Use The Sunbed - But Use It Properly - ergoline ESPRIT 770 Dynamic Power Gebrauchsanweisung

Use the sunbed – but use it properly!
There a few things you need to know to get maximum enjoyment from
your sunbed. Here are some answers to some frequently asked ques-
tions.
Make-up on the sunbed?
Please don't. Clean skin absorbs UV light better.
Cosmetics contain a wide variety of substances. Whether emulsifiers,
emollients, or so-called scents - in conjunction with UV radiation, these
substances can cause allergic reactions of the skin.
Accordingly, a must before using a sunbed is: Remove all make-up. This
is essential. Make-up clogs the pores in the face. The UV light from a
sunbed re-opens these clogged pores so that not only does the light pen-
etrate the skin, but also the allergenic components of the make-up.
A further negative impact of make-up is that the appearance of the skin
deteriorates irreversibly over a period of time. However good a discreet
make-up might be - in conjunction with UV light, it causes more harm
than good. Therefore: Remove all make-up before a session on your
sunbed - it will look much better when applied afterwards.
Showering after the tanning session?
A tan is in the skin, not on it., which means you cannot wash it off. Treat
your skin to a moisturizing cream after showering.
Medications and sunbed at the same time?
It is known that some medications increase the skin's sensitivity to UV
light. This tendency is particularly high with antibiotics, sulphonamides,
psychotropic drugs, tranquillizers, anti-diabetics and diuretics. Sun
creams which contain psoralen or coumarin also increase skin sensitivi-
ty. If you are in any doubt, first ask your doctor - then you can enjoy the
sun at no risk.
Contact lenses on the sunbed?
The answer is: Yes! Like any other sunbed user, contact lens wearers
should also wear special protective goggles which protect the eyes
against UV radiation. To guarantee better protection, wearers of specta-
cles and contact lenses can ask their optician for disposable contact
lenses with UV protection. The UV-A and UV-B filters integrated in dis-
posable contact lenses will protect the cornea and the inner eye against
almost 100% of the energy in UV radiation.
This will benefit sunbed users not only in the open air, but on the sunbed
itself. You can wear these contact lenses even on the sunbed without any
restrictions. For more information, ask your optician or ophthalmologist.
