We all love a good tan, especially in the summer. Whenever we see someone with the tanned skin, we wish we could have been at the beach and looked like that. There have been so many occasions when we wish to wear a tanned look with the dress or at an outing but do not know-how. Most of us cannot afford to go on a vacation to get the suntan, but that should not stop you from getting the look. The skin products that are available in the market these days can help you get your desired look with minimum efforts.

What Can You Do?

You have to make sure that you trap that UV rays to get the desired tan. It is equally important to have products that protect the skin as well. The use of face wash for hyperpigmentation will help you to keep the skin safe from excess exposure. It is not something that will get you the tan, though. But before you make that choice of buying the product, just be aware that the market is filled with products that might confuse you. If you understand what each of these products is, then it will be easy for you to make a choice.

The lotions available in the market mostly have the details of the product. You are advised to read what the descriptions are to make an informed decision of whether to buy that product or not. Here are some of the most popular products that are even used by celebrities to rock the tanned look.

Hara started with a problem. I couldn’t find an unscented, non-stinging, water-resistant sunscreen that worked!

What makes me an authority on sun care? To tell you the truth, it’s just that I burn easily and I spend a lot of time in the sun! When my wife Sarah and I moved to Santa Cruz from Seattle a few years ago and I started surfing, bike commuting, and living in the sun in earnest, I found myself using two products every time I got ready to go outside. I had one tube I liked that worked as a sunblock, but it burnt my eyes (and smelled weird), and so I had also had to have another, slightly less effective lotion to use around my eyes. One day, I was wondering out loud why in the world no one had created a simple, all-purpose sun protection product that works (and doesn’t smell like a fruity Hawaiian cocktail), and someone said, “Well, why don’t you just buy some zinc powder and make your own?” Good question, eh? 

So that’s how I found myself researching ingredients and formulas, and experimenting with mixing them in my kitchen. I’m no chemist, but I’m a pretty good cook and it did not take me long to discover that an effective sunscreen can easily be made from just seven natural ingredients! When I finally had the perfect formulation, I started Hara Body Care to satisfy the need we all share for reliable sun protection made from simple, natural, effective ingredients.

Thanks for trying Hara!
