Posted on July 3rd, 2007 in Tanning Bed Lotion by BionTanning

A good lotion while using tanning beds can greatly help speed up the tanning process. The lotion should be applied several weeks before the tanning session and one hour before and right after every procedure.

The lotions for the tanning beds are specially made to contain the ingredient of tyrosine. Tyrosine is an amino acid that helps in the stimulation of the pigment called melanin. It aids the UVB light or rays in melanin stimulation and production. The UVA light or rays aids in oxidizing the color produced.

Most of the lotions for tanning beds also contain vitamin E. Vitamin E is considered as an anti-oxidant. Tyrosine and Vitamin E work in the same way by preventing fine lines on the skin like wrinkles in one’s face.

Another ingredient common to lotions for tanning beds is copper. This actually works by reducing the appearance of scars and other blemishes that are minor. Actually copper also aids the tyrosine in producing important chemicals for the brain. This partially explains the happiness a tanning enthusiast gets when they are doing the session. There is ongoing research about the anti depressive effect of tanning to people.

Tanning bed lotions also have one important ingredient which is the moisturizer. This is an important element among all the ingredients of tanning lotions. It increases the effects of the tanning bed’s UVA light at the same time counteracts the dryness brought by the UVB light. It also counteracts the peeling process.

All the ingredients mentioned above were not sufficient so many lotions for tanning beds also have aloe vera, hempseed oil and other nutrients that can help protect the skin from the harmful rays and other bad effects of the environment.

There are also several kinds of the lotions for tanning beds. Each one has a different use. There are lotions created to act like tan accelerators. They have ingredients that magnify the tyrosine’s effects. Other lotions are used after the tanning session. They work to bring back the moisture that was lost while in the tanning session.

Make sure to choose the lotion most suitable for one’s skin. When a person has a lighter skin tone or someone who doesn’t have a base tan yet, the type one or type two is advisable for them. The people with mild tan skin tones should choose type two, three or four. Then people with a dark skin tone should choose type four or five.

The lotions for tanning beds have different kinds of scents as well. The scents range from fruity scents to food scents like chocolate, key lime pie and cappuccino. Most tanning salons carry a full range of lotions.
 
So chose the right lotion and enjoy your tan to the full extent that you can.
