Skin cancer is an ugly fight. Especially with melanoma, the winners are
rare. Melanoma never completely goes
away, and the risks of it coming back are always lingering. The only way to stop melanoma, or any other
skin cancer from winning, is to protect yourself from
contracting the disease. The only way to
do that is to stay out of the ultraviolet rays.
The price to pay for the “sun-kissed
glow” is not worth death. If you want to
be tan, there are many alternatives out there.
Industry is coming up with new, ingenious ways of looking tan without
ever setting foot in front of an ultraviolet ray. Some current alternatives are sunless tanners
that come in a bottle, mystic tan, which is a machine that mists you from head
to toe with a sunless tanning solution, and airbrush tanning which literally
involves a person airbrushing you with a bronzing concoction. These safe alternatives are a great way to
look
tan without all the damage, and if it
is the sun you sincerely enjoy, then indulge.
Just be sure you are protected in a sunscreen
of at least 15 SPF and you wear sunglasses.
If society insists on tan being attractive, then do it the healthy way, please;
for your sake and your loved ones sake
