Both men and women today are obsessed with maintaining a young and youthful look. The anti-aging industry is presently on a roll all across the world with a $5 billion dollar net worth in the United States alone along with a global net worth of $300 billion. Though primarily popular as an alternative to sun tanning for those who don’t want to expose themselves to the scorching sun, sunless tanning has also emerged as a popular choice among people as an anti-aging aid. This is because it is a more cost effective option as compared to other luxurious anti-aging brands available in the market today. Besides giving an amazing sun kissed tan, regular sunless tanning can effectively fill up wrinkles as well as also prevent the appearance of fine lines and age spots. Relation between Overexposure to Sun and Aging Exposure to the sun is crucial to improve the body’s immune system as well as for leading a stress free and healthy life. The body produces vitamin D naturally on exposure to sunlight. Deficiency of vitamin D may lead to heart disease, cancer and other debilitating conditions. However, this does not mean that sunbathing mindlessly to get a tan is good for you. In fact 90 percent of all signs of premature aging of the skin can be attributed to overexposure to the sun or sunbathing gone wrong. The occurrence of age spots, rough skin, freckles, spider veins, loose skin and fine lines can all be traced down to overexposure to the sun. While you may not control the sun, indoor sunless tanning provides you the benefits of a natural looking tan without the damage caused by too much exposure to the sun. Sunless Tanning for Younger Looks Sunless tans make use of dihydroxyacetone (DHA) to produce a natural looking tan. DHA is FDA approved and sunless tanning using DHA products ensure that you are safe from the aging effects produced by overexposure to the sun while or sun tanning. The DHA reacts with the skin’s cells to take on a dark tan which fades away in about five to eight days. Moreover, the sun kissed glow from the sunless tan enhances the beauty of the skin making it look younger. Sunless spray tans are also effective for covering up age spots and blemishes, thus reducing signs of age.
