How to Tan Without Burning

Most health officials agree that tanning in any form is not good for your skin. But for
those who must tan, there are a couple of options to choose from.

Sunning

Instructions

• STEP 1: Start with 10 or 15 minutes of exposure to the sun or a tanning lamp,
and gradually increase the time as your body becomes more tanned.
• STEP 2: Start with a sunscreen with an SPF factor of under 15, but no less than 8.
• STEP 3: Keep skin moisturized with after-sun lotion - preferably with aloe - to
make your tan last.

Tips & Warnings

• Some medications (especially acne medications) lower your resistance to sun.
• If you are light-skinned, you are more prone to sunburn than people with darker
complexions.
• Avoid the sun during the peak hours of 10:00 to 2:00, when its rays are the most
harmful.
• Always protect your eyes while tanning in the sun or in a tanning bed.
• Tanning booths and beds subject your body to the same general kinds of rays as
the sun emits. Be aware that you can get sunburned in a tanning bed.

Tanning Lotion

Instructions

• STEP 1: Buy cream or spray-on tanning lotion.
• STEP 2: Test the product on a small area of skin for adverse reactions.
• STEP 3: Scrub away dead skin with a loofah pad before applying lotion.
