Things to Keep in Mind Before Your Tanning Session

 Whether you’re a first time tanner or a regular tanning enthusiast, here are a list of tips to keep in mind based on our clients inquires and experiences.

 -      Ask the questions

This is the first step before you head out to tanning session

Ask around about everything that comes to mind.

Read about the different types of tanning machines and which suites your skin.

Understand what your skin type is and what your needs are. Understand the risks of solarium tanning, and you can be sure you’re using them in the safest way possible.

-      Prep your skin

 It’s best to shower, shave and exfoliate a day or two before your tanning session. Exfoliating helps prepare your skin before you tan, using a loofah, or brush during shower time works just fine.

Remember to only exfoliate before the first session.

-      Hydrate

Apply a non-oil-based light moisturizer before you head out to your tanning session; make sure you void fragrances and oil-based products.

You should also hydrate your skin constantly after your sessions. 

-      Safety  

Make sure tanning is safe for your health situation.

If you are taking any medication, make sure you clear out any contraindications.

-         Eye wear

. Wear FDA approved eyewear to protect your eyes. UV rays from the tanning booth may cause harm to your eyes after prolonged exposure. Your eyelids are too thin to protect your eyes from UV rays. Wearing FDA approved goggles will prevent any injuries to the eyes during the tanning session.

Contact lenses should also be removed during the sessions.

-         Keep Your Glow Longer

Maintain your perfect shade by tanning regularly and using a tan extender.
