Acne Cover Creams

The manner in which an individual's skin reacts to the soon varies greatly. When exposed to the sun some people sprout freckles across their face while other people seem to skip the tan coloring altogether and go straight from a pasty white to a tomato red. Among the many consequences that tanning can cause is acne flareups in a small percentage of individuals. While their are many positive effects of moderate sun exposure (most notably natural creation of Vitamin D) one of the negative effects of tanning can be acne issues.

Acne problems resulting from tanning can actually occur with two very different tanning methods and in both instances the solution as to how to minimize the chance of an acne breakout is relatively simple. Let's begin by discussing traditional tanning that involves laying out in the sun. While the sun light itself can cause strange skin reactions in a very small percentage of people the primary culprit for acne issues resulting from laying out in the sun can be blamed on perspiration. People are going to sweet when laying out on a hot Summer's day and the best thing they can do is to keep the sweat from seeping deep into their pores. Perhaps the biggest mistake made in this situation is to consistently wipe the sweat off with the same towel. After the first wiping of the face each subsequent swipe puts old sweat back onto the face - the last place you want it to be.

Keep in mind that acne breakouts are of course not just limited to the face. The chest, back, and shoulders are all targets as well. The problem of pimples showing up on the back and shoulders is compounding by the fact that those areas are exposed when tanning and can consequently create some embarrassing moments when someone wants to lay out in the sun in their swimsuit but feels self-conscious because of acne issues on their shoulder, back, chest, etc. While the temporary solution may be acne cover creams the long term solution is to put more emphasis on keeping perspiration from building up anywhere on your skin where it can seep into your pores and cause some damage.

Acne outbreaks even occur with sunless tanning lotions when the chemical properties don't agree with your skin. It's important to be mindful of the active ingredients if you know of something specific that reacts adversely to your skin. Keep in mind that sunless tanning is almost always safer than traditional tanning methods and that even though one particular brand of tanning lotion caused an acne breakout does not mean that trying other brands is out of the question. Once you find one that works stick with it.

Tanning Indoors

Tanning indoors can be a healthy and safe alternative to traditional tanning that's done outside in the sun. While most people are familiar with the harmful effects the sun can have on human skin when the exposure is too intense and/or for too long a period of time most people underestimate some of the most basic principals that cause a tremendous amount of the skin damage. Among the important factors to consider when evaluating the difference in safety between tanning indoors and tanning outdoors it's very noteworthy to discuss the fact that outdoors is almost always a less regulated environment. When the environment loses regulation human error becomes a major factor for increased amounts of sun burns as well as long term damage that can be troublesome for a lifetime of health risks.Indoor tanning offers many safe alternatives like spray tan options (pictured above with the women in a bikini in a spray tan booth). The reason outdoor tanning is so harmful is because even when people think that they are playing it safe they're often taking unnecessary risks that add up over time. Among the most common mistakes is losing track of how long they've been out in the sun. It's easy to get caught up a day on the beach of playing volleyball, throwing a football around on the sand, or just hanging out with friends while laying on beach towels. The problem occurs when time flies as it often tends to do when we're having a good time and before you know it you've been in the sun for many hours. Sometimes over eight hours of direct sunlight. Even frequent beach goers forget to reapply sunscreen and many times their first layer isn't applied properly. There are a number of things that can go wrong with the application process including not using an adequate SPF, not applying an even coat, not applying a thick enough coat of sun tan lotion, failing to cover all areas, not putting it in sufficiently early enough before sun exposure, and many others.


Tanning beds are very common for tanning indoors but can also be harmful if not used properly. While generally not as bad as raw sunlight the tanning beds can cause burns and irregularities in skin damage if used incorrectly. The most common tanning bed mistake is using it too frequently or more so using it for too long a period of time. Many newer models are increasing safe but it can still be very dangerous. For consistent tanning indoors it's recommended that people desiring the healthy looking glow of a fresh tan consider safer alternatives like the spray tan described and pictured above. Another very safe option is to use sunless tanning lotion which has become increasingly effective as the product and the science behind it has evolved over time. Don't forget that just because sunless tanning lotion once had a bad reputation of leaving users looking more orange than tan doesn't mean that the product hasn't improved over time. Competition has been wonderful for this industry because as the numbers of brands available has increased so too has the quality of the product. It's been a somewhat Darwinian style survival of the fittest and the best products truly are the ones that are standing the test of time. There are also tanning lamps that play on the effects of tanning beds with the bulbs that produce light that bronzes your skin. If you take nothing else from this article remember that the best way to be safer outdoors in the sun is to regulate and monitor your exposure as much as possible. Tanning indoors is recommended solution for anyone looking to improve the way they look through a sexy tan.
