Getting that perfect tan is always a priority for some people. They can try out every method to achieve that glowing, even bronzed look.

There are different methods people follow to get tan. And tanning nude is one of the best ways to get that even-golden tan.

Tanning with clothes can prevent your whole body parts from getting tan equally. So, being a tanning expert in this article I will share with you some important facts about nude tanning.

I will also make you aware of the benefits and drawbacks of nude tanning under the sun or on a tanning bed.

Is Nude Tanning Considered to Be Safe?

Tanning nude is also safe as tanning with clothes on. But you need to be very careful before exposing yourself to the UV rays without a bathing suit.

Most dermatology and cancer societies like the Australia SunSmart claim exposing your body to the sun has both benefits and risks.

On the other hand, the American Academy of Dermatologists says that exposure to the sun is never safe.

Why Is It Better to Tan Nude?

The UV rays help you get tan and should touch every part of your body equally. An uneven tan can make you look ugly. Here are some other facts that prove why tanning nude is better.

Tan Lines: You will often notice tan lines on the body parts that the ultraviolet rays cannot reach. Wearing a bikini or covering some parts of your body with a piece of cloth causes these lines. Getting rid of the tan lines is quite difficult. But you do not have to face these problems if you go for nude tanning.

Avoid Allergy: Exposure to UV rays with clothes may cause allergies as sweat gets accumulated in the covered areas. But you will feel more comfortable and do not have to worry about allergies while tanning nude.

What Are the Drawbacks of Nude Tanning?

Besides the benefits shared above nude tanning has some drawbacks as well. Here, are some of the disadvantages of nude tanning.

Delicate Parts Get Burnt: Some parts of your body like the skin around your breast and genitals are quite sensitive. So, they tend to get burnt easily when exposed directly to UV rays while tanning nude. 

Need Proper Privacy: Nude tanning cannot be done anywhere. It can be quite difficult for some people to tan under the sun nude. You need proper privacy or you have to use indoor tanning beds for tanning nude.

UV Rays Cause Damage: Direct exposure to harmful UV rays can cause sunburn faster. So, you should avoid nude tanning if your skin has the tendency to get burned fast.
