On vacation, many either immediately “burn out” or the tan does not apply at all, and pigmentation appears on the body and face. The thing is that you need to start preparing your skin for tanning in advance. And we’re not talking about solariums, or even UV protection. EAOMedia news agency will tell you the details.
Here's the secret: two weeks before active sun, start taking foods rich in beta-carotene: carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach, apricots. You can add a tablespoon of tomato paste per day – lycopene enhances natural UV protection.
Beta-carotene works as an internal filter, and antioxidants prevent photoaging. The method does not replace Sanskrin, but it helps the skin tan more evenly and be less injured.
Of course, do not forget about special oils with a UV filter – they can also affect the shade of the tan, although they primarily protect from the sun.
You cannot ignore them, otherwise you will have to pay for a beautiful skin tone that will last a couple of months with years of premature aging.
So sometimes a bowl of carrot salad a day is enough to prepare your skin for the holidays – gently and safely. But it is important not to overdo it, as excess beta-carotene gives a yellowish tint.
