Indoor tanning is a quick way to acquire a bronzed look regardless of the season. In recent years, it has become a hot business for a good reason. Commercial tanning beds found in indoor tanning salons make a person look tanned without having to spend hours in the sun. To make your tanning experience a pleasant one, here are some things to remember.

Use the right tanning lotions. The creams and lotions sold in tanning salons have chemicals that speed up the tanning process. The correct products make your money go farther because they shorten the time it takes for your skin to tan.

Designer indoor tanning lotions may be more appealing but generally cost more. These range from $35 to $60. Of course, you can probably get a better deal with special offers but to save money get them outside. You can purchase them at almost 50 percent less. Select a seller with good feedback that is connected to the tanning industry.

Clean your body before getting a tan. It should be free of dead skin. Use a mild soap or body wash and a good exfoliant if necessary. Scrub the skin on the arms, legs and the rest of the body in circular motions. This will help remove dead skin and increases the effectiveness of tanning.

Use a light, unscented moisturizer after showering to maintain the moisture level of the skin. This also keeps skin pores clear. Perfumes and cosmetics are a no-no in a tanning bed. These make the skin more sensitive to light and can lead to uneven tanning or rashes.
