If you've ever visited a tanning salon, looking for that perfect, year-round tan, chances are you've seen a sign prohibiting outdoor tanning oil in the tanning beds. The reason being that most outdoor tanning oils contain mineral oil, which breaks down the acrylic lining of the tanning bed.
Any amount of mineral oil can erode the acrylic. Now, this begs the question of why are we slathering ourselves in a substance that can erode acrylic? We ask this very same question. Mineral oil has long been used to enhance the skin's natural tanning process, however, if avid tanners knew the truth of the product, alternatives would become much more appealing.
According to the National Institutes of Health, mineral oils are chemical substances prepared from crude petroleum oil. Not the best origin of skin care ingredients, right?
Tan Bandit is different. Our tanning oil does not contain mineral oil, or any other parabens. It is safe to use in tanning beds and, more importantly, it's safe for your body.
Ditch the mainstream tanning oils and invest in your skin's long-term health and safety. Tan Bandit's 100% organic and natural ingredient list is one that we're proud of and encourage you to learn more about!
