Have you ever caught yourself questioning why the tanning bed trend is making a comeback among Gen Z? In this episode of Tea with Tina, I explore this surprising resurgence and draw parallels to past risky behaviors like smoking. As someone positioned between Gen Z and millennials, I offer a unique perspective on how both generations influence lifestyle choices and delve into the complex relationship between skincare, UV exposure, and cultural trends. During a period marked by personal challenges, including illness and a family emergency, I reflect on how these experiences have affected my daily routines and insights on maintaining health-conscious habits. Join me as I share my journey back to normalcy, emphasizing the importance of real, relatable conversations about such trends.

With a critical eye on societal influences, I tackle the dangers of tanning beds, discussing the associated cancer risks and the legislative bans in place to curb their usage. We explore safer alternatives like red light therapy and spray tans, while debunking myths like the "base tan" theory. The episode also shines a light on the impact of influencers like Nara Smith and controversial figures like Gwyneth Paltrow, who shape perceptions of beauty and health. Listeners are encouraged to think critically about these influences and consider the importance of comprehensive sunscreen use. By sharing personal anecdotes and observations, I aim to educate and inspire a more informed discussion on maintaining healthy skin practices in the face of prevailing cultural trends.
