As soon as Summer comes around and the sun starts radiating summer heat all around, everyone gets their beach bag, blanket, umbrella, sunblock, and hit the beach to soak up that sunshine to get that golden honey tan.
Everyone at the beach tries to get a little tanned during the summer. But exposing our skin to intense summer heat ends up damaging our skin to the extent very it can not repair. Tanning is caused by UVA rays that penetrate into our sink and cause our skin cells to age prematurely. Tanning not just causes damage to our skin but also makes signs of aging visible at a fast rate.

Tan |
The best way to avoid a tan in summer or in the sun is to use sunblock with SPF 50 and apply sunscreen before heading out, avoid getting out in harsh summer heat. Even if you have a tan you don't need to worry about it, staying indoors and looking after your skin can return ur skin color but the damage caused by UVA is hard to repair.

The best way to get rid of a tan is to exfoliate using a scrub twice in a week and to keep your skin moisturized all the time. Tan is never permanent, it takes 7-10 days for the skin to exfoliate and regenerator.
