A nice tan makes you look and feel healthier, and can even make you appear 10 pounds thinner. And there are benefits you can derive from tanning, contrary to what naysayers are saying.

Lets Begin...

Tanning Bed Video Tip #1:

Tan Moderately. Tanning too often can and will speed up the aging process and potentially cause other skin ailments over a period of time.

Tanning Bed Video Tip #2

Build a base tan. Go 5 days per week for the first 2 weeks. Go for several minutes for lighter skin. More for dark skin. It all depends on skin type...

Tanning Bed Video Tip #3:

Ask a Smart Tan Certified Tanning Consultant how many minutes are right for you.

Tanning Video Tip #4:

Do not burn or get pink. If this occurs you have damaged your skin.

Tanning Video Tip #5:

Slightly increase your minutes on the tanning bed after you get a base tan. Go 2-3 times per week for maintenance once you reach your optimal color. Go even less if you tan in a stronger bed.

Tanning Video Tip #6:

Wear eye goggles at all times. UV rays can severely damage your eyes. Buy your own. Sharing goggles that are not cleaned properly can cause serious skin problems.

Tanning Video Tip #7:

To avoid getting creases or pressure tanning lines, you should move your limbs into different positions during your session. Tanning beds are now designed so you don't have to flip.

Tanning Video Tip #8:

Avoid wearing make-up, deodorant, or other perfumes prior to tanning.

Tanning Video Tip#9:

Use an indoor tanning lotion to get a deeper, darker, long lasting tan. Use a bronzer to get darker faster. Do not use outdoor lotion.

Tanning Video Tip #10:

Exfoliate prior to your tanning sessions. A shower and exfoliant is fine.

Tanning Video Tip #11:

Again...Tan moderately. You do not have to go often, and for long periods of time.

Every person's skin type is different, and every salon has different types of tanning beds with varying intensity levels...

Consult with your local tanning salon for a skin type analysis (from a Smart Tan Certified Tanning Consultant) so you can get a good idea of where to start.
