Nothing looks or feels better than sun-kissed skin; a beautiful healthy glow is the finishing touch to every outfit. But did you know that a tan is your skin cells in distress? Let’s take a look at some must know tanning facts. When your skin is exposed to harmful UV rays it can trigger a genetic defect, which can lead to skin cells rapidly multiplying and forming tumours. 2 in 3 Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer by the age of 70; that healthy glow doesn’t sound so healthy anymore. A youthful appearance and the sun do not go hand-in-hand, the sun ages your skin and causes wrinkles, so that sun-kissed look can soon start being more leather-like. Did you know that sunscreen alone is not enough protection from the sun’s harmful rays? Remember the advertisement, Slip, Slop, Slap. Even if you sit in the shade you can get burnt. Light reflects off surfaces and can burn without you even noticing. A base tan is not adequate sun protection. Whilst a base tan will help you a little, it is not enough sun protection. You need a minimum of SPF 30 to stay safe in the sun, and you must reapply every 2 hours. Always apply sunscreen at least 20 minutes before sun exposure, this allows the active ingredients time to soak into your skin and provide the highest level of protection. You don’t have to sacrifice your sun-kissed look for safety I don’t know about you, but that sun kissed healthy glow is starting to sound less and less healthy. But don’t worry, you don’t have to sacrifice your sun-kissed glow for safety when you can call VR Mobile Beauty Therapy to give your skin that bronzed and beautiful look. VR Mobile Beauty Therapy on the Gold Coast and Brisbane only use ingredients that are kind to you and the environment. 100% vegan, 100% organic and 100% natural; Bella Bronze Tan is firming, fast-drying and suitable for all skin types.
