5 practical tips for sunburn-free tanning

As every year we waste words and advice on how to have a perfect tan but also on the damage the sun can do to our skin. Today we want to provide you with an easy and concise decalogue on what to do to get an enviable color but not spend the nights and "blanch" sunburn.

Yes to the sun, no to wrinkles

Tanning is given by melanin, which is produced by our bodies and which, stimulated by ultraviolet UV rays, darkens our skin. But ultraviolet rays also lead to the production of an enzyme that promotes the formation of wrinkles by destroying certain components of the dermis. The best solution to get color but not pain nor wrinkles is to fight on several fronts. Because while it is true that we want to increase the production of melanin and thus color, it is also true that we want to counteract sunburn and wrinkles that result from sun exposure.

Perfect tan: how to do it

Just follow these 5 practical tips: 

1. choose foods rich in vitamins and minerals (orange or dark green colored fruits and vegetables) 

2. apply sunscreens with medium to high protection according to phototype, which filter out both UVB and dangerous UVA ultraviolet rays. 

3. moisturize: with creams but also by drinking much more water and juices without added sugars 

4. preserve the hydro-saline balance threatened by excessive sweating by supplementing lost minerals to allow the skin to better retain water; 

5. take supplements that protect against wrinkle formation such as omega-3 supplements from krill oil, such as Omegor Krill naturally rich in astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant allied to the skin.
