Spray-on Tan

Tempted to spray on some tan? Avoid the booth!

Why would you spray your entire body with chemicals? To look healthy and tan of course. Think twice before using spray-on tanning booths. The main ingredient in there is the chemical DHA which turns the skin bronze. The FDA says we need to keep the product out of our eyes and mouth and shouldn’t breathe it in. That’s harder than it sounds in an enclosed booth for several minutes. If the only protection offered in the booth is a shower cap – skip it.
People also forget that just because they look tan – they’re NOT protected from the sun. If you do opt for a fake tan – don’t forget the sunscreen.
