There are a number of sun bed lamps in every tan bed on the market. When you are getting a new, or especially a used or older suntan bed, make a careful examination of the bulbs. Ensure that they are real tanning lamps and comply with the FDA guidelines with regard to health and safety. You should also consider how easy it is to get at the bulbs. Be sure that the lamps are easy to change when the time comes. It is very important, and a lot cheaper, if you can carry out such routine maintenance yourself, if you have a home sun bed. There are two completely different types of lamps used in low pressure and high pressure beds. Make sure you get the right tanning bed bulbs for your sun bed, because you cannot use any bulbs you like. If you are ordering replacement bulbs on the Internet, check the make and model of your existing lamps carefully. Make sure that the bulbs you are buying are suitable for your bed. High Pressure Sunbed Bulbs: high pressure beds use quartz lamps in a variety of sizes. The gases used in these bulbs are pressurized to slightly higher than atmospheric pressure. The bulbs in these beds are located in the canopy of the bed, so that you tan from above only. When you have tanned the skin on one side of your body for about 10-12 minutes, you turn over and tan the other side. The flat bed of these tanners is a lot more comfortable than a conventional sun bed. The biggest advantage of these bulbs is the amount of time you need to spend on the sun bed. Because you tan more quickly, you need to spend less time in the salon, which means it works out cheaper. You can get the level of tan you want in about three weeks of three to five sessions a week. However, with a conventional bed, it would take you at least a month to acquire the same level of colour. Maintaining your tan is a lot easier too. You only need two or three sessions a month to maintain the colour, compared with four times that many sessions on a low pressure bed. Many of these lamps produce UVA rays only, not UVB rays which are responsible for burning. Conventional Sun Bed Bulbs: Conventional, or low pressure beds use long tube lamps that resemble household fluorescent tubes. The lamps are located above and below the bed of the sun bed, which means that all areas are tanned at the same time, without the need to change positions during the session. Low pressure beds use UVA and UVB rays in varying mixes. Some use both rays and others emit mostly UVA with some UVB rays. UVA rays are responsible for the (premature) ageing effects on the skin and UVB rays are the burning rays that produce skin burn when you are outside in the sun. It is very important to discover which kind of rays your tan bed’s bulbs emit. You must ensure you replace your existing bulbs with the same new lamps after about 1,000 hours of use. Another consideration when selecting the type of bed you use at home or in the salon, is the tanning bed lotion you will use. Different lotions suit different sorts of beds. The staff at your tanning salon can help you choose a lotion that will work for the bed you are using and your skin type. Regardless of the bed you use, you should certainly always use a lotion or a cream, because they will nourish your skin and help you tan faster. Do you need to find out more about tanning bed bulbs?

At that time they can take longer amount of time say from four days to a week to locate those items and then send it to the customers. However, it is necessary to know that shipping costs are chargeable in such cases. Distributors use their own automated method to calculate the rate that they would charge for the shipment. General estimation is done on the terms of the total weight that needs to be shipped. The shipment is mailed through the General Post Office. About the Author:

