Tanning Bed Lotions - For Skin Care And Better Tanning

By: Trevor Mulholland Home | Health-and-Fitness | Beauty


Serious tanners get very serious about their tanning bed lotions! There are so many tanning bed lotions on the market today that it is often hard to determine which lotion is the right lotion for you. There are lotions that ensure deeper darker tans. There are lotions that promise to prevent wrinkles and even diminish wrinkles. There are lotions that swear that they prevent premature aging of the skin. There are lotions that promise to do all sorts of things but do they really?

In a word no. What they do is make your skin a bit softer. They also help to reduce the skin drying affects of the UV rays which does cause wrinkles and aging. So, maybe in a sense, they do what they actually claim to do. But if you are a forty year old woman, the chances are very good that tanning with a tanning lotion that promises to reduce wrinkles is not going to have you walking out of the salon looking thirty! Just don't buy into the hype. Find a good tanning lotion that helps you tan a little faster, while keeping your skin moisturized. Tanning oils are not recommended for indoor tanning beds creamy lotions that are easily absorbed into the skin are the way to go.

Tanning indoors is vastly different from tanning outdoors. You cannot use the lotions that you use outdoors in tanning beds. Outdoor tanning lotions and oils are designed to stand up to wind and long hours in the sunshine. They are not designed for people who intend to be fully dressed in their street clothes fifteen or twenty minutes after applying the lotion! A good indoor tanning lotion is required, as opposed to an outdoor tanning lotion.

Indoor tanning lotions are designed for people who will be getting dressed again in less than half an hour. Many of them don't even have that 'tanning lotion smell' to them. This is a good thing for many tanners who use their lunch hour for tanning sessions! For many, it just wouldn't do to arrive back at the office smelling like you've spent the morning at the pool! You can even purchase indoor tanning lotions that have no scent at all! With a good indoor tanning lotion, you should be able to apply the lotion, spend fifteen or twenty minutes in the tanning bed, and then put on your street clothes without worrying about getting the lotion on your favorite silk blouse!

Tanning lotions can be quite expensive. Indoor tanning lotions are a great deal more costly than outdoor tanning lotions simply because salon tanning has become so popular in recent years. You can save money by not buying your lotion from your tanning salon or even from a tanning bed dealer! Instead, get closer to the source by shopping online at the wholesale tanning suppliers websites. Tanning lotion does not go bad after a period of time as long as the container remains closed. This means that you can comfortably purchase your favorite tanning lotion in bulk, at a greatly reduced price!

Before using any new tanning lotion, apply just a little bit to one small area on your body, and then wait twenty four to forty eight hours before tanning, and before applying more lotion. This will help reduce the risk of having a bad skin reaction to the lotion. If a small rash appears or if red dots appear where you applied the lotion try a different lotion, in a different place on your body. This is especially important for people with sensitive skin or allergies.

Keep in mind that tanning lotions are made of chemicals, and your body is also made up of chemicals. Some chemicals simply do not react well together when they are combined. Not only can this result in skin irritation or rashes, it can also mean that the lotion cannot possibly do what it was designed to do. A lotion that works well for your best friend simply might not work well for you. Likewise, a lotion that works well for you may not work well for you friend. We are all different, and it may take quite a bit of trial and error to find the right indoor tanning lotions that work best for you.
