Do tanning tablets work?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Tanning Pills normally contain an ingredient call L-Tyrosine. This ingredient helps increase melanin production. The more melanin that is created...the more it will rise to the surface of your skin. In basic terms...UV Light will cause the melanin to react, darken & spread out on the skin. Thus a tan is created.

The body naturally produces melanin...but kick starting the production using a tanning pill will work. Note: This same ingredient is also in almost all indoor tanning accelerators that are available for purchase when visiting a tanning salon. Whether applied topically or ingested, it basically works the same.

Is suntan lotion a homogeneous mixture?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, suntan lotion is a homogeneous mixture. All of the ingredients are evenly distributed throughout the lotion. If you took a sample from the top of the bottle it would be the same as a sample that you took from the bottom of the bottle, or any other place in the bottle.

On a molecular level, suntan lotion is a mixture of many different ingredients, so it is heterogeneous in composition.

What can you use if face is dry and peeling?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

To properly treat dry skin requires deep moisturizing. In other words...... ......you must be able to moisturize both the epidermis and dermis of the skin. The epidermis is the top layer of skin. It is made up of dead cell. And it's main purpose is to protect underlying skin cells and tissue. The dermis is the lower layer of skin. And it comprises of: 1. living skin cells 2.blood vessels 3. nerves 4. and hair follicle This layer keeps the skin alive and functioning. Now to properly treat dry skin you will need: A. a normal Moisturizer B. and also a Deep Penetrating Serum An normal-everyday moisturizer will treat the epidermis. And most of us familiar with these products. We use them everyday. However...... ...... if facial moistuirizers are used alone.....then your face will still feel dry and tight. This is due to a lack of moisture at the dermis level. But this is where a deep penetrating serum comes in. Serums are designed to penetrate and moisturize deep into the skin. They are ideal for treating the dermis. So add a moisturing serum to your skin care routine if your skin is dry. It'll help improve your condition.

What does it rubs the lotion on it's skin or else it gets the hose again mean?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The phrase, 'It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again' is taken from a scene in the horror movie 'The Silence Of The Lambs'. It is a line spoken by serial killer Buffalo Bill to his victim, Catherine Martin, who is being kept in a pit in Bill's basement. Bill is threatening Catherine with the torture of being hosed by cold water unless she applies lotion to her body. Bill 'skins' his victims, and the lotion keeps the skin malleable and hydrated to facilitate its removal. The phrase became somewhat of an Internet meme after it was recited by the character Stewie from the television show Family Guy, as well as the character Cartman from South Park, both seeming to allude (in a comedic way) to a dark and disturbed side of the character. Lulz may be achieved if the phrase is used in a situation where one person has complete control of another persons actions.

What are functions of hand lotion?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The function of a hand lotion is to replace natural oils that are removed from the skin due to washing-up dishes, especially if plastic gloves are not worn. The lotion helps to protect the skin from chapping and cracking - often a greater problem during cold winter weather - and keeps the skin supple.

Applying an oil based moisturizing cream twice daily is really important to get on top of this problem.Avoid open backed shoes or thin soled shoes.

Never try to reduce the hard skin your self with a razor blade or a pair of scissors. There is a risk of an infection developing and taking too much off. A pumice stone can be used to reduce the thickness of the hard skin. stone can be used to reduce the thickness of the hard skin. Try the following home remedies for softening dry callused feet instead of buying expensive products that might not work. # Soak your dry callused feet once a week in a large dishpan or similar container filled with warm water, a drop of dishwashing liquid, and approximately one cup of white vinegar. Soak them for about a half hour.

After soaking, rinse your feet, and thoroughly pat them dry. Apply your favorite lotion especially formulated for very dry skin, and put on a pair of clean cotton socks. This is one of the best doctor recommended home remedies for dry callused feet. # For those who don't care for the smell of vinegar, try soaking your dry callused feet in a soothing solution of baking soda and warm water. Add about ½ cup of baking soda for every gallon of warm water, and stir the solution until the baking soda dissolves. Soak them for about a half hour.

After soaking, rinse away the baking soda, and pat your feet dry. Generously apply dry-skin lotion of your choice, and cover them with a pair of clean cotton socks. # You can let your favorite lotion work to end dryness and slacken dead skin all night long. Before going to bed, generously apply lotion to your feet, and protect sheets and blankets by slipping on a pair of breathable clean cotton socks. You'll awaken to softer feet, and after several nights, your once dry callused feet will be much softer and exceptionally smooth. # Soak feet in very warm, soapy water for 20 to 30 minutes just before bedtime. Rinse and dry feet well and apply a thick layer of "heel cream" that is formulated to soften calluses. Choose a product with an acid-free exfoliant and rich moisturizers. Avoid wearing socks made out of synthetic materials such as rayon, and wear well padded footwear at all times to prevent dry cracked heels. Synthetic materials don't let skin breathe and further contribute to the dryness problem. Individuals with diabetes or poor circulation should consult their regular doctor or podiatrist before beginning a foot care regimen. If foot problems persist, see a doctor to rule out these and other more serious conditions.

Can self tanning lotion prevent you from tanning?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Nothing will completely block all UV light and stop you from tanning. An SPF will simply delay the amount of time it takes for you to receive MED's (minimal erythemal dosage). So in theory, a SPF 30 vs an SPF 8 will allow you to spend more time in the sun and delay the tanning process(by minimizing the penetration of UV light)
