Acrylic Tanning Woes

A Warning to Tanning Nail Polish Lovers

Acrylic nails can yellow if not protected from tanning beds.

Tanning beds emit ultraviolet (UV) rays which can cause acrylic nails to yellow. To protect your nails, you can coat them with a UV protectant or cover them with a sunblock.

If you do not protect your nails, they may become brittle and yellow. In some cases, the nails may even lift off the nail bed. To avoid this, it is important to take precautions when tanning with acrylic nails.

Here are some tips for protecting your acrylic nails from tanning beds:

• Coat your nails with a UV protectant.
• Cover your nails with a sunblock.
• Avoid tanning for long periods of time.
• If you must tan for long periods of time, take breaks to allow your nails to cool down.

By following these tips, you can help protect your acrylic nails from the harmful effects of UV rays.

Remember, it is always best to protect your nails from the sun, even if you are not tanning. UV rays can damage your nails, causing them to become dry, brittle, and discolored.
