Use the sunbed - but use it properly!
A few things need to be noted to get maximum enjoyment from a sunbed.
The following are answers to some frequently asked questions.
Make-up on the sunbed?
Please don’t wear any make-up. Clean skin absorbs UV light better.
Cosmetics contain a wide variety of substances. Whether emulsifiers,
emollients, or scents - when exposed to UV radiation, these substances
can cause allergic reactions of the skin.
Accordingly, before using a sunbed you must: remove all make-up!
Make-up clogs the pores in the face. The UV light from a sunbed re-
opens these clogged pores so that not only does the light penetrate the
skin, but also the allergenic components of the make-up.
A further negative impact of make-up is that the appearance of the skin
deteriorates irreversibly over a period of time. However good a decent
make-up looks - in conjunction with UV light, it causes more harm than
good. Therefore: Remove all make-up before a session on your sunbed
- it will be much better applied afterwards.
Showering after the tanning session?
A tan is in the skin, not on it., which means you cannot wash it off. Apply
moisturizing cream on your skin after showering.
Medication and sunbed at the same time?
It is known that some drugs increase the skin’s sensitivity to UV light. This
tendency is particularly high with antibiotics, sulphonamides, psychotrop-
ic drugs, tranquillizers, anti-diabetics and diuretics. Suncreams which
contain psorale or kumarin also increase skin sensitivity. If in any doubt,
ask your doctor first - you can then enjoy the tanning at no risk.
Contact lenses on the sunbed?
The answer is: Yes! Like any other sunbed user, contact lens wearers
should also wear special protective goggles which protect the eyes
against UV radiation. To guarantee better protection, wearers of specta-
cles and contact lenses can ask their optician for disposable contact
lenses with UV protection. The UV-A and UV-B filters built into exchange-
contact lenses will protect the cornea and the internal parts of the eye
against almost 100% of the energy in UV radiation.
This will benefit sunbed users not only in the open air, but on the sunbed
itself. You can wear these contact lenses even on the sunbed without any
restrictions. For more information, ask your optician or optometrist.
