Choosing The Best Indoor Tanning Accelerator Lotion

By Haywood Hunter


An indoor tanning accelerator lotion is used to help maximize and enhance a base tan. These lotions are packed with moisturizers and nutrients. This is because a skin which is moisturized and nourished tans better and holds a tan longer. Unlike sunless tanning lotions, these products are designed for use with an ultra violet light source like a tanning bed. Their use accelerates the whole process and better results are obtained in less time.

The way these products work is to increase the production of melanin in the body. Melanin is found naturally in the cells of the skin and it determines skin color. People with lighter skin have less melanin. Amino acids found in accelerators, such as Tyrosine and Psoralen, go to work within the cells to increase the production of melanin. This means that when exposure to UV rays occurs, maximum absorption can take place.

Rushing into buying such a product is not advisable. There are so many of these products on the market and it is important to select one which is suitable for your particular skin type. It is better to research different makes and prices as well as read reviews before making a choice. For those with lighter skins or with no tan, lower intensity solutions are advised. Choosing a darker accelerator may result in an unnatural effect.

The ingredients in these products vary. There are many different kinds of moisturizers included such as avocado, aloe vera and hemp seed oil. This is important as subjecting skin to UV rays without moisturizing can quickly dry it out, resulting in aging and damage. A dry skin tends to reflect ultra violet rays instead of absorbing them.

Nutrients are included in these lotions as well to nourish and hydrate skin. Proper skincare is absolutely essential as the basis for a healthy even tan. In your search for the best product for you, it is probably best to select one with vitamins and minerals you recognize such as B12 and vitamin E which has a remarkable ability to help prevent wrinkles. Some of these products have too many mystery ingredients which may push up their price and are not really necessary.

There are lotions which contain many special ingredients that cause bronzing, tingling and cooling. These ingredients have an immediate effect before the skin has had time to darken naturally from exposure to the ultra violet light. Accelerators do not usually contain these ingredients and focus instead on developing a natural tan.

When you use accelerators correctly, you can gain more control over your tan. You can make it more even by applying more lotion to areas which are lighter and less to areas which are darker. While applying these lotions, you should be slow and massage them in, making sure that you do not miss spots.

Using an indoor tanning accelerator lotion has many benefits. Skin is not only moisturized and nourished but the time necessary for exposure to ultra violet rays is lessened. This helps to minimize aging and damage. You save money at the same time because you do not need to spend so much time at the salon.
