Accelerator Lotions

Absolutely! Lotions containing Tyrosine enhance melanin production in the skin, leading to a better tan. Using a specialised lotion keeps your skin hydrated, making it easier to tan, while also feeling softer and smelling fresher. Be cautious of lotions that claim to be tan accelerators but are merely moisturisers. Always ask us for recommendations rather than relying on trends from TikTok. We’ve seen clients bring in a range of products, from fake tans to SPFs.

The quality of your tanning experience largely depends on the ingredients in the lotion you use – investing more typically means better tanning and skincare benefits. We offer sachets of various lotions, allowing you to test them during a single session before committing to a full bottle. A bottle typically lasts between 15-20 sessions, costing just an additional £1-2 per session. You can also leave your bottle with us for convenient access each time you visit.

Recently, products from brands such as Fox Tan and 2bTanned have hit the market, often promoted with flashy social media images of deeply tanned individuals. However, these products are largely gimmicks. It is doubtful that these inexpensive, greasy lotions contribute to achieving a darker tan. Reputable tanning salons avoid these products because their low-quality ingredients can damage the acrylic surfaces of our sunbeds.

Please be aware that we purchase our lotions in small quantities from our supplier, ensuring that our stock is always fresh. We offer at least a 10% discount off the recommended retail price (RRP) to pass on our loyalty savings to our clients.

We advise against purchasing from Amazon or eBay, as you are likely to encounter end-of-line lotions and outdated stock. Our supplier prohibits online listings, and violating this policy would result in our account being closed. Therefore, most online products are unlikely to come directly from authorised suppliers.
