UVA, UVB Rays and tanning beds

By now, everyone should be aware of the fact that the sun can do lots of damage; the deadliest being malignant melanoma. At Suvara, we have gone to great lengths to be able to provide our clients with the same sexy, healthy looking and natural glow that the sun provides. It has been our mission, our obsession and our pride to produce air-brush tanning serums that not only make your skin look luminous, but also protect it from the damage that may have already occurred. We do this with our outstanding ingredients, which are chock full of antioxidants that nourish your skin!


However, even if you still use our services, you'll still be exposed to the sun. Anyone that leaves the house...ever....should know about the dangers of too much unprotected exposure to sunlight, especially in summer and especially during the hottest times of the day- 11am to 3pm if you're EST.


What many people don't know is the intricacies of sun damage. UVA and UVB rays are different in the way they interact with their skin. UVA rays, for example, account for 95% of the UV radiation reaching the Earth's surface. They are less intense than UVB, but much more prevalent, and can penetrate through clouds and glass. UVA is the dominant ray, and the one primarily emitted by tanning booths. Tans cause cumulative damage over time, resulting from injury to the skin's DNA. The "tan"-the skin darkening- is attempt to prevent further DNA damage. This can cause mutations, which can lead to skin cancer.

The Skin Cancer foundation quotes:
"The high-pressure sunlamps used in tanning salons emit doses of UVA as much as 12 times that of the sun. Not surprisingly, people who use tanning salons are 2.5 times more likely to develop squamous cell carcinoma, and 1.5 times more likely to develop basal cell carcinoma. According to recent research, first exposure to tanning beds in youth increases melanoma risk by 75 percent."



And The LiveStrong Website states that:


"When evaluating a UVA versus UVB tanning bed in terms of damaging effects, there are trade-offs associated with each type. UVB rays are associated with more serious health effects, such as skin cancers while UVA rays are associated with skin damage--including wrinkling, age spots and fine lines."

So, as always, the conclusion we find yet again is that tanning in the sun or tanning beds is hazardous. Knowing all of this, remember to ALWAYS use UVA/UVB sunscreen. You need to be protected against both!

Want to look like you spent a month in the Maldives...or a weekend in the Hamptons?
Either way, we'll give you the perfect tone, glow and color to make you look fabulous.

Kim Kardashian Exclusive Engagement Photos

Oh, how we love Kim Kardashian. She's always got that perfect glow and she is truly a down tot earth sweetheart in person! Check out these stunning photos from her engagement party with Kris Humphries. 
The party was hosted by her younger sister, Khloe Kardashian Odom, who planned it only 3 days and will be the maid of honor! The party was attended by only close family and friends. The couple also had another party earlier on, with many more attendees.

Khloe Kardashian writes in her blog:
 "Hi dolls! Just wanted to share my pics from Kim and Kris’s engagement party that I hosted at my house. It was insane how quickly we threw it together — we decided on a Monday that we were going to have it and then it took place that Thursday! We are nuts but we all have such busy schedules that this was the ONLY time we could all do it. Even with just three days to pull it together, the party turned out fab and Kimmie and Kris loved it, which made me so happy!"

Her dream self-tanner has: Even, natural-looking color and gives me a golden glow with no streaks..

Describe the product in terms of:

Ease of use: It dried quickly with two coats. 

Messyness: It didn't feel sticky or rub off on clothes during the drying process.

5 Red Hot Summer Trends

Summer is on and it's HOT...but are you reaping the benefits of all it has to offer this year? We don't want our Suvara babes to go without, so we've devised this sweet little guide to get you in touch with everything you don't want to miss out on this season.  

1. EAT THIS: Healthy, Fresh and....Fried? Green Garden Fries
Try this SUPER YUMMY and healthy altnerative to french fries. Get the recipe here at BettyCrocker.com

2. WEAR THIS:
Adorable, Retro One Pieces with a Modern Twist

Straight from Harper's Bazar, this one piece is just a taste of all the juicy retro suits out there. Thongs are out and retro is in, ladies! Good news for those of us still working on burning off that post-post winter holiday fat.

3. DO THIS:
 Unplugged, checked-out getaway weekends (or longer)
 Raise your hand if you're dysfunctionally attached to your cellphone, ipad, ipod, laptop, etc, etc, etc? We're on overdrive in this country when it comes to technology, and our health suffers from it! (Not to mention our families...let's be honest,  many of us have answered texts when our child has been trying to tell us about her day at school) Why not pull the plug on all the crazy technology and just BE for a day or two? It won't kill you, we promise. Oyster.com has found some beautiful, lush technology free stays. Check them out here.

4. SWEAT THIS:
Hot body, hot summer, hot yoga:
 Still trying to melt down those pounds that are keeping you tied to the aforementioned Retro One Piece? Why not try HOT YOGA a few times a week to melt off those pounds fast, detox the beach cocktails out of your system and gain flexibility and balance for when you're trying out those surfing lessons.
Hot yoga is on the rise because it's proven to be a full body workout...everything from your organs to your gluts get a healthy detox, and after a month there is usually a noticable difference in how good you feel and look!






5.TRY THIS:
A sexy Suvara tan...instead of an unhealthy, cancer causing tanning bed or perhaps even worse, a dose of UV rays from the sun, get a gorgeous glow from the pros. There's a reason why everyone from Kim Kardashian to Paula Abdul has tried us...not only is it a great was to get a glow, it's also akin to getting a full body facial! Come on in and see us, and while you're at it, check us out on facebook!
