Use the sunbed – but use it properly!
A few things need to be noted to get maximum enjoyment from a sunbed.
Here are some answers to some frequently asked questions.
Make-up on the sunbed?
Please don't. Clean skin absorbs UV light better.
A wide variety of materials is found in cosmetics. Again, whether these
are emulsifiers, greases, or so-called scents – in conjunction with UV ra-
diation, these can cause allergic reactions of the skin.
Accordingly, a must before using a sunbed is: Remove all make-up. This
is essential. 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 pen-
etrate the skin, but also the allergenic components of the make-up.
A further negative consequence of make-up is that the appearance of the
skin deteriorates irreversibly over a period of time. However good a de-
cent make-up might be – 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 leaving the sunbed?
The browning is in the skin, not on it. Therefore you cannot wash it off.
Treat your skin to a moisturizing cream after showering.
Are medications and the sunbed compatible?
It is known that some medications increase the skin's sensitivity to UV
light. This probability is particularly high with antibiotics, sulphonamides,
psychiatric drugs, tranquillizers, anti-diabetes treatments and diuretics.
Sun creams which contain psorale or kumarin also increase skin sensi-
tivity. If you are in any doubt, first ask your doctor - then you can enjoy
the sun 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 exchange contact lens-
es 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.
Which tanning times are recommended?
Although there is virtually no reason to worry about sunburn with the UV
tanning method, some consideration should initially be given to individual
skin sensitivity.
