Besides skin type, here are other factors to consider when
making your selection from so many tanning products:
Chosen
Activity – Being outdoors is not the only element
to take into consideration when factoring in your amount
exposure
to the sun. You also need to note the intensity with regards
to climate, the season, location and time of day. For example,
just because you may be hiking in a cool mountain region
or
snow skiing, doesn’t mean you should through all caution
aside. Wind and UV rays still reach you so protection would
be wise.
And surfaces with reflective qualities; snow, water, sand,
etc. can intensify UV ray harm. And activities that make
you work up a sweat or that involve water, with a potential
to
wash off your sunscreen, need to be handled a little differently;
like basketball, jogging, sun bathing on a hot beach, biking,
water skiing, jet skiing, parasailing and outdoor work and
exercise. Choose a sunscreen product for these activities
with both UVA and UVB coverage and an SPF of 15 or higher,
when
possible. And for water / sweat activities, choose a product
that offers a waterproof or water-resistant agent. Dress
appropriately, too, by covering up as much skin as possible,
like wearing
long sleeves, a scarf or hat, slacks or jogging pants.
And
don’t forget your eyes; the sun’s UV rays can cause
cataracts. There are plenty of stylish UV-opaque sunglasses
in all price
ranges for both genders in a variety of stores, today ranging
from the corner drug store to the local optometrist’s office.
Age – There
are only a couple words of caution about age. First of all,
health
care providers do NOT recommend using
alcohol-based
sunscreen products on children. And they do NOT recommend
using sunscreen agents of any type on babies under the
age of 6 months.
For children older than 6 months, a lotion is the preferred
form of sunscreen, over a spray, for example. And the
SPF should be a minimum of 15.
Use on
Body – Your choice of tanning product also depends
upon where you are going
to apply the lotion, gel, spray
or other
form. And it also depends upon the health of the area
of the body. For example, there are lip balms with
sunscreen, solid
or gel-based ones, that not only help the lips but
can touch up spots in a hurry. Also if you’re trying to apply
protection
to fingers, ears, nose and other small areas, a physical
sunscreen agent, lotion or gel may be easier than a
spray.
If you have
dry skin, you might want to try a product in lotion
or cream form. For oily skin, gel-based or alcohol forms
of
sunscreen
might be better choices. Word of caution: do not use
alcohol-based products with inflamed skin or eczematous.
