Today on Dr Dray, we delve into the treacherous world of tanning drops, a modern-day skincare catastrophe waiting to happen. The desire for a bronzed glow leads many down a perilous path of UV exposure, from sunbathing to risky tanning beds. But fear not, for the era of self-tanning topicals offers a safer alternative, albeit with its own set of challenges like uneven application. Enter tanning drops, the latest TikTok sensation promising a sun-kissed look without the hassle.
These drops, containing compounds like beta carotene and zeaxanthin, aim to mimic the effects of traditional tanning methods from within. While beta carotene from natural sources can benefit skin health, high doses in supplements pose serious risks, particularly for smokers and vapers. The allure of a quick, even tan from a drinkable solution may seem tempting, but the potential consequences, from a funky orange hue to increased mortality, are not to be taken lightly.
Furthermore, the unregulated nature of these tanning drops raises concerns about ingredient purity and dosing accuracy. Dr Dray highlights the dangers of untested substances like melanotan, often favored by bodybuilders seeking a dark tan. However, the side effects of melanotan, including priapism and kidney failure, paint a grim picture of the risks involved. In a world where TikTok trends can dictate skincare choices, Dr Dray's cautionary tale serves as a stark reminder to prioritize safety over fleeting fads in the pursuit of the perfect tan.
