Stay away from perfumed or flavoured suntan lotions which smell of coconut oil or orange if you want your skin to stay young. These lotions contain psoralen, which speeds up the ageing process.

Take action: Rather use a fake-tan lotion to achieve a suntanned look. Avoid sun beds, which are as bad as the sun itself.
