I promised in the comments the other day to tell you how to get a beautiful tan. I think about protective equipment with SPF, about Coconut oil, about aloe gel you know without me, so I won’t talk about it. Since my “fad” is dietary supplements, I’ll tell you about additives that can be used to ensure that the tan “sticks” well, is even and beautiful.
Although I will make a couple of points. Before going to the sea or visiting a solarium, the body needs a good scrub. Any of your favorite mechanical scrubs, which I have already talked about a lot - we use everything! This is the key to the future smooth tanning!
What elements will be the most important for us in the context of tanning. Firstly, it is beta-carotene, which itself gives skin tone, which will enhance the effect of sun tanning. It will also protect the skin from UV damage. For the same purposes, as antioxidants, we need vitamin E and selenium. We will find all these three main elements in any multivitamin complex (you can choose from).
Everything seems to be. And let your vacation be beautiful, romantic and unforgettable!!! And you are sexy and healthy!!!
Few people know that certain foods can stimulate the production of melanin in the body. Including them in your diet will help achieve an even and beautiful chocolate tan. In addition, in this case, it will be much more saturated. So what is the best tanning vitamin?
You will learn about this by reading this article. In it, we will talk in detail about what exactly should be included in the daily diet. In addition, there are drugs designed specifically for lovers beach holiday.
How to diversify the diet?
The most useful vitamin for tanning is the antioxidant "E". It does not contribute to the production of melanin, but it stimulates the mechanisms that protect the skin from harmful free radicals, and therefore premature aging. Therefore, products containing it should be given preference in the first place. Before going to the beach, prepare yourself a milk omelette. This is a real storehouse of vitamin E. You can also make liver stew in sunflower oil or boil oatmeal in milk.
What should you take with you to the beach?
What other vitamin for sunburn will be very useful? Of course, antioxidants "A" and "C".
The production of melanin is promoted by the amino acids tyrosine and tryptophan, as well as the organic pigment lycopene. Take a bag of peanuts with you to the beach. It contains both tryptophan and tyrosine. Also, both of these amino acids are present in bananas. A large number of tryptophan is found in dates and fish. You can eat a couple of tomatoes before going to the river or lake. They are high in lycopene.
Of course, foods containing other vitamins should also be included in the normal diet. For a tan that is even and rich, beta-carotene (the precursor of antioxidant “A”) will be very useful. This substance is able to accumulate in the skin and give it a very pleasant golden hue to the eye. Especially a lot of beta-carotene is found in ordinary carrots. Among other things, eating this root vegetable will protect the skin from the action of free radicals.
The development of cancer prevents a substance such as selenium. In order to replenish its content in the body, you should include more seafood in your diet. Buy yourself two hundred grams of seaweed salad and take it to the beach with you. And, of course, do not forget about plain water. When you tan, your skin loses a lot of moisture. Therefore, you need to drink at least 1.5 liters per day.
Pharmaceuticals
Tablets designed to get an even tan are very popular in Europe.
In Russia and America, few people know about them. You can try to take them too. Of course, with a certain degree of caution and in reasonable quantities. These tanning vitamins, reviews of which are quite positive among European women, can be purchased online or at a pharmacy. For example, quite accessible means is Pharma Nord Bio-Carotène + E. This preparation contains 10 mg of vitamin "E" and 6 mg of beta-carotene. The Sun Water L "Eau Bronzante drink, which is still rare with us, is also very interesting. It contains lycopene and aloe juice. It is sold in packs of 9 bottles (one per day).
So, the most useful vitamin for tanning is "E". Also, beach lovers should definitely include tomatoes, carrots, seaweed, milk and eggs in their diet.
In order to receive from sunbathing maximum effect on the skin? you need to know some tricks. Tanning vitamins are natural and completely in a safe way how to ensure a beautiful body color for the summer.
How vitamins work
Everyone knows that the effect of dark skin is due to the activation of melanin processing. Accordingly, the more of this hormone, the more a person can tan. In our body, there are the following substances that help to increase the existing level of the tanning hormone - these are carotene, vitamin D, E and A.
The effect of vitamins on the body:
- Carotene promotes the appearance of upper layers golden skin. Thanks to its influence, the body not only receives maximum amount vitamin of the sun - aquadetrim, but also protected from exposure to ultraviolet rays;
- Vitamin E helps to remove free radicals from the body, which can cause the development of oncological diseases of the body;
- Substance A is necessary to protect the epidermis from harmful ultraviolet rays.
In addition to this main list, the most famous complexes also contain minerals. It is especially worth highlighting selenium and zinc necessary for women at any age. They are responsible for the most even tan color. At sea, from salt water and ultraviolet light, peeling of the skin can begin, in order to avoid it, focus on zinc and selenium. In addition, mineral supplements help fight redness and prevent burns, which is very necessary when visiting the beach for the first time.
Also when visiting the sea or other places with hot sunlight just need amino acids. A feature of their impact is that they are used by the body to activate the production of melanin and collagen. It helps protect you from dehydration and premature aging, evens out color and protects against burns. It is worth noting that if there is a possibility of increased pigmentation, then you should also drink complexes containing omega fatty acids or simply eat foods containing animal fat.

