Tanning intensifiers: what are they for?

A healthy, long-lasting and uniform tan is obtained gradually after about 7-10 days of sun exposure.

Once you have a beautiful complexion, you can intensify it with creams, oils and balms formulated with substances that can promote melanin production (a pigment responsible for tanning).

Tanning intensifiers usually contain tyrosine, which makes the melanin produced by the skin more available and optimizes the stimulation of sunlight.

Among the ingredients are often substances that can help melanin in photoprotection, such as beta-carotene.

Tanning intensifiers do not generally contain sunscreens, so it is important to continue to protect yourself with a photoprotector and not to expose yourself too much to the sun, especially avoiding the hottest hours of the day.
