New year, new me! How to start conscious tanning?
Share
The start of a new year is a great time to make a list of New Year's resolutions. Many people decide to make radical changes aimed at improving their quality of life. Among the most common resolutions are regular gym attendance and conscious body care. Speaking of skincare, let's take a look at what we can do to start tanning consciously.
How to sunbathe healthily in a solarium?
When it comes to healthy tanning, the main rule is moderation. More isn't always better. And we're not just talking about tanning in the sun, but also in a tanning bed. A much better approach is to opt for shorter tanning sessions (5 to 8 minutes) every 2-3 days than to expose your skin to radiation once a week for more than 10 or 15 minutes.
Another important aspect is body care, both before and after tanning in a tanning bed . Remember to epilate, remove dead skin cells, and moisturize regularly. Use nourishing lotions daily, such as avocado oil, shea butter, or aloe vera. Deep hydration and soothing irritation are the foundation of skincare, especially for skin that's been severely dried out by excessive sun exposure.
Just before your tanning session, apply lotions specifically designed for tanning beds. We offer accelerators and bronzers for all skin types and complexions.
Which tanning lotion should you choose?
If you're just starting your tanning journey, choose lotions with a white cosmetic mass. We suspect you're not yet experienced in applying this type of product, so white bronzers or accelerators are a great choice. You don't have to worry about spotting or streaking if the product isn't applied properly.
Tanning accelerators stimulate the skin's melanin production, allowing you to tan much faster. Bronzers, on the other hand, contain bronzing ingredients that intensify the intensity of your tan. Depending on your expectations, choose the right cosmetic for you.
You can read more about the difference between accelerators and bronzers HERE .
However, if you're no stranger to tanning salons, we recommend Black Bronzers or tanning tingles . Dark bronzers contain pigments that slightly darken the skin. The effect is visible almost immediately. Tingles, on the other hand, are for advanced tanning salon users. You may feel a slight tingling sensation after using them. Don't worry, though. This is a sign that your blood vessels are dilating, so the tanning process will be faster than usual.

Or perhaps you're interested in tanning at home? If so, we have something just for you. Sunl'essence self-tanning mousses are the recipe for a perfect tan year-round. Our self-tanners are incredibly easy to apply, thanks to their fast-absorbing mousse form.

The mousses are available in three versions: light/medium, medium/dark, and 1-hour. The latter is enriched with an additional bronzing ingredient, thanks to which you'll notice the first results within just 1 hour of application!
The coming year will also be a year of safe facial tanning, so we've launched bronzing drops . Simply add them to your favorite cream and spread evenly. A natural, sun-kissed skin effect is guaranteed!
