Skin-Tastic – Sunless Tanning Lotions

by Victoria - 26. July, 2012 08:00

Spending time in a Sunless Tanning Booth at Sun Tan City gives you beautiful, bronzed color, and fast! But did you know that you can get even better results in the Sunless Booth by elevating your tanning experience with our Sunless take-home product line.

The VersaSpa and California sunless tanning lineup include several different lotions, gels, and exfoliants that can be used before, during, and after your time in our Sunless Booth. These products work on their own too, or with your regular UV tanning sessions.

VersaSpa Daily is a luxurious sun tan extender lotion that is made for both UV and UV-free tans. Daily even includes DHA, the same as in the VersaSpa sunless coloring formula, which deepens your bronze color and will leave your skin moisturized and firm. As the name implies, you can use it Daily as a regular color bump to your tanning routine. And, if you try and love this product, be sure to check out Shimmer, another tan extender and moisturizer that has a sexy sparkle. Consider Shimmer your go-to Summer Accessory!

VersaSpa also makes products to use before your Sunless Tan. Before you visit a Sunless Tanning Booth, we recommend exfoliating your skin to get the most even, long-lasting tan possible. The VersaSpa Exfoliator body polish can be used before your tanning bed or sunless sessions to gently remove dehydrated skin cells, leaving the freshest and cleanest skin possible!

And if your tan needs a touch up, look no further than the VersaSpa Bronzer Spray, an innovative, 360-degree spray that provides the perfect, easy to use, at-home accompaniment to your UV or UV-free tan!

If you have more questions about Sunless or Tanning products, be sure to ask a Tanning Consultant at your local Sun Tan City tanning salon! Happy Tanning!

FAQ: Do I need to wait to shower or swim after tanning?

by Victoria - 17. July, 2012 08:00

Ok, Sun Tan City fans, lets settle this once and for all: Is it okay to shower after tanning?

Our answer…it depends on the type of tan you get.

After tanning in one of our indoor tanning beds (like our Fast, Faster, Fastest, or Instant beds), you can shower as soon as you’d like! Because indoor tanning beds work by UV light penetrating your skin (and changing the pigment), your tan cannot wash away in the shower. Taking a shower, though, may cause your skin to cool faster, which will take away some of the reddening that is caused by the heat of the bed (which will fade, over time, whether you shower or not). It takes a few days for the full result of your time in a tanning bed to develop, so shower or not, you’ll see the best results later in the week.

Showering after a Sunless Tanning Booth visit is another story. Sunless tanning solution, even if tinted, takes hours to fully develop. Getting your skin wet or wearing tight-fitting clothing during you processing time can make you tan smear or become uneven. So after spending time in either a VersaSpa or MyMyst Sunless Tanning Booth, you should wait anywhere from 4-6 hours before not only showering, but swimming or sweating.

And that, fabulous readers, is the truth behind showering after tanning. If you have more questions about showering after tanning, stop by your favorite Sun Tan City and ask one of our Tanning Consultants today!

Tanning Tip: Bumping Up Your Base

by Victoria - 12. July, 2012 08:00

We’re here to help give your base tan a little TLC! And when it comes to bumping up your bronze, there are two easy ways to achieve your tanning goals: switch tanning beds and/or swap lotions.

Just like the rest of your body, your skin responds best when you switch things up! When you start a new diet, you get the best results when you eat a balanced variety of foods. When it comes to working out, the same applies. Just like with diet and exercise, your skin gets used to the tanning bed, which makes your base tan plateau after tanning in the same bed, with the same lotion even after only a few visits.

If you have been tanning in the same type of bed, like our fast bed, and you’ve noticed that you aren’t getting a richer glow, try upgrading to the faster or instant bed to break past your tanning plateau. The same applies even if you tan in our Instant bed. Your body needs variety!

It may also be time to try a new tanning lotion. Each type of indoor tanning lotion (bronzers, tingles and intensifiers) are designed to produce different results for your skin. Try switching types, rather than brands, of lotion, to get improved results when tanning. And during our Lotion Trade-In event is the perfect time to grab a new bottle.

For more recommendations on how to boost your base, talk to one of our Tanning Consultants at your local tanning salon. They will be able to give you specific recommendations on how to break through your own tanning plateau. Happy Tanning!
