Today, having a tanned body is fashionable. In pursuit of a tan, people not only travel to warm regions, but also resort to artificial options to achieve their goal - solariums. But how harmless is it? And do we all know how to achieve the desired bronze tan correctly, without compromising our health? One of the rules for safe tanning in a solarium is the use of special glasses. Read on why they are needed, and what will happen if you don’t use them.
Interesting! The fashion for tanning began thanks to Coco Chanel; before that, tanned skin was considered a sign of the lower class.
Why are glasses needed in a solarium?
Sunglasses in a tanning salon provide the same natural protection against ultraviolet radiation as sunglasses on the beach.. However, artificial radiation has a stronger effect than the sun's rays. Often people simply close their eyes while tanning, not knowing what harm they are doing to their body. When the eyes are closed, the skin of the eyelids is not able to protect them from the negative effects of UV rays.
Important! Sunglasses in a solarium are a necessity that will help maintain your health and beauty.
What happens if you sunbathe without glasses?
Health risks that we expose ourselves to if we do not use special glasses:
- changes in the quality of vision, up to its loss;
- premature aging of the eyelid skin;
- dry skin in the eye area;
- formation of wrinkles.
What do the doctor's say?
Ophthalmologists It is strictly forbidden to go sunbathing in a solarium without glasses. Often people neglect basic safety rules and do not protect themselves. Even by closing your eyes it is impossible to protect your body from harmful effects. The skin on the eyelids is so delicate and thin that it is unable to “save” the eyeball.
In addition, the appearance of facial wrinkles will not add beauty either. Dehydrated skin becomes flabby. That's why cosmetologists also “do not allow” the procedure to be performed without protective glasses.
How will this affect the face?
Ultraviolet radiation negatively affects the skin around the eyes, promoting dehydration and premature appearance of wrinkles. There is no need to be afraid that the tan may turn out uneven, with a lighter area around the eyes. If you use glasses with silicone temples, this effect can be avoided., and they do not leave marks on the face.
But if your tan turns out to be uneven, you can always use cosmetics to even out your skin color.
