Your first session length will depend upon your skin tone and type, and your tanning professional will ask you to fill out a skin analysis to help determine your skin type. Also taken into consideration is how long it has been since you last tanned. The most common skin type is Type 3, who typically tan for 10-12 minutes the first time in a machine that has a 20 minute maximum. Back to Top

This depends on your Individual and Unique Skin Type. You will complete a skin type analysis with a Sun Kiss consultant to determine your individual skin type, from level one to six. Based on your skin type, our consultant will recommend and regulate the tanning time that is best for your skin. Your tanning time also depends on the units that best fit your tanning needs.

It depends on where you live. Typically the tanning equipment will ship the day after the order is received. Your tanning bed should arrive within 7 to 10 business days.

It is difficult to make a simple comparison between the sun and modern indoor tanning equipment. Just as various kinds of indoor tanning lamps and equipment differ in spectral output and energy emitted, the sun's strength is dependent on several factors as well, such as the time of day or year, the latitude, cloud cover, pollution and reflection. Consequently, there is no formula for relating indoor tanning exposure times to outdoor exposure times.

Once the user has towel dried there is little chance of the bronzer or DHA getting on their clothes. If they pursue any strenuous physical activity after the MagicTan session, perspiration may cause some of the bronzer to transfer to their clothing. Since the bronzer is completely water-soluble it will wash out.

It takes about 20 to 25 minutes for the whole process to be complete. The first 10 minutes is having the DHA solution applied to your body. Then it takes about 10 to 15 minutes for it to dry. It is important that the solution dry on the skin prior to putting your clothes back on to avoid smearing or removing solution from the skin.

Probably not. Some skin types tan quickly and easily while others just don't have the pigmentation necessary to develop much of a tan. If you have "type 1" skin It's recommended that you not tan at all. Type 1 skin is skin that always burns easily and severely, tans little and peels. This condition is most common with people that have fair skin, blue eyes and freckles. Approximately 5% of the population is unable to tan. We would recommend you try one of our UV free tanning options.

The Original and Clear NicoDerm CQ patches can be worn while in the sun or tanning bed. However, the patches have not been demonstrated to be effective protection against sun exposure. Use of sunscreens with the patch is not recommended because it may affect the adhesion. Therefore, if you are planning on using the patch while tanning, you may want to place it in area that will not be exposed.

NO, just as the word indicates outdoor products should ONLY be used outdoors, as they can cause a film on the acrylic. This actually inhibits the tanning process, rather than acting as an amplifying agent. There are many excellent indoor tanning products for that purpose. Ask our tanning professional for recommendations.

Yes. If you plan to tan in a UV bed and the Sunless Express Spray Spa on the same day, we recommend you tan in the UV bed first. Tanning in the UV bed after the Sunless Express Spray Spa may alter your results due to the heat and perspiration.

Usually, you will tan about as well indoors as you do outdoors. If you have never been able to produce a tan outdoors, you will not be able to produce a tan indoors either. Some who do not tan well outdoors are able to tan indoors in a controlled environment with the right amount of exposure in carefully controlled intervals.

We recommend that you wait a minimum of 4 hours after tanning to give the DHA enough time to fully set. If you shower earlier, you may diminish the intensity of the tan. When you do shower the initial tan created by the water-soluble bronzer will wash off, but the DHA will remain and create your long term tan.

The tanning process actually continues for a period of time after a tanning session. Taking a shower will remove the mantel acid from your skin and slow down or stop this continued tanning process. It is recommended you not shower for 2 hours after your tanning session or 1 hour before.
