FAQ
How should I tan
How your skin tans
If you are taking any medications, please let one of our tanning consultants know. Some medications can increase sensitivity to ultraviolet exposure.
Avoid using loofahs or body poufs in the shower or bath. These products increase your natural rate of exfoliation. Remember, tans don't fade. They naturally exfoliate with your skin every 28 days. Lack of moisture and harsh products such as loofahs will increase this cycle
Remove all makeup before tanning. Most makeup products contain SPF's that are not necessary when tanning in a controlled environment. Some cosmetic products may even contain ingredients that will increase your sensitivity to ultraviolet exposure.
If you plan to tan in the nude, cover previously unexposed areas for the majority of your tanning time for the first few visits. Gradually increase exposure to these areas until they catch up to the rest of your body.
Moisturize your skin! The heat and light from tanning sessions can dry your skin. Because moist skin tans best, we recommend using tanning accelerators before each session and moisturizers after and between all visits.
Protect your lips. They do not produce melanin and they will burn easily unless you protect them with lip balms or sunscreens.
Protect your eyes. Simply closing them or wearing outdoor sunglasses is not adequate protection against possible long-term eye injury. That risk can be eliminated by wearing the FDA compliant eye protection provided at The Mirage Tanning Centers.
