Most spas encourage their clients to use tanning lotions to improve their color. These creams or oil are very popular and known to help deepen or improve the results of a session in a booth or bed. These products are similar in function but can vary widely in the outcome they provide.
Most tanning lotions are sufficiently safe for all-over application. But, whenever possible it is important to use a blend designed especially for faces. Facial tanning lotions have gentler ingredients, are safe to use around eyes, and may offer added benefits such as ingredients to firm the skin.
Lotions and oils are applied before stepping into a booth or bed. Regardless of brand, these generally contain moisturizers and ingredients that raise the amount of melanin in the top layer of skin. Some work by increasing blood flow to the skin, others increase melanin production itself. Since melanin is the color that creates a tan, this helps a tan set in more quickly and with more even coloring.
Tanning lotions created to be used indoors are always safe to use on plastic or acrylic surfaces. Since customers' skin touches the beds for a prolonged period of time, it's important to have safe ingredients in the lotion they use. Any cosmetics that may corrode the equipment would not be desirable for repeated use.
Oftentimes there are added benefits to applying tanning lotions. Almost all brands contain a high quality moisturizing ingredient. Others may include bronzers which deepen on their own over the following hours. Nearly all have some kind of scent, though it may be natural or perfumes that are added.
It is important not to confuse these tanning lotions with sunblock. Sunblock is intended to counter the harmful effects of sunlight by protecting the skin from UV damage. Tanning lotions or oils do exactly the opposite and increase the effect of lights on the body. In addition, using sunblock while in a bed or booth would counter its effects as well as potentially damage the quality of the machine, due to contact with the wrong kind of chemicals.
Sunshine and ultra violet lights in booths and tan bed are not equals. It is necessary to have appropriate tanning lotions or oils that are reserved for their intended tanning situation. Compounds in a product intended for outdoor use may react differently under concentrated light. Conversely, tanning lotions intended for salon use may not show any helpful effects when used under sunlight.
