Sunless Tanning and Pregnancy – Is it safe?

It wasn’t long ago when being pregnant meant losing control of, not only your body, but your beauty. Women seemed destined to nine months of frumpy clothes as if it was necessary to give up all rights of feeling attractive to transform into motherhood. But that image is a thing of the past, thankfully. Now during pregnancy a woman can feel beautiful and be healthy. This is true when it comes to tanning, as well. Although the sun and tanning beds are definitely considered unsafe, sunless tanning is a very safe alternative.

Dr. Sandra Johnson, a dermatologist writes: “If you’re not feeling so attractive during your pregnancy, the look of sun-kissed skin that a self-tanner provides can do wonders for your self-esteem. The good news is that the ingredients in self-tanners are harmless, so it’s fine to use them during pregnancy. These lotions and sprays are basically dyes that stay on the surface of your skin and won’t harm your developing baby. Best of all, self-tanners have improved dramatically during the past few years, so you don’t have to worry about looking like an orange-skinned Oompa Loompa from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.”

Thanks to Sunless Beauty products, not only do you not have to worry about turning orange, but you don’t have to worry about the terrible smell that you’ll get with most tanners. Sun Silk Sunless Tanning lotion smells good going on and doesn’t have that lingering odor that we’re used to. That’s a very good thing, especially when your sense of smell is heightened during pregnancy!! So add to you’re pregnancy glow with a glowing tan…..be healthy and feel beautiful with all Sunless Beauty and MitTan products!
