HEALTHY TANNING
Provocative Beauty Sunless Tanning is completely safe regarding skin and ocular cancer risks. All Pro-B cosmetic products have health approval certification. Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) the primary Pro-B tanning component has been examined and tested by the FDA (Food Drug Administration) with regard to health and safety and is approved for topical skin applications.
Pro-B is a focused skin treatment process with aloe vera, an anti-ageing formula, panthenol, vitamins and no parabens. It is not just a sunless tanning system
Testing has further shown that DHA is less toxic than aspirin, caffeine and even common table salt. Also note that unlike many spray tanning systems Pro-B does not create that fog of spray you find in conventional spray booths, so you don't inhale it.
DERMATOLOGIST STATEMENT MUDr. Eva Harapátová,explains:- (Practising dermatologist for 20 years)
"Cases of malignant melanoma skin cancer around the world are increasing, it is the most prolific of all cancers. The biggest factor of malignant cells forming is to expose your skin to UV radiation from either a UV solarium or the sun. UVA penetrates deep into the skin causing premature skin ageing (wrinkles) and the creation of malignant cells.
UVB reacts on the top layer of skin and causes redness, burning and browning. The browning of the skin is nature’s way of creating cells to act as a filter against the harmful rays to give some protection to your body. This process is “missing” in solariums, resulting in the harmful radiation being very dangerous for you.
This fact made me very pleased to have the opportunity to test and investigate the new Pro-B system from Provocative Beauty. This system offers a safe way of achieving an even looking spray tan without risk.
Sunless spray tanning is the only safe healthy tanning method existing to get an automatic natural looking tan whilst avoiding the sun and solariums completely. Or you can use one of the sunless tanning creams, but how to apply them to achieve a natural even tan is difficult for many people and its slow, needing many applications. But this unbelievable new system of spray tanning "Pro-B", where you enter the cabin and 5 minutes later you are out with your natural brown colour developing over a few hours, is healthy.
Of course sun creams with spf factors exist but even when using them, care needs to be taken to have the correct protection. The sun’s radiation supports and creates the environment for malignant cells to be produced and spf chemicals also support the growing of cancerous cells that have established themselves in your body.
Is it a new era of people's thinking? Will we now think more about our health? Provocative Beauty as a manufacturer of sunless tanning products could help us a lot so we don’t become part of the skin cancer statistics."
WARNING ABOUT UV TANNING SOLARIUMS Scientists at the IARC have now "proved and placed" ultraviolet radiation from sunbeds in the HIGHEST RISK CATEGORY of “carcinogenic to humans” — along with tobacco smoke, asbestos, benzine and formaldehyde.
The risk of skin melanoma (CANCER) is increased by 75 per cent when use of UV tanning beds starts before the age of 30. Additionally, it is proved that the use of ultraviolet-emitting tanning beds can cause ocular melanoma (eye cancer).
The American Cancer Society estimate that there were in excess of 2,000,000 new cases of skin cancer in the US each year and some 68,130 were melanoma skin cancer of which nearly 8700 with that particular type of cancer alone will die. More than 40% of all cancers are cancer of the skin (inc. melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer).
Institute of Cancer Research UK:More than 84,500 cases of non-melanoma skin cancer were registered in 2006 but it is estimated that the actual number is at least 100,000 cases each year in the UK alone.
