As summer approaches, two types of food supplements are available to you: self-tanning food supplements and sunshine food supplements. The formulas of the former are reinforced with pigments (carotenoids, amino acids) that stimulate the production of the substance that makes us tan: melanin. The latter are enriched with antioxidant ingredients, such as vitamin E or selenium, which protect the skin against free radicals produced by ultraviolet rays.
Before choosing your dietary supplement, therefore, determine whether you want a nice even tan without exposure, or whether you want to prepare your skin for the sun, in order to reduce the risk of summer sunburn or preserve the beauty of your fair skin.Oenobiol Self Tanner, as its name suggests, is part of the self-tanning food supplements. Ideal if you are not going on holiday this summer but still want to have a pretty apricot complexion, it is composed of 5 pigments (lycopene, lutein, turmeric, zeaxanthin, astaxanthin).
Beware, self-tanning and suncare food supplements do not protect the skin against the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays. When exposed to the sun, apply a sun cream with a protection factor adapted to your skin type!
