Become a Mediterranean aristocrat
It is said that in Europe and the United States, wheat or bronze skin not only represents a person's fashion level, but also shows a person's status to some extent. As mentioned in Style, in America, fat people are poor. Nowadays, in many western countries, too white skin will be considered inappropriate or even inferior. Bronzed skin is not only a fashionable thing, but also an indicator of economic strength-showing the ability and time of sunbathing.
However, for the vast majority of China people, it is not an easy task to go to the seaside to enjoy sunbathing. What should I do if I want to have dark and bright bronzed skin without going out to bask in the sun? The best way is to use the latest "fake sun" technology, that is to say, the sun is fake, but it can have a sun effect. Now, more and more urban men use this technology to get bronzed skin quickly and effectively, keep up with the trend and show a healthy, sunny and cheerful image. Therefore, although some people already know that bronzed skin doesn't necessarily mean going to the seaside to sunbathe or going abroad for holidays, it is just sunbathing in the sun center, but it is still considered as a very fashionable practice. It is this psychology that makes tanning centers popular in cities.
It is understood that such tanning centers called tanning culture and tanning centers have appeared in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other places. Many sunbathers are people with high income, fashionable taste and love to follow the trend. At the same time, they also pay more attention to health and image than others-shaping the image of a Mediterranean aristocrat.
"Black" road attacker
Direct sunbathing
Sunbathing is the most natural tanning method, which makes the skin appear healthy wheat color or honey color, at the same time, it can also make the body produce vitamin D and promote the absorption of calcium. However, before tanning in natural sunlight, you must exfoliate with scrub. Pay attention to clean the thick cuticle such as face, elbow, knee and heel. If you want to make your skin black, bright and shiny, you must avoid dehydration. We can apply olive oil all over our body, which can fuse with the skin water lipid film to form a water-locking protective film. Its natural sunscreen ability can also filter the invasion of ultraviolet rays and prevent spots and wrinkles. Of course, it is important to apply sunscreen products. You can choose SPF 15 sunscreen with high PA value (to prevent UVA from damaging deep skin) and apply it half an hour before going out.
Reminder: Sunbathing is also very particular. To achieve the effect of tanning without harming the skin, sun protection preparation before sunbathing and maintenance after sunbathing must be done well. Ignoring the preparation work before sun exposure will lead to uneven sun exposure and fail to achieve the expected results; If you don't pay attention to the repair after drying, the effect of drying will be greatly reduced.
Tip: when you start sunbathing, it is best to control it for half an hour, and then you can increase it every day, but don't be greedy. Both sides of the body should be taken care of, and the time can be divided equally. After sunbathing every day, use after-sun repair cream, which can slow down skin aging and make your tanning effect last longer. Under normal circumstances, the skin tanned in tanning salons will be less lustrous and attractive than the skin tanned naturally, so people who tan in tanning salons should choose sunbathing if they have the opportunity.
Directly use tanning products to "black" yourself
For those men who want honey-colored skin but don't want to be baptized by the sun, the best news is the advent of "self-help tanning" products. "Suntan" is to imitate the effect after sun exposure, that is, to apply some products similar to the sun, so as not to bear the risk of sunburn, and at the same time, the skin will have a chocolate-colored effect in a short time. The most amazing thing is that tanning products contain a chemical component NEV, which can react with protein in the skin to create a bronzed complexion, and it will gradually darken over time. This chemical composition is not harmful to the body, and after stopping tanning products for 3-7 days, human keratinocytes will gradually fall off with the growth cycle of cells (or use exfoliating cream), and the skin color will automatically recover. You can think of "black" as "white".
Reminder: Many big brands of cosmetics have their own professional tanning products, generally emulsion, spray, liquid foundation and so on. , can be selected according to different needs. In addition, tanning products are different from medium black, dark color and matte bronze color. When choosing, you must choose the right color according to the color of hair and eyes. It is best to have an allergy test before using the popular tanning cream.
Tip: When self-help tanning, pay attention to the following points-
Take a bath to clean your body, remove the accumulated dead skin with a gentle scrub, and then keep your body dry.
Wear gloves before applying tanning products, and then apply them in circles from a large area of the body to ensure uniform application.
When smearing, the fingers are close together without gaps. If the product is not well applied, it is more convenient to use a cosmetic sponge.
After applying for 20 minutes, make sure that the product is absorbed and completely dry before wearing clothes.
Pay attention to keep your body dry for about 12 hours after applying sunscreen products, and don't let your body engage in activities that may sweat. /kloc-After 0/2 hours, after the sun-dried products are completely absorbed, conduct self-inspection to see if there is any paint or unevenness. Dissatisfied areas that need to be recolored should be removed with makeup remover cotton dipped in lemon juice.