Oh, how many times women have called out for justice and prayed for an even, beautiful tan. And how many times our expectations were not justified. In today's market, every season there are many products that are aimed at making as many women happy as possible. And today I will try to tell about one of them in more detail, namely, about Imedeen tanning optimizer.
The topic of tanning is relevant not only in summer. In autumn, you want to look even better, so that colleagues and friends envy your chic and even skin tone, and white blouses look chic in the office. But not everyone manages to get it either at sea or in a solarium. And here various creams and dietary supplements come to the rescue.
"We didn't know each other until this summer." As they say, there is a first time for everything. Although I have naturally rather dark skin (like a true southerner), however, sometimes without purple hue does not cost. Do you know the situation when the tan is uneven, stained, some kind of blue appears on the skin, and the condition of the epidermis deteriorates sharply? I went through all this and now, finally, the solution to all problems!
IMEDIN® is a dietary supplement that is aimed at improving the condition of the skin, hair and nails. The brand is part of Pfizer. It was founded in 1849 in Brooklyn and is now headquartered in New York. Starting from a modest fine chemicals business, Pfizer has grown into a major pharmaceutical company and a global pharmaceutical market leader.
Application course
Imedeen tanning optimizer it is advised to start taking a few weeks before sun exposure and continue the course at 1 tablet per day for 1 month. And since there are 60 tablets in the package, I took the course with my dad to understand the effect. And my dad is the owner of a very dark skin tone, so his main problem is that chocolate tan does not work, blue appears.
The composition of the round tablets IMEDIN includes a mixture of carotenoids, including lycopene, beta-carotene and natural lutein (natural yellow-orange plant carotenoids). Thanks to this, the Tan Optimizer helps to prepare the skin for sunbathing and protect it from the aggressive effects of UV radiation. Vitamins C and E are antioxidants that help protect cell membranes and proteins and neutralize free radical molecules (prevent skin aging).
The effect impressed me. Since supplements came to me in mid-July, and I went to the sea already at the end, the preparation lasted only 1.5 weeks. Plus, at sea, I drank a pill every day and strictly followed the instructions. And in the end I got what I deserved :) Surprisingly, the skin did not become dry and dehydrated, as it usually happens after the sea. With the help of moisturizing body creams and Tan Optimizer, I was able to come home with, I’m not afraid of this word, perfect skin without rashes, allergies, irritations and peeling.
On the first day at sea, we were so happy with the sun that everything burned down to the state of the leaders of the redskins. And the merit of these dietary supplements is that they prevented peeling and after that the skin did not peel off. Indeed, the blueness on my father’s skin disappeared and a noble chocolate tan appeared, which did not go into a bluish tint :-D I noticed that the skin condition improved noticeably in 1 month, the tan lay flat without any problems. So now I plan to test it in the solarium!

Tanning vitamins are biologically active substances that enhance the effect of ultraviolet rays on human skin. As a result, the dermis quickly acquires a beautiful, even (golden, chocolate or bronze) shade. This "effect" is achieved by stimulating the formation of melanin (protective pigment) in the lower layers of the skin. In addition, vitamins nourish, soften the dermis, retain moisture, and prevent the destruction of collagen fibers and fibroblasts.
Nutrients eliminate the effects of the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation (neutralize free radicals), help to maintain a tan for a long time without harm to health.
In order for the skin to have a beautiful shade longer, you should abandon hot baths in favor of a contrast shower, do not rub your body with a washcloth, visit a solarium, moisturize and nourish it not only from the outside, but also from the inside.
Vitamin A - the main assistant to a beautiful tan
To get a bronze skin tone, most people go to the coast of the sea or river, where they spend days and nights under the scorching rays. However, prolonged exposure to the sun is fraught with the appearance of painful burns on the body, the appearance of age spots, dehydration of the dermis, and the destruction of collagen fibers. Interestingly, the outer cosmetical tools"Solve" these problems only by 50% (because they penetrate only into the superficial stratum corneum). For comprehensive protection of the integument, it is important to take.
The most important nutrient for the skin is organic. This substance stimulates the synthesis of protective pigments (melanins), as a result of which the body is painted in a golden-bronze color. In addition, beta-carotene accelerates the regeneration of damaged fibers, reduces the severity of sunburn, reduces skin sensitivity to ultraviolet radiation, controls the growth of horny scales, and strengthens the local immunity of the dermis.
The physiological need for carotene for an adult is 1-2 milligrams per day.
With an increase in the daily portion of the nutrient up to 3 milligrams, it accumulates in the horny substrate. As a result, the skin acquires a yellow-golden hue. This process is called carotenoderma. This phenomenon is absolutely harmless, since the epidermis is stained without the participation of ultraviolet radiation, and after the abolition of the use of the supplement, the pigmentation disappears.

