Get A Natural Glow! The Most Recommended Natural Sunless Tanners




A golden tan is very desirable but if you're like me you don't want to jeopardize your skin's health for a tan.

That's why sunless tanners are great, but if you look at many sunless tanners you'll find many highly questionable ingredients:

Water, dihydroxyacetone, glycerin, methylpropanediol, sorbitol, ethylhexyl hydroxystearate benzoate, C12-15 alkyl benzoate, methyl gluceth-20 benzoate, glycerl stearate, PEG-100 stearate, cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, magnesium aluminum silicate, xanthan gum, tetrasodium EDTA, sodium citrate, polysorbate 20, hydroxyethl acrylate/sodium acryloydimethyltautate copolymer, squalane, polysorbate 60, citric acid, phenoxyethanol, methylparaben, ethylparaben, butylparaben, propylparaben, isobutylparaben, BHT, fragrance.

Ingredients that you leave you wondering if you are causing just as much skin damage as the sun does. The studies show you are. And not only that, some of the ingredients such as parabens can alter your hormones and even cause cancer.

After hours of searching the internet, here are some of the best natural sunless tanners I've come across.

A Note About Dihydroxyacetone (DHA): DHA is considered safe by the Federal Drug Administration and by Skin Deep's Database. It is a substance found in most sunless tanners and is obtained from sugar. However, a Berlin Laboratory has determined that during the 24-hour period of time after a sunless tanner with DHA is applied, the skin is especially susceptible to damage caused by free radicals in sunlight. Therefore be especially sure to wear sunscreen when using sunless tanners. In addition, while using sunscreens be sure to get sufficient vitamin D.

There is one sunless tanner called 100% Herbal Instant Tan which doesn't use DHA.

  1. Melanotan2? Are you serious? I-n-j-e-c-t-i-o-n-s to get tanned? Dragged far. Too far. Extemely far I'd say. Why not chose the natural (Mediterranean) diet? Lots of carrots and tomatoes instead? And plain Copper food-supplement? Jesus! Injections?
