To achieve a gorgeous, authentic looking tan, people are willing to put themselves under so many unnecessary risks and expenses. Spending the day baking your skin under the sun's unrelenting ultraviolet rays can cause irreparable skin damage, skin cancer and other horrific problems or illnesses, and tanning beds aren't any better! If you currently use a tanning bed to achieve your tan, you might want to reconsider. Not only can the cumulative damage caused by the machines lead to premature ageing (including lax skin, brown spots and wrinkles), but if you hop on a tanning bed for the first time before you're 35, you increase your risk of developing melanoma by a terrifying 75 percent

What is the better option?

If you're looking to achieve a sun-kissed look without any of the horrible skin damage, choosing from the wide variety of self-tanning options available to you is definitely the smarter choice. Whether you select a foam or spray tan, these ingenious products have been designed so that you can safely achieve a gorgeous, consistent tan year round, regardless of the weather.

Save time and money

With a home applied tan, you're avoiding the extortionate costs required to maintain a sun-bed tan, which can set you back an average of £3 for 3 minutes of use. That really does add up. Why put such a dent in your finances and risk the skin damage when you can achieve a fantastic, authentic looking tan at home, for a fraction of the cost? Not only that, but when you factor in the amount of time it can take out of any busy person's day to visit a tanning salon or lie in the sun for hours on end, when compared to the quick and easy application of a self-tanning solution, the latter option makes a lot more sense.

With My Tan London you can choose from a wide selection of self-tanning solutions, created with high quality ingredients and without the nasty, skin-damaging chemicals seen in other brands.
