How is a tan created?

Wondering how a tan is created? Well, theoretically, the mechanism is the same, but in practice, much depends onthe tanning products you use. A beautiful shade is achieved differently with bronzers than with tingling products. And these are just two of many ways to achieve your dream skin tone.

A tan is the result of UV rays penetrating our skin. They reach the connective tissue and dermis, where melanocytes—cells that produce the pigment called "melanin"—are located. Melanin reaches the skin's surface through the bloodstream. As a result of a chemical reaction, the cells responsible for color darken, creating a brown tint on the skin. But how does a tan occur using Onyx cosmetics?

Bronzers stimulate the skin's browning process.

Bronzers are cosmetics that stimulate the skin's tanning process. The substances they contain, reacting with amino acids, give the skin a beautiful, even, and healthy tan. Onyx professional cosmetics also contain anti-aging, firming, and anti-cellulite ingredients that will care for your skin's condition. It's worth noting that these products are completely safe, so you don't have to worry about the risk of redness or burns.

Cosmetics with a tingle effect

Tingle-effect cosmetics are another way to achieve a beautiful tan. The word "tingle" translates to "to pinch, to cause tingling." And indeed, after applying this type of product to the skin, you can experience a similar sensation. What's more, it's accompanied by a warming sensation. This is due to unique ingredients that intensify microcirculation and oxygenation in cells, thus accelerating the tanning process . They are primarily intended for those already tanned who simply want to enhance their skin tone.
