Sally Foran: Spray tans are making a comeback — here's why 

Today's spray tan formulas are a world away from the orange hues and sticky finishes of the past. Poco Beauty founder Pippa O'Connor Ormond shares why the brand entered the spray tan market and her top tips for achieving a natural-looking, healthy glow.

A tan is your skin’s response to DNA damage caused by UV radiation. While many people still see it as a sign of health, it’s actually evidence that your skin has been damaged. Although sunburn causes more severe acute damage, tanning also increases your long-term risk of skin cancer and accelerates premature skin ageing. The only safe way to achieve a bronzed glow is from a bottle.
