Safe Tan Summer | British Skin Foundation | Skin Cancer

SAFETANSUMMER.COM TANNING THE NATION IN SAFETY

Safe tan summer began last year when beauty therapist Fiona Lloyd-Morgan discovered a suspicious mole on her 11 year old sons arm, the wait for the results of the biopsy were a total nightmare and it was then that Fiona realised how easily absolutely anyone could be affected by this and how important it was to make sure everyone knew the consequences of over exposure to ultra violet are; whether from the sun (by not using adequate protection) or by irresponsible use of sunbeds.  So she rallied beauty therapists from all over the UK who joined forces to spread the message and offer the perfect alternative; giving a beautiful tan with the benefits of good health.

The campaign is gaining momentum daily with more and more people becoming involved, with events being planned right across the country.  The events kicked off in Cardiff with members of the British Lions rugby team being spray tanned to raise awareness;

Mike Phillips said “I have never had this done before, but it is important that people realise how dangerous the sun can be”. 

Andy Powell says “These tans are great and much better than sunbeds because of the risk of skin cancer”. 

Darren Campbell MBE Olympic Gold medallist says “I am proud to support the ‘Safe Tan Summer’ Campaign”  and

Welsh Surf Federation says “We also push the message, providing free sun block to all our customers.  Our instructors show good practise, wearing wide brimmed hats when working too. Keep up the good work”.

The British Skin Foundation are working even closer with us to build on last years success, their marketing department is helping with all of the marketing and promotion of all the businesses involved in 2009.  Plus if you become involved this year, you can also receive 10% discount on your spray tan solution, from many solution providers including Sunless Solutions to make sure that the campaign is a huge success this year.  So it really will be an amazing campaign to be part of.

Skin cancer is one of the fastest growing forms of cancer in the UK today with over 100,000 new cases being detected each year resulting in over 2,300 deaths.   If we can prevent just one new case, then surely the campaign has to be declared a huge success.

Become involved, spread the vital message to everyone in your area, raise the profile of your business and have fun meeting new people and hosting events.

Sunless Spray Tanning

German scientists first recognised DHA in the 1920's when using x rays they noticed it caused the skins surface to turn brown when it was spilled.

In the 1950's Eva Wittgenstein used DHA as an oral drug to help children with glycogen storage disease. Eva also painted the DHA liquid onto her own skin, she noticed that the DHA did not penetrate beyond the Stratum Corneum.
Skin browning is non-toxic.

In the 1960's Coppertone introduced a lotion called QT, which was an overnight tan but the results were not good. it resulted in poor coloration, streaky and orange palms.

The Food and Drug administration added DHA in the 1970's to their cosmetic ingredients.

In the 1980's there were a lot of sunless tanning products on the market, these lotions were much more natural looking and it become much more popular and an alternative to UV tanning.

DHA does not damage the skin, and is believed to be a safe skin colouring agent.

Today spray tanning is a very popular beauty treatment, as more people are aware of the dangers of UV rays and the sun.
