Due to our wide range of products, some tanning salon users may find it difficult to choose the right tanning lotion . That's why we've decided to make it easier for you.

The easiest way is to use our "Customize Balm" tab. There, you can see products tailored to your specific client type based on your skill level and skin tone.

If you want to take a more complex approach, you should first determine your skin phototype. Don't worry, we'll try to help you with that too.

Skin phototype is probably still a somewhat mysterious and unfamiliar term for many of you. However, it's worth familiarizing yourself with this concept, as it can help us determine our skin's ability to tan, as well as its potential reaction to ultraviolet rays. A given phototype is determined by the amount of melanin present in the skin, the pigment responsible for tanning. Melanin is also present in the hair and irises of the eyes, so your skin type itself can indicate your skin phototype. Knowledge of skin phototypes is also useful for determining the length and frequency of tanning sessions in a tanning bed. To correctly determine your phototype, you must consider your hair and eye color, and above all, your skin type, its tendency to burn, and its natural protection from radiation.

A skin phototype is a numerical classification scheme for human skin color. According to the classification proposed in 1975 by American dermatologist Thomas B. Fitzpatrick, humans can be divided into six skin types (so-called phototypes), depending on their skin's response to ultraviolet radiation.

We often wonder how to get a tan quickly. Everyone tans to achieve a beautiful, even, and dark tan. What can you do to achieve it? We're here to answer!

First and foremost, follow all the rules for healthy and prudent tanning, which we describe HERE . Following all these rules will definitely help you achieve your goal of a beautiful tan.

Next, we must remember that not everyone experiences both indoor tanning and sunbathing the same way. One person may emerge from the booth after 5 minutes and be much more tanned than another who used the same product and spent the same amount of time there. Not everyone experiences the same tanning process (we write about skin types and their susceptibility to tanning HERE ). Achieving a dark tan is virtually impossible for those with the fairest complexion, but you can, of course, use tanning products that will achieve a sun-kissed effect. With 1-2 sessions a week, your tan will definitely remain golden, and you'll be able to enjoy beautiful skin for longer. An alternative for these individuals is spray tanning, as this treatment allows you to achieve a dark tan without exposing your body to sunlight or UV rays.

But how can you tan with darker skin? Things are a bit easier here. For years, we've been searching for increasingly advanced solutions that help achieve a dark, natural, and even tan while simultaneously caring for your skin. Our proven method for achieving a tan includes indoor tanning products that contain ingredients that accelerate tanning and deepen the effect.

How does it work? Tanning accelerators stimulate the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for darkening skin. In other words, the tanning rate is faster and the effects are noticeable in a shorter time.

The second type of tan enhancer is bronzers. These ingredients react with amino acids in the epidermis, creating what we might call a second layer of tan on the skin's surface, as the "standard" tanning process is simultaneously occurring in the deeper layers of the skin. Previously, only a few substances were known to intensify the tan while using a tanning bed. Today, we use more than a dozen activators and complexes that make tanning even more effective; we've described some of them HERE, and you'll also find information about special-purpose ingredients in each of our tanning lotion descriptions.