Carotenoid food is consumed in the morning before sunbathing, together with a small portion of oil (5 - 15 grams), since vitamin A -.
To protect the skin 14 days before active exposure to the sun, it is recommended to take a preparation with beta-carotene ("Synergin"). It reduces the sensitivity of the dermis to ultraviolet radiation, helps to obtain a lasting, even tan. However, remember that the drug begins to act, they begin to drink it in advance (2 weeks in advance), otherwise it will not bring the desired effect.
In addition to the “stimulator” of tanning (carotenoid), it is advisable to use nutrients that even out and fix the shade in the dermis.
Substances that “hold” the dark skin color:
- And . The strongest antioxidants that absorb free radicals that are formed in the dermis under the influence of ultraviolet rays. With a deficiency of antioxidant factors, the barrier functions of the skin decrease, as a result of which sunburn appears on it (in severe cases, melanoma). However, only natural compounds are capable of providing a protective “effect”. Organic forms of vitamins: E - tocopherol, tocotrienol, C - calcium ascorbate, L-ascorbic acid. daily requirement in the first substance it is 25 milligrams, in the second - 1500 - 2000 milligrams.
- , . Regulators of the formation of collagen fibers, slowing down the processes of photoaging. Along with this, the substances prevent reddening of the skin, even out the tan shade, and reduce the risk of developing malignant neoplasms.
To maintain health skin it is important to consume at least 20 milligrams of zinc per day, 0.6 milligrams of selenium, 16 milligrams of iron.
- , . "Raw material" for the synthesis of melanin, from which a protective pigment is formed in melanocytes (skin cells).
Interestingly, the intensity of bronze tan depends on the concentration in the body.
The physiological need for tryptophan varies between 1000 - 2000 milligrams (per day), for tyrosine - 3000 - 4000 milligrams. Taking these substances is an excellent prevention of skin hyperpigmentation (vitiligo, melasma).
- Coenzyme Q10. A powerful antioxidant found in every cell in the body. The antioxidant prevents the destruction of elastin and collagen fibers (during tanning), slows down the process of photoaging of the skin, reduces the intensity of dehydration of the dermis, and “fixes” the bronze tint in the stratum corneum.
The daily portion of the substance is 100 milligrams.
- . Essential elements for the skin that prevent the development of hyperpigmentation, protect the dermis from free radicals, and prevent the destruction of collagen fibers and fibroblasts. With regular intake of acids, the skin looks "shiny", toned and moisturized.
The daily norm for the period of active stay of a person in the sun is 15 grams.
Remember, while sunbathing it is important to prevent dehydration. To do this, drink 150 milliliters of non-carbonated water every 30 minutes.
Given that sunburn "activates" the production of melanin, open areas bodies are most prone to hyperpigmentation. Antioxidant complexes are additionally taken to evenly distribute the substance in the skin.
TOP 5 best sunscreens:
- Sun protection capsules (Algologie, France).

The drink is taken in the morning, 1 ampoule.
Remember, taking antioxidant complexes does not replace the use of sunscreen.
Considering that vitamin complexes are taken in courses, antioxidant products will help maintain the acquired tan.
"Friends" of chocolate skin:
- Carrot. A natural source of beta-carotene, which helps to "delay" the tan on the body. To give the skin a golden hue, consume 150 milliliters of freshly squeezed juice daily.
- Apricots. The composition of the fruit includes "skin vitamins" (, B2,. The record holder among berries for the content of lycopene (a precursor of vitamin A).

With the systematic intake of seafood (2-3 times a week), peeling in the dermis is eliminated, tanning is accelerated, skin tone is evened out.
However, the benefits of this food are reduced to zero if you consume foods that inhibit the production of melanin.
The main "enemies" of tanning: marinades, pickles, chocolate, alcohol, sausages, smoked meats.
Conclusion
Tanning vitamins are substances that accelerate the synthesis of protective pigments in the dermis, as a result of which the skin acquires a uniform chocolate-bronze color. In addition, nutrients neutralize the harmful effects of ultraviolet radiation, increase collagen synthesis, and reduce the risk of developing malignant neoplasms.
The main vitamin for tanning is beta-carotene.
Natural sources of the substance are carrots, apricots, parsley, cabbage, mountain ash, sorrel, pumpkin. With the systematic consumption of these products (for breakfast), the horny substrate turns into a golden hue, and the natural tan “lays down” more evenly.
To enhance the desired “effect”, along with carotenoid food, oral antioxidant complexes are used (“Neiche Tan”, “Solar Cocktail”, “Beautiful Tan”, “Oxelio”, “Sun Protection”).
Control your time in the sun and be sure to use the necessary skin protection products. Do not stay under open rays for longer than your skin type and your health allows.
