The dangerous solariums, tanning pills, or simply ‘raw sun bathing’ are a definite no nos’!. Read on as we cover safe, and unsafe ways to achieve that glowing bronzed look all year round... Solariums…Time capsules.. Statistics indicate that there still seems to be

large numbers of people who still believe

solariums are safe....Little do they know... The world health organisation has recently

released some surprising figures indicating just

how dangerous solariums are and how they can be

just as deadly as smoking cigarettes. Solariums

increase the chance of skin cancer by 75%. So

whatever you do, stay clear from solariums

(sunbeds). Solariums are compared to time

capsules....when you step into one..... it will zap

you into looking older than your years within a short burst of time and could end your

solariums have been responsible for this over the past few decades . Some countries are

trying to get solariums banned from public use in a bid to save their citizens skin and

health.

Don’t take Pills my Sun.. There are certain types of ‘tanning pills’ that contain Canthaxin and

other dangerous chemicals which supposedly give you a fake tan

after ingesting a few tablets. These tanning pills are now banned

commercially in the US. and other countries by the FDA (food and

drug administration) These pills have been known to cause liver

damage and other health related problems. Canthaxanthin and the

carotenoid chemicals, which are ingredients within tanning pills

have been linked with hepatitis and hives, plus all sorts of peculiar

and abnormal reactions. One of the many side effects from these

tanning pills give the skin an itchy, red and bloated look.
