Tanning Bed Lotion

The protective shields of all tanning beds contain 100% acrylic. This component is suitable because its cost is reasonable, it is easy to mold, and it allows UV to completely pass through. Common ingredients such as mineral oil [also known as baby oil] ruin the surface of the acrylics; such are the ingredients found in outdoor tanning lotion which is why while using a tanning bed, people should not wear this. Instead specific Tanning Bed Lotions should be used because they contain ingredients that will neither build up on the acrylic surfaces nor damage them.

As with most things, both indoor and outdoor tanning has its side effects - it dries out the skin. To compensate for this, Tanning Bed Lotions are used because they are specifically designed to moisturize the skin and give it an even, healthy-looking glow. Tanning Bed Lotions and regular hand lotions share the same main moisturizing components; among other things, they differ in their alcohol content, Tanning Bed Lotions have way less.

Ironically, the feature that has the least effect on the actual results of a tan is the feature that carries the most weight in influencing a user’s decision on which brand to choose. The fact that Tanning Bed Lotions are used in an enclosed area where the appeal to the sense of smell is much more pronounced may be a major reason for this. Aromatherapy benefits will be the mark of the right Tanning Bed Lotion for many users.

Larger salons that engage in wholesale use bottles of Tanning Bed Lotion that are 16.9 oz (500ml) or larger but the most common sizes are the 8 to 9 oz bottles. If a product user generously applies Tanning Bed Lotion to all the areas on the body that are exposed, then they would typically consume 0.5 to 1.0 oz of product per tanning session.

Hempseed oil is the moisturizing ingredient most commonly used in Tanning Bed Lotions. Its high fatty acid content enables it to maintain the effects from tanning longer and seal moisture in. It has no drug reactions and contains no THC, making it legal in the USA.

Most manufacturers recommend against using Tanning Bed Lotions outdoors because they offer no protection from the sun. This causes an increased risk of overexposure, since being outdoors is a far cry from the carefully controlled setting of a tanning bed. Each individual user, however, decides whether or not to take the risk.
