Does tanning lotion work in tanning beds?
Tanning accelerators DO help quicken the tanning process. Dry skin will reflect the UV rays that make you tan. By using the accelerator, the UV rays get absrbed into the skin, making you tan faster. TANNING WITHOUT LOTIONS IN A TANNING BED IS A WASTE OF TANNING TIME AND MONEY!
Yes UV light (which causes you to tan) will pass through the first few inches of water - many people actually get sunburn while bathing because they do not feel themselves getting hot - but the sun still burns them.
Does a tan on your body last forever?
If you die with a fake tan it will not last. The body will begin to decompose and the skin will fade and discolor.
What happens if you tan without protective goggles?
definitely NOT!!! the UV rays from the tanning bed (if you are using one) are too powerful for your eyes...well i mean that if you DON'T wear eye wear (goggles or some other form that the salon gives you) then the UV rays can actually harm your eyes...it could cause blindness, or other means of loss of vision such as night blindness or blurred vision...so you answer is NO it is not safe to go tanning without eye wear. No
What should you put on a sun burn?
Aloe vera is good. Noxzema is good. A spray like Solarcaine is good too.
1) Come into shade as soon as possible.
2) Apply cold cold low fat milk/curd to the affected area of the skin--it cools the burn and milk has healing ingredients.
3) Take a benedryl.
3) Visit a doctor if the sun-burn does not subside in few hours.
A sunless tanning booth is a small room where the client tans by either receiving a spray tan or by using a tanning bed. Tanning beds are controversial, particularly for their use among teens, because of concerns about the risk of developing skin cancer from their use.
While the tanning beds used to work using UVB rays, salon owners switched to using beds that emit UVA rays, believing them to be safer. Sadly, it is UVA rays that are associated with development of skin cancer.
Another kind of sunless tanning booth is much safer: The tanning spray booth. Currently, spray tans are found at high-end salons and can run up to $100 for a few one-hour sessions.
A sunless tanning booth that uses spray instead of a tanning bed works via use of a spray containing dihydroxyacetone (DHA.) DHA is applied in a fine mist to the entire body of the customer. DHA reacts with dead skin cells on the surface of the body, causing them to turn brown. Most tanners who use the spray method report good, realistic results and excellent coverage. The spray-on tans last five to seven days, typically.
Currently, there are two sunless tanning booths on the market. Though both booths use a spray technique to evenly coat the body. The drops work as little magnets, collecting on the body and repelling other drops so the tan lays evenly on the skin. The equipment spray the formula for 14 seconds on each side of the body, tanners can achieve a dark, tan appearance without ultraviolet rays."
Where can one purchase cheap home tanning beds?
The most affordable tanning beds are those that are used, for instance those that are used and discarded from actual tanning salons. They cost several thousand dollars still.
No it doesnt.. it just stops u from burning in the sun! The SPF numbers are how long you can stay in the sun without starting to burn... so in theory the higher the number the longer it will take to burn. U will tan regardless! x
How can you get tanned without fake tan?
There is no way to get a quick successful tan without the use of lotions. In tanning beds it takes your body 5-6 minutes to begin absorbing UV lights. Therefore in a 10 minute bed you are wasting more than half of your session. Tanning lotions provide moisturization (which is KEY) and help to accelerate, maximize and intensify your tan. However, if you are completely opposed to using a tanning lotion, use a moisturizer before you get into the beds. The moisturizer with plump and hydrate your pores making them more apt to quickly begin absorbing UV lights. I would reccomend Total Immersion by California Tan.
What is the difference between bronzer accelerator and amplifier tanning lotion?
Accelerators, maximizers, and intensifiers are all sort of "generic" terms for tanning lotion.
These lotions generally have no bronzers. Accelerator is a term most used to describe a "beginner" tanning lotion, something to help start your tan. Do not be afraid of these words, it doesn't mean you will burn. They will help you tan. You should never tan without an indoor tanning lotion.
Maximizers and intersifiers are generally the "second step" tanning lotion for a more experienced tanner - HOWEVER - it DOES NOT mean you can't start out with these lotions.
The maximizer lotions have extras for the more experienced tanner such as Theraplexin, which increases the body's rate of DNA repair by up to 400% and produces a deeper darker tan for an extended period of time. This does not necessarily mean that a beginner can't use this lotion, but it does mean the lotion costs more.
Bronzer lotions enhance your tan with "extra color". Sometimes bronzers are just cosmetic color, the kind that will just wash off. Some bronzers are a derivitave of DHA which is a type of self-tanner. Some bronzers today have dual, triple and even quadruple bronzers. Designer
Skin makes awesome "low maintenance" bronzers that will not streak or stain or turn a funky color.

What are white spots on your chest after sunbathing?
If someone is during the whole year in office and home, full of artificial light, or spending all days in the front of computer, and then takes vacation and tries get suntanned in 10 or 14 days, it cannot be healthy because it burns the skin. Skin has to get prepared on sunlight during the whole year. On that way skin GETS USED TO producing right quantity of melanin (pigmentation) and there is no problem with sun. Otherwise, we confuse our body, and force it to produce in big quantity something what is unusual for it. Confused body survives stress under unusual circumstances and reacts on strange ways, f.E, by producing white blotches/discoloration spots.
I've got them, too. So, I looked it up, and this showed up! !
Can you put baby oil on to tan on sunbed?

How much do you tip at a tanning salon?
Not unless a service has actually been performed like a Spray Tan because otherwise it would just be like going to a fast food restaurant, pay for the tan at the counter and proceed to the tanning booths.
How do the machines in tanning salons work?
For a long time, the only way you could tan at a tanning studio was in a tanning bed, which is primarily UVA light. Research has shown tanning bed exposure to be linked to cancer.
You can also get a spray tan at some tanning studios now. A spray tan is a good alternative for two reasons: less link to cancer and shorter time spent in achieving a tan.
While tanning at a tanning studio is not terribly expensive, one can also save money by skipping the tanning studio altogether and purchasing over the counter tanning lotions. But beware - if applied improperly you may end up looking a bit too much like George Harrison.
How can you remove fake tan from sheets?

Do tanning beds age your skin?
Excessive use of tanning booths as well as prolonged exposure to the sun has been shown to induce premature ageing in peoples skin.
LOL, no, not unless you are shaving the skin clean off your face along with the whiskers. You should probably stop before you get that deep! Phil
Is it safe to tan after having a baby 2 weeks ago?
Purposely tanning is never a good idea--it increases the risk of skin cancer, prematurely ages skin, and can cause painful burns. Sunblock should be worn whenever your skin is exposed to the sun for long periods of time.
If you insist on tanning, it's probably better to wait until 6 weeks, when your hormone levels have all returned to normal. This decreases the risk of melasma, dark patchy staining of the face
Is there iodine in spray tanning liquids?
Yes, iodine, which is known to be used in spray on tanning (as well as home spray and creams).
It has been found that iodine used for certain hospital xrays is causing kidney failure.
I have been using Mystic Tan for the past 2 1/2 years and have developed severe kidney failure. BEWARE!
Tanning Pills normally contain an ingredient call L-Tyrosine. This ingredient helps increase melanin production. The more melanin that is created...the more it will rise to the surface of your skin. In basic terms...UV Light will cause the melanin to react, darken & spread out on the skin. Thus a tan is created.
The body naturally produces melanin...but kick starting the production using a tanning pill will work. Note: This same ingredient is also in almost all indoor tanning accelerators that are available for purchase when visiting a tanning salon. Whether applied topically or ingested, it basically works the same.
