen at all times to avoid this. Sun Lab have therefore developed other ways of getting a healthy looking, tanned body without the help of the great star that lights the day.

One can choose from many different kinds of products to darken the skin tone. Sometimes dyes are used to create the darker skin. Some women will use a bronzer which is a temporary cosmetic which easily washes away.

One can use gels, creams or sprays to get a great looking tan. Bronzers which are a type of cosmetic and can be applied to give the same effect. Using a bronzer application is a temporary solution. Other self-tanning solutions which are more permanent that contain chemicals such as DHA and Erythrulose can also be applied.

Sprays that are on the market can also create the sunbathed look and darken the skin. This product is a blend of chemicals that react to the amino acids within outer layer of the skin. The outer layer of the skin is dead skin cells that flake off a person every day because the body is a self-exfoliator.

The spray is applied to the body in one continuous spray evenly and closely so that there are no missing spots. The density of the spray depends on how dark one wants to go. One need not go to a professional tanning salon or a spa to have this spray applied, one would only need to buy the product and apply it at home.

The combinations of chemicals that are active are called dihydroxyacetone (DHA) and erythrulose which will react to the dead skin cells of the epidermis also known as the stratum corneum. Both substances when blended together will provide a longer lasting tanned appearance than if they were used separately. Erythrulose is a chemical that consists of a keto sugar base which reacts to the basic chemistry of the skin.

Erythrulose is known to be a substance that develops at a slower rate than DHA and it can take up to 48 hours to develop. It is also known to fade faster than DHA which is why DHA is used in addition to Erythrulose. This substance has a faster development period and it takes longer to fade. When used together, the effect is that there is an immediate tan which can last up to 10 days.

Sun Lab are the developers of these effective self-tanning solutions. They also produce effective sunscreen products which will protect the body from the UVB and UVA rays that are produced in the atmosphere. This organization advocates the use of artificial tanning solutions rather than sunbathing because it is much better for the skin's health.
