which is better for getting a deep dark tan that lasts. I have heard that high pressure beds don't maintain your tan as long as regular beds do. and i have read articles that say the opposite. what is the difference between the results you get???

I love Matahari made by California Tan it is a high power tingle which brings out the melanin in your skin i got very dark from this one a tad pricey but its worth it if you can stand the pins and needles feeling for like the first 30 mins afterwards. Also i just bought this new one from California Tan also called Mayhem it is a Triple Bronzer with tingle, but you have to rub it in really well so their isnt any streaking but i love it very dark and if your not used to the tingle then i would suggest going in for 10 mins. but if not go for the full time unless your going into a turbo bed then until you get to hot. But i would recommend both very dark tanning results but the tingle is something that helps stimulate the melanin and brings out a deeper more natural looking tan instead of the fake n bake look, they also have a plesant smell. I had used Wired by Thunderbolt and it is a powerful caffine stimulated tingle, def. Not for the beginner if you never used a tingle before it will make your stomach crawl. And i also have this stuff called Power Shots by Ultimate its a 5 oz. bottle, you can add a reasonable amount to ANY tanning lotion that you have already and will give you the tingle sensation and you can adjust the level of tingle still. But i hope this was informative and happy tanning.

Dark Tan by: Anonymous
I usually use a tan accelerator most make your skin tingly or feel like you have a sun burn after tanning they seem to work the best for me. Make sure you keep your skin moisturized at all times the more often you put on lotion the better, try to find a lotion that says it will help keep your tan. I would also suggest tanning maybe 3 times a week if you are getting burned reduce the amount you tan to suit your personal needs. Experiment with the length of time you tan if u burn reduce the time if not go for as long as your tanning salon suggests. After you develop the color you want keep it by going tanning about once a week maybe less depending on how fast it fades. Hope this helps!

Rotate the beds and lotions you use and go every other day. Brown envy is a good lotion. You need to moisturize every day and exfoliate once a week

I Like Tan Towels by: Janet
I like to use the tan towel once a week. I use my tanning bed about 3 times a week after getting a base tan. I use the tan towel once a week and it looks like I have been to the beach!
