Baking in the sun to get a tan is obviously a bit risky and tanning beds seem worse. As it turns out, most spray on tans are not such a great alternative either because the chemicals they contain can be absorbed by the body. Bobbi Vitality joins us to talk about all that and what constitutes a truly natural spray taout n. That kind of healthful tan that can applied with special equipment (for home or professional) or with a can of instant tan. As usual, (bless his heart) Bobbi has said he will have a terrific deal for our listeners. (By the way, those of you in range of Plano Texas can check natural spray tans at the Vitality Life Center.) Even a nice tan won’t cover up poor health because true wellness starts in the gut and shines all the way through to the skin. Kat James, the author of The Truth About Beauty learned those lessons the hard way and shares her knowledge in transformation retreats.
