We all crave that sun-kissed glow, but talk of tanning bed overuse, skin cancer, and premature ageing is scary enough to make people wary of sunbathing altogether. There’s no need to be frightened – instead, it’s better to become more informed about how to enjoy the sun safely. One way to do that is to trust quality tanning cosmetics<\/a><\/span>. For Estonians, Australian Gold is a brand that has long proven itself.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][porto_product column_width=”4″ use_simple=”” id=”24741″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][porto_product column_width=”4″ use_simple=”” id=”24748″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][porto_product column_width=”4″ use_simple=”” id=”24755″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][porto_product column_width=”4″ use_simple=”” id=”24762″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][porto_product column_width=”4″ use_simple=”” id=”24775″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][porto_product column_width=”4″ use_simple=”” id=”24782″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][porto_product column_width=”4″ use_simple=”” id=”24790″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][porto_product column_width=”4″ use_simple=”” id=”24842″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The largest and best-known tanning cosmetics brand in the world is Australian Gold<\/strong><\/a>, with a thirty-year history, focused on delivering maximally effective skincare throughout every tanning session. Australian Gold’s development and manufacturing centre is located in Indianapolis, USA. Alongside its tanning product line, it also offers an SPF-protection range that is an undisputed trendsetter on American, Canadian, and European beaches. Today Australian Gold products are sold in more than 50 countries, and the brand is available in Estonia as well. There are certainly rules to follow when choosing and applying sunscreen. The range of sun protection products is huge, so it’s worth doing your research beforehand to make sure the product you’re buying is high-quality and the company trustworthy. When choosing between spray, oil, or cream, simply go with whichever is most convenient to use. All Australian Gold<\/strong> products deliver a quality tan and effective protection. Sunscreen only works if you apply a sufficient amount to the skin – about 2 mg\/cm\u00b2 – and then spread it carefully so every area is protected from the sun. The process should be repeated every two hours. Myth or fact? You can’t get a tan while using sunscreen!<\/strong> SPF stands for sun protection factor<\/em><\/strong>, which helps reflect harmful sun rays away from the skin and prevents sunburn. Start by figuring out which SPF is right for you. That’s easy once you know which skin type you are. Anyone who wants to slow down ageing<\/strong> should definitely be applying a higher-SPF product to their face. It’s no secret that the most effective anti-ageing skincare<\/a> <\/span>product is sunscreen! If you don’t want to wait for a tan to develop and would rather look more radiant right away, choose a tinted tanning cream. That way you can head to the beach with an already-tinted glow and safely bring out your natural tan too. Australian Gold sunscreen gel SPF30 protects you from UVA\/UVB radiation. This spray-on tanning sunscreen gel contains natural caramel that instantly gives skin a bronzed tan. Exotic oils soften and moisturise the skin so the tan is even and lasts longer. Vitamin E protects the skin from the effects of free radicals. Aloe also leaves skin silky soft and improves its condition. Type IV<\/strong> – never burns, just tans quickly. You can choose a cream with slightly lower SPF protection, in the SPF 4-8 range. Don’t forget to moisturise and restore your skin after tanning. After-sun skincare is an important summer routine to follow if you want to keep your skin smooth and firm.
\nAll of the brand’s products are grounded in natural science and the ongoing work and long experience of the Australian Gold institute. That means a new product line is released at the start of every year, featuring both long-time favourites and entirely new, trend-setting products.
\nThe line offers over 100 tanning cosmetics products for tanning, sun protection, and after-sun skincare. For example, Australian Gold Intensifier<\/strong><\/span><\/a> is the brand’s flagship product, the world’s best-selling professional tanning cosmetic for 20 years running.

<\/strong><\/p>\nHow does Australian Gold help you enjoy the sun safely?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
\nHow do you recognise Australian Gold quality? <\/strong>You can identify all genuine Australian Gold products by the logo featuring the mascot, a koala enjoying the beach on a bronzed surfboard. The Australian Gold logo captures a beach philosophy full of fun and sunshine.<\/p>\nThe ABCs of applying sunscreen<\/strong><\/h4>\n
\nWhen choosing the right sun protection product, consider not just the SPF number but also the product’s water resistance. Most Australian Gold<\/strong> products let you enjoy tanning and water activities worry-free for up to 80 minutes, after which you should reapply a fresh layer of cream.
\nBesides choosing the right sun protection, there’s plenty more sunbathers can do to enjoy the sun safely. What should you keep in mind, remember, and definitely act on to ensure maximum protection?
\nOne simple thing you can watch for your own health and safety is when UV<\/strong> radiation is at its most intense (the national weather service portal lets you track UV indices with hourly precision!).
