Lotions ARE worth it -- Here's why Tanning lotions are more than just a "nice to have" - They are a must. Here are three scientifically proven reasons for using tanning lotions.
*You loose 5-8 minutes of your indoor tanning time when you do not use an indoor tanning lotion.
*Your tan producing cells, melanocytes, are below the surface of your skin. These cells must be moisturized directly to produce the browning agent melanin.
* When you tan, your skin produces bacteria. This bacteria can produce white spots that do not tan and may cause an unpleasant odor. Scientifically - tanning lotions reduce these bacteria by allowing the skin to tan evenly without odor or spotting.

Tan Maximizer – A formula designed to hydrate, condition and enhance melanin production in the skin during UV-exposure for maximum, ultra-dark tanning results. Contains a maximum level of tanning and skin care ingredients to create a base tan or darken an existing one.
Bronzer – A combination of DHA sunless tanner and tan accelerator, intensifier or maximizer ingredients to enhance melanin production in the skin during UV-exposure and further darken skin after UV-exposure, resulting in a faster development of a darker, longer-lasting tan.

Dual Bronzer – A bronzer combined with skin darkening extracts to further enhance the tanning process, help prevent streaking and prolong the life of a tan. See also Bronzer. Note: Clean hands after use to avoid discoloration!
Sunless Tanner – Creates the appearance of a tan without UV-exposure. The principal ingredient, DHA, reacts with proteins on the surface of the skin to create the look of a tan by staining the upper layers of the skin. Sunless color takes 4-6 hours to develop and can last 3-5 days. Note: Clean hands after use to avoid discoloration. It is recommended to exfoliate prior to application to avoid blotchiness and ensure smooth, even color.
Warming (Tingle) – Contains Capsicum Annuum Extract and Nicotinate to help stimulate circulation on the surface of the skin, creating a slight redness and warming/tingling sensation that enhances the intensity and appearance of a tan. The effect is temporary and can last up to several hours. Caution: Not to be used on the face, by beginner tanners or those with sensitive skin. See also Capsicum Annuum Extract.
Hot (Tingle) – Contains Nicotinates that help stimulate rapid circulation on the surface of the skin, creating an extreme redness and warming/tingling sensation to enhance the intensity and appearance of a tan. The effect is temporary and can last up to several hours. Caution: Not to be used on the face, by beginner tanners or those with sensitive skin. See also Nicotinate.
Ice Hot (Tingle) – A combination of menthol crystals and skin stimulators to create an instant icy feel on the skin followed by a slight redness and warming sensation. The effects are temporary and can last up to several hours. Caution: Not to be used on the face, by beginner tanners of those with sensitive skin.
Cool (Ice) – Utilizes menthol crystals to create a brisk, cooling sensation on the skin that can last up to an hour.
Refreshing (Crystal) – Formulated with a small amount of menthol crystals and other skin refreshers to create an instant, brief cooling sensation to the skin, leaving it feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.
Shimmer – A formula enhanced with a blend of mica and titanium dioxide that provides a subtle luster and luminous glow to the skin.
Moisturizer – A formula that provides skin with hydration, nourishment and conditioning. Daily use helps keep skin smooth, soft and younger looking and can help extend the life of a tan.
