Why are accelerators / lotions necessary?
Tanning with an accelerator helps moisturize you skin allowing your body to absorb the UV light, dry skin actually reflects the UV light. Accelerators increase the production of melanin so your skin tans up to 40% faster. The tanning accelerators/lotions we carry are designed to help you maximize your tanning time. They also feed and nourish your skin at the same time with vitamins, minerals and other natural ingredients. NOTE: outdoor tanning lotions can create a film on the tanning bed acrylics and actually inhibit your body from tanning by blocking the beds UV rays.
