Belfast-based influencer Shannon Mitchell has expressed concerns over the massive increase in TikTok videos promoting the use of sunbeds and tanning products.
A Belfast content creator has raised concerns about the surge of TikTok videos promoting sunbeds and tanning products, including nasal sprays.
During that time, she suffered side-effects such as premature skin ageing and an increase in the number of moles. She also expressed regret over her use of nasal sprays, which are often endorsed alongside products such as tanning injections. Speaking to OK!, Victoria Evans, Education Manager at Dermalogica, said: "Sunbeds are not safe and that’s a fact. There is so much evidence to prove sunbeds give out the same harmful UV rays as the sun but at a much greater intensity, often 10-15 times higher than the midday Mediterranean sun.
