Summer, one might say, has come today, so it is better to decide on the degree of tanning right now. If you perceive a tan as healing, from the point of view of medicine, then burning the skin to a bronze color is not necessary at all, it is enough that you walk from one stop of city transport to another.

And if we talk about the beauty of the skin, then someone would like to be white-skinned, and someone would like to admire their swarthy body. However, most people tend to the sun during the summer in order to make up for the lack of vitamin D in the body and hormones of good mood. By the way, for this you do not need to lie for hours on the sunny side of the beach, you can be under the awning all the time, and a good mood is guaranteed.

The sun's rays penetrate everywhere, even through the window. Therefore, choose a reasonable middle ground, despite the fact that Gabrielle Chanel convinced that a tanned body means an active, self-confident woman. After all, she always went against public opinion, and with regard to tanning, too.



The sun's rays can be both beneficial and dangerous. Medical research shows that excessive exposure to the sun is a risk factor for skin cancer, but at the same time, you cannot completely deprive yourself of sunlight. Most likely, even if you do not sunbathe purposefully, in the summer the sun will still find us, and you can be sure that we will get everything we need. But this certainly applies to those who live in the southern regions.

In the conditions of the northern climate, most strive for the sun, but one should be careful, especially since all northerners are white-skinned people by nature, and the sun's rays affect them more detrimentally than their dark-skinned counterparts.

In addition to the risk of sunburn, which damages skin cells, there are other aspects when you need to be extremely careful with the sun's rays. For example, some medications such as antibiotics, pain relievers, and psychotropic drugs under the influence of ultraviolet radiation can weaken the protective functions of the body.

Where did we come to? To sunbathe or not to sunbathe? Warnings have been made, the best thing is to find your sweet spot. And to become white-skinned or bronze, each of us will decide for himself. But everyone should protect their skin from UV rays. And sunscreen will help us with this.
