How To Sleep In Your Spray Tan

by on


Have you ever slept in a fresh spray tan, and ended up with one of your hands being much darker than the other? Here's why: We all perspire while we sleep, and if you go to bed with a fresh spray tan, whatever skin on skin contact you have will cause a transfer of tanning solution. For example, if you always sleep with your hand between your knees, and you go to bed after getting a spray tan wearing shorts, chances are you'll probably end up with that hand between your knees at some point during the night. When you perspire, tanning solution will transfer from your knees to either side of your hand, and cause unintentional staining that is very difficult to remove. We like to use Windex and a warm, wet wash cloth to exfoliate away the unintentional staining.

The Kona Tanning House Blend is a water soluble product, and washes out of most fabrics. However, the tanning solution could stain Silk, Nylon, Wool and Polyester. Since there is a bronzer in the spray, it is best not to wear your favorite expensive clothing until after your tan has developed, and the bronzer has been completely rinsed off. If you are sleeping with the bronzer on your skin and allowing your tan to develop while you sleep, it is best to wear loose pajamas, and lay a towel over your pillow to prevent any bronzer transfer due to perspiration while you sleep. Try to avoid any skin on skin contact while you sleep – even with others! After you have rinsed the bronzer away, there will not be any rub-off or transfer of the tan.

How To Keep The Bottoms Of Your Feet Clean When Spray Tanning

by on

What do you think of when you hear "spray tan feet?"  Do super-dark (and I mean DARK!) bottoms of your feet ring a bell?  At Kona Tanning Company we learned early that standing on a damp towel prevents tanning solution from absorbing into the feet.  Tanning from home with a self-tanning lotion or bronzing spray?  The damp towel will also work wonders for you!  Just be careful when you're discarding the towel, as water splashes are a totally different can of worms! 

So dampen those towels and tan away!

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

by on


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.
