Facial tanners are a great way to give your face that sun-kissed glow without having to go outside. Facial tanners are used by some just to get a quick tan on their face, or for some with severe acne, of course recommended by their doctor. Facial tanners will run you anywhere from $80.00, to sometimes over $200.00, depending on the wattage of the light bulbs in the facial tanner you are looking to purchase. You still of course are going to attract those UV rays, so it is recommended you still lather your face up with a lotion containing a high SPF. Applying lotion before using the facial tanner not only will protect your skin from the harmful rays, but it will also add moisture, and help your skin tan faster. When using your facial tanner, you should also wear protective goggles that are usually included in the facial tanner’s box.
The things people seem to like about facial tanners is that they are used in the convenience of your own home, with privacy. You can also chat on the phone or listen to music while using your at-home facial tanner. I have also heard it works well for people who burn easily, by being able to do your own sessions, without breaking your wallet at the tanning salon. It’s basically unlimited usage once you buy your facial tanner, unlike a tanning salon. The only thing you would have to replace are the bulbs which are fairly cheap, usually costing about $10.00 each. If you are an avid tanner at your tanning salon, a facial tanner would be a good investment for you because it will eventually pay for itself with only a couple uses.
Although most facial tanners aren’t as strong as the tanning salons, some women or men feel that the facial tanners take too long to make your skin tan. Before purchasing a facial tanners, be aware that they do require some patience and time. Some doctor’s, rarely, do recommend facial tanners for those with acne. Other believe that facial tanners, or any kind of tanning can irritate the skin and cause more breakouts than vanish them. This is true, but it totally depends on the type of skin of the person seeking to tan their face. Another con of facial tanners is premature aging, and no ones favorite – wrinkles. As everyone knows, and type of UV ray damage to your skin can at its worse, lead to cancer. If purchasing a facial tanner is what you plan on doing, just be careful, and be smart.
Again, a moisturizer is always recommended before and after tanning the face. Be sure to buy a facial moisturizer that is made for your skin type, and also has a fairly high SPF. Facial tanners can be found anywhere, and all over the internet. eBay, beauty supply websites, and beauty supply stores in your area sell facial tanners. Be sure to replace your bulbs as needed, to ensure an even skin tan.