Tanning bed lamps, as used in salon tanning beds, are a large part of the secret to the perfect suntan. You can have any depth of tan you desire with the wide choice of bulbs available for tanning beds. There are deep-tanning lamps, bronzing bulbs, face lamps and plenty of others besides. These high-tech bulbs utilize the best technology to tan you safely. Furthermore, there are different sorts of lamps for every type of skin too. The sun bed industry produces different bulbs for from dark to light skin colours. On top of that, you can decide to have a soft tan, a golden tan, a bronze tan, or the darkest tan imaginable. You can even change the kind of bulb, as your tan progresses, so that you can have all kinds of quite stunning results. A tanning bulb is like having the sun in a tube. In fact, it is even better! Modern tanning bed bulbs are made to the highest specifications and are very safe. The sunbed industry and the government have implemented strict rules to ensure your safety. So, if you follow the instructions supplied with the product carefully, you can feel confident that you will not be risking your health to look great. The UV rays they emit are well within prescribed safety limits to make sure you stay healthy and tanned. Furthermore, there are plenty of choices open to you, ranging from UVB and UVA combinations to pure UVA. It is your choice! So, why not get a little extra tan? Tanning bulbs are ultraviolet-emitting devices that act as the main element of the various sorts of tanning beds and booths. Tanning bed lamps have as their main purpose the enhancement of a cosmetic tan, although these bulbs also have a reputation for the successful treatment of eczema and psoriasis. The depth and colour of tanning depends on the spectrum of light produced by the tanning bulbs and the vast majority of tanning bulbs produce more ultraviolet light than the sun. Practically all sunbed lamps use a unit called a ‘ballast’ to regulate their power consumption. The ballast stabilizes the flow of electrical energy inside the lamp and is required in order to ensure that the bulbs use only the exact amount of wattage that they require in order to function effectively. There are different types of tanning bulbs on the market including reflector sunbed lamps and high output lamps. Most lamps fall into two main groups: high pressure and low pressure types. (Within the tanning industry, it is usual to refer to high pressure tanning lamps as bulbs and low pressure tanning bulbs as lamps). Both high and low pressure tanning bulbs require a lack of oxygen inside its housing. High pressure tanning bulbs vary in length from three to five inches and operate with 250 to 2,000 watt ballasts, 400 watt high pressure tanning bulbs are the most popular. They are usually incorporated in the face tanning component of a sun bed. High pressure tanning bulbs are usually made of quartz glass and an extra specialized coating, which is essential to filter out the very harmful UVC ultraviolet rays. These HP tanning bulbs, containing mercury or argon, create ultraviolet light in high concentration. Handling high pressure tanning bulbs requires a great deal of care, because even a tiny amount of oil from your hands can cause the bulb to fail prematurely. High pressure tanning bulbs should be replaced after about 1,000 hours even though they will shine for up to ten times longer. Low pressure tanning lamps are very similar to fluorescent tubes, but the glass that makes up low pressure tanning bulbs naturally filters out UVC ultraviolet rays. Low pressure bulbs have a lifespan of six hundred to sixteen hundred hours of use. About the Author:

The Risk-Aversion of Choosing Tanning Lotion Over Other Tanning Methods
Sunday, June 28th, 2009| Scentsy | Flameless Candles | Wickless Candles |
|
Many of the benefits that derived from using a self-tanner is it’s aversion to the risks of other alternatives. Primarily, tanning lotions are the safest since they work by sugars interacting with dead skin cells to change the skin cells’ coloration. The only possible health risk is a rash or irritation when particular skin types react negatively to the formula. Usually the cases are so mild they are either self healing or can be aided with typical household remedies. People with sensitive skin are more prone to irritants but this is mitigated by testing on a small area before trying a new brand of lotion. The most natural and common way to get a tan is by sun bathing. The problem is that it can be time consuming and it’s not as even a tan as more controlled sunless tanning products can offer. Still the minor inconveniences are little problems compared to the serious health risks prolonged sun exposure can cause. If you spend too much time in the sun, there is risk of a heat stroke if you are not properly hydrated. Too much exposure to UV rays is also the leading cause of skin cancer. It is important that regular tanners, both natural sun and tanning beds, be aware of possible telling signs of early skin problems. Tanning booths can be more dangerous because of the high concentration of UV rays. Other self tanning products include a tanning pill that contains a chemical used as a color additive in foods. While the FDA considers it safe in small quantities such as food coloring, it is not FDA approved for use as a tanning agent. Serious side effects of consuming such high levels of this chemical is known to cause hepatitis and canthaxanthin retinopathy, a condition in which yellow deposits form in the retina of the eye, as well as damage to the digestive system and skin. Bronzers on the other hand are very safe. Similar to tanning lotions they don’t go beyond the surface of the skin and do not affect any chemical composition in the body. It works the same as make up and just stains the skin. A simple shower is enough to take off some bronzers. In the works is a synthetic melanocyte-stimulating hormone that activates the melanin production in your skin to create the pigmentation that occurs naturally from ultraviolet radiation. It’s being developed by a company in Australia. But in the end, tanning lotions with dihydroxyacetone, or DHA, are recommended by many health organizations for their very limited health risks. No harm in a sugar reacting to change the color of dead skin cells. About the Author:

