Golden Glow Sun Oil can help you to slowly build up a natural healthy tan if used in conjunction with wise, responsible sun exposure. Gradually introduce a little sunshine daily after winter, about 20 minutes daily to prepare your skin for the summer season. In summer 10 minutes is recommended. Daily sunlight is needed to enable the body to produce vitamin D. Vitamin D is important for healthy skin and bones, and for the absorption of calcium. We produce less vitamin D as we age.
Golden Glow Sun Oil is made with ingredients that you wouldn’t mind having in your blood stream, as our skin absorbs up to 70% of what we put on it.

Carrot Infused Oil (Daucus carota) in Soyabean Oil:
Carrot root oil is high in vitamin A and Beta-Carotene. Beta-Carotene is a natural antioxidant, which is believed to reduce the damaging effects of UV rays. Carrot Oil quickly produces a beautiful golden tan and better protects the skin against the damaging effects of UVR than chemical sunscreens alone. Carrot Oil has extraordinary skin protection and conditioning benefits derived from the high quantities of oil soluble carotenoids that it contains. Carotenoids are a class of easily assimilated antioxidants, which are present in a wide range of fruits and vegetables but most abundant in carrots. Antioxidants protect human cells from harmful free-radical attack. Free radicals are stray oxygen molecules that attack healthy cell walls and react with polyunsaturated fats to create a chain reaction of unlimited free-radical regeneration. Free radicals are produced by a wide range of environmental pollutants, including UVR. If left unchecked by antioxidants, free-radicals damage both the structure and function of cell membranes, resulting in premature aging, cancer and an array of degenerative diseases.Carotenoids, when either topically applied or ingested, directly reduce the damaging effects of UVR. Specifically, carotenoids have been found to enhance the body's immune response to UVR, decreasing skin damage from ultraviolet exposure. Carotenoids have even been proven to inhibit the proliferation of various types of cancer cells. Carrots contain over 600 identified carotenoids, making them an unparalleled source of antioxidants. In addition to carotenoids, Carrot Oil contains other powerful antioxidants such as tocopheryl, or vitamin E. Carrot Oil also acts as a natural tanning enhancer, producing a visibly golden tan in a short amount of time. The natural color of Carrot Oil is deep gold and will appear so in solutions containing effective concentrations (between 2% to 10%) the carrot oil in this blend provides a noticeably golden, even tan without any unwanted orange coloration. In summary, Carrot Oil used in combination with topical sunscreens provides more optimal protection against skin cancer and photo aging than chemical sunscreens alone.
