<h4 class="dechead">On One Hand: Spray Tans are a Safe Alternative to Tanning Beds
When compared to the proven dangers of natural tanning and UV tanning beds, spray tans are a much safer way to get that sun-kissed look. The most common chemical in spray tans that cause your skin to darken, dihydroxyacetone, is considered safe by the FDA.
On the Other: Make Sure You Apply the Spray Tan Properly
Sunless tanning products are safe only when applied to the skin. Ingestion and inhalation of spray tan chemicals through your mouth, nose or even through your eyes could have detrimental health consequences.
Bottom Line
Spray tans are among the safest ways to get that summery bronze look; just make sure it stays on your skin. Protect your eyes, nose, and mouth during application to prevent any accidental intake.
