Tanning Lotions
Why tanning lotion matters
Using a professional indoor tanning lotion is one of the best ways to improve your tanning results and keep your skin looking healthy.
Browse lotions-
Hydrated Skin Tans Better
Moisturized skin absorbs UV light more evenly for a deeper, more even tan with less patchiness.
-
Helps Your Tan Last Longer
Dry skin sheds faster and causes your tan to fade. Lotions help lock in moisture to keep color vibrant.
-
More Even Results
Indoor tanning lotions help promote a smooth, streak-free, even-looking tan from head to toe.
-
Nourishes Your Skin
Ingredients like aloe vera, shea butter, coconut oil, vitamins & antioxidants leave skin soft and conditioned.
-
Protects Your Investment
Get the most out of each session by optimizing your skin’s condition for tanning.
-
Avoid Outdoor Sunscreens
Indoor lotions are made for tanning equipment. Sunscreen blocks UV rays and regular lotions may damage beds.

Tips for the best tanning results
-
Tip 01 Exfoliate Before Your First Session
Gently exfoliate 24 hours before tanning to remove dead skin cells for a smoother, more even tan.
-
Tip 02 Moisturize Every Day
Hydrated skin holds color longer. Moisturize daily, even on days you don’t tan.
-
Tip 03 Use Indoor Tanning Lotion Every Session
Apply lotion evenly before each tanning session for the best possible results.
-
Tip 04 Remove Makeup & Perfume
Clean skin helps promote a more even tan and keeps tanning beds clean.
-
Tip 05 Follow Your Recommended Schedule
Building a tan gradually produces longer-lasting, more natural-looking results than tanning too frequently.
-
Tip 06 Rotate Your Position
Move your arms and legs occasionally during your session to help reduce pressure points and achieve a more even tan.
-
Tip 07 Wear Protective Eyewear
Protecting your eyes during every session is essential.
-
Tip 08 Wait Before Showering
If your tanning lotion contains cosmetic bronzers, wait 2 to 4 hours (or follow the lotion’s directions) before showering.
-
Tip 09 Moisturize After Every Shower
Keeping your skin hydrated helps your tan fade evenly and last longer.
