Kona Tanning House Blend: The Hardest Working Product You'll Use


A Kona Tan has become synonymous with perfectly radiant skin tone, but do you know what a Kona Tan is doing for you behind the scenes? The Kona Tanning House Blend contains complexion-rewarding ingredients that encourage skin health and tone. One of our main ingredients is white tea extract, which scientists at University Hospital of Cleveland, and scientists at Case Western Reserve University have proven to be effective in boosting the immune function of skin cells, protecting them against the damaging effects of the sun. The discovery that white tea extract protects the skin from oxidative stress, and immune cell damage, adds another important element in the battle against skin cancer. White tea extract also appears to build the skin's resistance against stresses that cause the skin to age, as studied by Kevin Cooper, MD, Chairman of the Departments of Dermatology at UHC and CWRU.

Another great ingredient in the Kona Tanning House Blend is caffeine. Caffeine is considered one of the hottest new main ingredients in skin care products, because it provides the skin with the antioxidants it needs to promote glowing, tighter skin tone. Caffeine also acts as a vasoconstrictor and a diuretic, and for years has been a key ingredient in cellulite creams, dehydrating fat cells to make the skin feel and look smoother. Although dermatologists say that the caffeine in our product isn't enough to make you feel addicted, the way your skin looks and feels will put a big smile on your face and keep you craving a Kona Tan.

Of course we can’t forget about the benefits of Aloe Vera extracts. We see it in so many moisturizing products because it is beneficial for cracked and dry skin. Aloe Vera is able to nourish the skin and tissues with body-loving nutrients such as vitamin E and C. The aloe in the Kona Tanning House Blend gives a little boost of oxygen to skin cells, which in turn increases the strength and synthesis of skin tissue, helping to prevent the aging of skin. Overall, a Kona Tan provides great ingredients that will keep your skin happy - color aside, your skin will thank you!

Columnist Karen Salkin Reviews Kona's On-Location Spray Tanning



After recent losses and tragedies in our headlines and homes, Team Kona welcomed Karen Salkin's review of our mobile tanning like a breath of fresh air! Be sure to catch the full review below, but in the meantime, here are excerpts of our favorites to hold you over:

"Mr. X was so impressed with the color I got from Kona Tan’s secret formula that he bought a huge container of it on the spot!!! (He has tried sprays from other companies over the years, with not great results, so we already have the spray set-up. Now, if only he had Katie’s spraying talent, we’d be all set!)

"But there are other ways to get the signature Kona Tan, if you’re too shy for the sprayer to see you naked, or just don’t have time for the full treatment. The company has a range of products with which you can achieve either an instant or gradual tan yourself. I guess Mr. X didn’t even want me to see him naked because he chose to go with the do-it-yourself Spritzer for his tan. And it really worked!

"So, unless you want to spring for a trip to the Big Island itself, Kona Tan is the way to go to look fabulous, relaxed, and toned, which I did for more than a week after. So, if you see me appearing that way in the future, you’ll know that Mr. X got busy with his spray-gun. And Kona Tan’s perfect formula!"

Kudos for Avoiding the Sun - But Are You Getting Enough Vitamin D?



Deficiency of Vitamin D due to indoor tanning

Indoor tanning leads to the body not being able to produce enough Vitamin D, because of insufficient sunlight exposure. No need to panic, though, you can actually obtain Vitamin D from other resources, such as foods and supplements. Research has shown that in the long run, both oral and solar exposure of Vitamin D will travel down the same pathway, and result in the same benefits. The only difference is the dosage we get.

According to the Food Nutrition Board at the Institute of Medicine of The National Academies, which created the Dietary Reference Intakes (DRIs), people should be in-taking the minimum amount of vitamin D each day if nothing is being synthesized (no sunlight exposure):

 Children up to 13 years - 5 mcg (200 IU)
 14-18 years - 5 mcg (200 IU)
 19-50 years - 5mcg (200 IU)
 51-70 years - 10 mcg (400 IU)
 71+ years - 15 mcg (600 IU)

Vitamin D sources from food:
There aren’t many foods that contain Vitamin D, but here are some foods that are considered to be the best sources; some fish, such as salmon, tuna and mackerel, as well as fish liver oils. You can also find Vitamin D present in beef liver, cheese and egg yolks. Some mushrooms provide variable amounts of Vitamin D2.

There are also other sources that contain artificial Vitamin D, such as milk, yogurt, margarine, oil spreads, breakfast cereal, pastries and bread, can all be found fortified with Vitamin D. In the US, typical diets provide about 100 IU/day.

Vitamin D sources from supplements:
Choose a good D3 supplement, and as long as you follow the correct daily dosage needed, you’re good to go. It’s always easier to just let nature take its course, but it isn’t always realistic.

Causes of Vitamin D deficiency:
Vitamin D deficiency has been associated with increased risk of common cancers, autoimmune diseases, hypertension and infectious disease. Vitamin D deficiency can also result in thin, brittle, or misshapen bones.
