By always using a tanning accelerator, you're maximising the value of the time you spend in the solarium booth, yet minimising your exposure to UV rays. An accelerator differs from a bronzer in that the accelerator actually interacts with your epidermis to produce a natural tan. A tanning bronzer is a temporary skin colouration that can be removed with washing.
We recommend a visit to the solarium between 2 and 3 times a week to build up a tan. If you want to maintain your tan, a regular routine of one to two visits a week should be enough. You are only allowed to visit no more often than once every 48 hours.
a golden tan for summer
The most effective way to get a golden tan is when you receive the right amount of UV exposure for your skin type. Using the right number of solarium tokens for each session you hire the sunbed or standup cabin, can mean you see a tan developing within 4-6 visits.
As a general rule, the fairer your complexion, and the lower number your skin type, the longer it may take for you to see your tan.