Tanning Accelerators Exposed
Friday, June 19th, 2009| Scentsy | Flameless Candles | Wickless Candles |

So, do you have to have a tanning accelerator to tan? Are they worth the investment (because lets face it they can be very expensive)? This article is intended to parse fact and fiction about tanning accelerators. It is important to understand what is happening to your body when you tan. When your body is exposed to UV rays, your skin will produce melanin to help protect yourself from the rays. The sunburn occurs when your body does not make enough melanin to protect itself. Well, as you may be able to assume, tanning accelerators supposedly help expedite the melanin creation process so that less time is needed exposed to UV rays. The actual ingredients you should look for in your tanning lotion are Psoralen and Tyrosin. These two things are actually amino acids that speed up your bodies’ production of melanin. While tanning accelerators are not a necessity, they actually do really help. They speed up the process of tanning. For me, they even make my color more bronzey and less red. There are other products that claim to accelerate tanning besides lotions. Most notably, there are pills that make these claims. I have never tried these pills but I do know that there are a lot of critics who debunk the claims that the science behind the pills is sound. The best thing you can do is just to try the products for yourself to see if they work. Everyone’s biology is a little different, so what works for me may not work for you. My advice is to research ingredients and then find products with those ingredients. That way, you are not just buying the prettiest bottle or most expensive product and hoping that it works for you.

Tanning Bed Risks To Be Aware Of
Tuesday, June 16th, 2009| Scentsy | Flameless Candles | Wickless Candles |
|
The use of tanning beds on a regular basis carries many hidden dangers that some regular users may not be aware of. It is important that members of a culture that idealizes tanned skin be aware of the risks involved in this 5 billion dollar industry. A desire for some color in your skin is not out of the norm, but it becomes a dangerous fascination when people go to extremes not only to obtain a tan but when they try to speed up the process. The real trouble begins with the lack of regulation of using tanning beds. Like all things, tanning can become addictive to some people and like all dangerous addictions something needs to be done to minimize the harm an ignorant person can do to them self. Some salons have loosely enforced rules about usage but there needs to be a push for educating against the dangers, just as there is a need for education to fight drug and alcohol abuse. The negative effects mirror that of smoking. Cancers and disruption of normal body functions as well the imbalance it creates in the body are side effects of both over exposure to UV rays as well as smoking and other drugs. Drug induced photosensitivity heighten the effects of the tanning beds. The damamge to the skin begins with burns and dry, itchy skin. That is just the short term effect. Over the course of extended use, the skin ages prematurely and results in wrinkles and sagging not to mention the greatly increased risk of various forms of skin cancer. On average, the amount of damage cause by the UV rays are more profound than sun bathing since tanning bed users tend to try and speed up the tanning process by increasing the intensity and using tanning drugs as tanning accelerators to make the skin more sensitive to the rays. Manufacturers and advertisers irresponsibly push tanning agents on unsuspecting, and stupidly unquestioning, consumers. These drugs promise to accelerate the tan but the quantities that they are used to induce the intended effect are not FDA approved. As with everything a person encounters in life, it is important to educate ourselves about the pros and cons of any decision we make. Those looking to use a tanning bed need to be aware of the risk and the precautionary practices they should follow. There are safer sunless tanning alternatives that are much safer and do not cause long term health risks. Many health associations do recommend the use of DHA based tanning lotions, which do not interact with any part of the body beyond the top layer of your skin which consists of dead skin cells.
