How damaging is a fake tan to the skin?

Hello.





I%26#039;m very pale. I think I%26#039;d look a lot better with a tan. However I cannot tan in the sun.





So I%26#039;m wondering, how damaging is a fake tan? I know it doesn%26#039;t cause cancer, but how damaging is it to the skin? How much would your face crease if you use it constantly? What is the best fake tan to use to prevent premature wrinkles?





Thanks in advance.|||Fake tan does not damage skin what so ever and it does not cause wrinkles either





My advice if your a first time fake tanner, is to use a tanning moisturiser such as St Tropez Everyday or Dove. It is a moisturiser with a hint of fake tan so it builds up, giving a natural and even tan.|||Fake tan is a safe option and wouldn%26#039;t case damage to your skin however recently beauty experts have been saying that if you put too much fake tan on your face it can dry out the skin and cause premature ageing/wrinkles however i think this might only apply to regular fake tan users. You can get products such as %26quot;The Face%26quot; by Fake Bake - 拢26 which are specifically designed for use on the face and contain ingredients which minimise appearance of wrinkles and contain anti ageing chemicals. It makes skin on the face extra velvety and smooth. Hope this helps xo|||I am assuming you are referring to a spray tan or a rub on tan from a bottle, all other tanning is unsafe, solarium%26#039;s are damaging and ageing and are just not worth it. Tanning preparation such as spray tans are OK they change the melanin in the skin over a period of hours, the only problem with these spray tans they do contain alcohol to make them dry quickly, so they are very drying, and in the end very ageing if you constantly keep having them. Dry skin builds up, why not just enjoy your natural skin, pale skin is fine, just concentrate on keeping it solft and smooth.|||unless you dont use tanning bed then nothing will happen.


i personally think the moisterisers that have a tint of self tan are best as it builds up a gradual natural tan. and its easy (:


fake tan dont usually look natural, spray comes out streaky so yeah get the moisterisers as it does 2 in 1 (keeps skin soft)|||lol this made me laugh a little...sorry no offense. its fake tanner...so basically lotion or oil which basically locks in moisture for a while which means ur skin is happy. u wont crease unless u furrowed ur face the entire day lol...and anyone would be great that has an spf to prevent premature wrinkles.|||fake tanning as in a bed ?


that does cause cancer


and it makes you wrinkly





i would go with a tanner that increases the shade gradually each day


like jergins natural glow dailey mosturizer


it works the best|||not at all that is why they make it so you don%26#039;t have the side effects from natural tanning from the sun. read the labels on the tanner see which best fit your needs.
