What is Tanning 


Tanning is a natural process in the skin to help it establish protection from the sun. Tanning is, therefore, a reaction to the sun and the visible result of an alteration of skin cells by UV rays (ultraviolet rays).  
When it receives rays, the skin reacts and seeks to protect itself. Specific skin cells, melanocytes, activate the production of melanin, a natural pigment.  
Melanin gradually colors the skin to limit the impact of UV rays. If the exposure is repeated the process accelerates.  
Melanin migrates to the surface of the skin whose color changes: the tan appears! This phenomenon varies from one individual to another. Similarly, the protective capacity of the tan depends on the individual phototype.  

Did you know? 

When you are exposed to the sun and the skin is attacked by UV rays, surface skin cells called keratinocytes multiply to thicken the stratum corneum, limit UV penetration, and establish protection against the sun.  
In the sun, the skin, therefore, becomes a little thicker. It is however not recommended to make scrubs during the exposure periods so as not to weaken the skin. And it is essential to choose the right Sunscreen Gel.

Which sunscreen to choose?  

Choose Sunscreen according To Your Skin is a very important decision. Broad-spectrum sunscreen gel protects you from both UVA and UVB rays. It is also protected from premature skin ageing. If you have dry skin that doesn’t do well in the sun? Go with the sunscreen that doubles as a moisturizer.

Is SPF 30 the best? 

An SPF 30 sunscreen does not protect your skin from tan effectively as compared to SPF 50 Sunscreen. Tanning develops more slowly and gradually; the color of the skin is more homogeneous and more radiant while minimizing the alterations linked to UV since the skin is protected. Also, Dermatologist recommends the broad-spectrum sunscreen with higher SPF for sun protection is enriched with anti-ageing active ingredients such as Cell Protect with anti-free radical properties. 

How to choose your Sunscreen Gel? 


The SPF (Sun Protection Factor) is the index of the level of sun protection of a product. It allows consumers to identify the sun protection capacity of a product. There are 4 levels of SPF: 6 to 10 = low protection, 15 to 25 = medium, 30 to 50 = high, 50 and 50 + = very high. Total protection does not exist, but the higher the SPF, the greater the photo-protection action, that's why dermatologist recommends not using SPF 60 or above they recommend Sunscreen Gel SPF 50. 

Good practices in the sun 

  • Apply sunscreen gel every 2 hours during prolonged exposures 
  • Avoid exposure to the hottest hours (between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m.) 
  • For maximum protection, put on a hat, sunglasses and light clothing 
  • Sunscreens are perishable: once the expiration date has passed, their effectiveness is no longer guaranteed. Their shelf life after opening is 3 to 6 months. 

A little sun to boost and Vitamin D! 

The sun is good for our morale but above all essential for the synthesis of Vitamin D.  
Beware of misconceptions, Vitamin D deficiencies are not due to an abuse of sun filters. Indeed, protection with a high SPF does not prevent the action of UV on its synthesis.  
Vitamin D deficiencies most often come from biological or external causes such as diet.  
So nothing like a little sun to naturally boost vitamin D in the body. But we always expose ourselves moderately and with protection against the sun.