\nFor example, it’s well established that the UVB<\/strong> spectrum of ultraviolet radiation is most intense between 10am and 3pm – exactly when most of us enjoy the beach. So if you plan to catch some sun during that window, it’s worth being a bit more careful and choosing a quality sun protection product with the right SPF for you<\/strong>.<\/p>\n![\"australian](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/stage.ismile.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/australian-gold-n\u00e4okreem-spf-50.jpg?resize=354%2C354&ssl=1\")
<\/a><\/h4>\nTanning and sun protection questions and answers<\/h4>\n
\nMyth!<\/strong> The SPF in sunscreens doesn’t prevent tanning. It simply takes longer, giving your skin time to adapt. That way your tan also lasts longer<\/strong>.
\nMyth or fact? You don’t need sunscreen on a cloudy day.<\/strong>
\nMyth!<\/strong> A parasol or a cloudy sky doesn’t block the sun or UV radiation. Protection is still a must!
\nBefore that, though, let’s clear up what’s actually behind those exciting abbreviations, UVA, UVB, and SPF<\/em>!<\/p>\nWhat are UVA and UVB?<\/strong><\/h4>\n
\n
What is SPF?<\/strong><\/h4>\n
\nThe SPF number mainly reflects protection against UVB, not UVA. It shows how long you can stay in the sun without burning. Generally, 1 SPF equals about 15-20 minutes, though for people with fair, sensitive skin it may be 10 minutes or less. That’s why it’s very important to choose an Australian Gold SPF cream suited to your skin.<\/p>\nWhich strength of Australian Gold SPF product should you choose?<\/strong><\/h4>\n
\nType I<\/strong> – includes people with blue eyes and freckles who always get sunburned. Their skin quickly turns red and sunburn is basically guaranteed, yet the skin still doesn’t tan. Best suited to strong protection, SPF 30-50<\/strong>.
\nType II<\/strong> – includes blue-eyed people with blond or red hair. Their skin sunburns easily but tans only minimally. SPF 15-30 works well for protection.
\nStrong sunscreens with SPF 30+ to 50 should also be used by anyone with conditions that can flare up from sun exposure. Certain medications increase sun sensitivity, making strong sun protection essential during treatment. These include antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs, blood pressure medications, some forms of vitamin A, and certain antidepressants.
\nChildren should also use SPF 50+, since sunburns in childhood increase the lifetime risk of skin cancer. It’s also worth applying a higher-SPF cream to the face and hands, since these areas are inevitably exposed to more sun.<\/p>\n![\"australian](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/stage.ismile.ee\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/australian-gold-tooted.jpg?resize=985%2C290&ssl=1\")

<\/h4>\nDo you tan easily and quickly during an Estonian summer?<\/h4>\n
\nAustralian Gold spray gel<\/a><\/span> SPF 6 is a bronzing sunscreen gel; its SPF 6 protection shields skin from harmful sun radiation and prevents burning. The convenient pump bottle allows for maximum control, and the rich blend absorbs quickly into the skin for a fresh feeling.
\nThe spray contains kakadu plum<\/strong>, the fruit with the highest<\/strong> vitamin C content, also known for boosting collagen production and helping protect skin from free radicals. Tea tree oil<\/strong>, meanwhile, is a powerful antioxidant that helps gently cleanse the skin for a smoother finish. Sunflower seed oil<\/strong> and olive oil<\/strong> deeply moisturise the skin. Aloe<\/strong> soothes and cares for the skin during and after tanning. Caramel particles in the spray give the skin a rich golden shimmer and an instant subtle glow.
\nAustralian Gold Intensifier<\/span><\/a> Bronzing Dry Oil Spray<\/strong> is a tan-promoting tanning oil with bronzers that contains self-tanning components. The glow appears quickly, is a beautiful deep bronze, and lasts a long time. Suitable for use both in tanning beds and natural sunlight. The ColorBoost Maximizer<\/em> complex boosts and speeds up the skin’s natural tanning process. The formula, enriched with banana extract<\/strong>, enhances the tanning result and nourishes the skin. While the sun dries out your skin, the oil moisturises it. Natural bronzers guarantee an instantly beautiful, deep glow. Tanned skin becomes dry and fragile from sunbathing, so it’s important to replenish it with vitamins. This spray is enriched with vitamins A and E, which leave skin silky and nourished. The dry oil contains no sun protection or skin-harming mineral oils.<\/p>\nDon’t forget this after tanning during an Estonian summer…<\/strong><\/h4>\n
\nThe best modern (forget panthenol and sour cream!<\/strong>) after-sun care is natural aloe vera<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, whose effectiveness was already trusted centuries ago by Egyptian queens Nefertiti and Cleopatra, who used it as part of their beauty rituals. And it’s no wonder, since aloe contains over 200 biologically active natural compounds, including vitamins, amino acids, enzymes, polysaccharides, and minerals that help stimulate nutrient absorption.
\nAloe gel is extracted from the inner part of the aloe leaf. Because aloe’s pH is similar to human skin’s pH, it absorbs very well. Thanks to these properties, aloe gel is an indispensable remedy for burns and for especially sensitive or damaged skin.<\/p>\nAloe gel – a helper for sunburn<\/strong><\/h4>\n
