Tips and Tricks for First-Time Tanners

Prepare Your Skin:

Before your tanning session, exfoliate and moisturize your skin to ensure a smooth base and even tan.

Start Slow:

Begin with shorter tanning sessions, gradually increasing the time to avoid overexposure and achieve a natural-looking tan.

Stay Hydrated:

Drink plenty of water before and after your session to keep your skin hydrated and prolong your tan

Protect Your Eyes:

Wear protective eyewear to shield your eyes from UV rays during your tanning session.

Session Duration and Equipment Rental

At Radiance Personified, our tanning sessions typically range from 5 to 20 minutes, depending on your skin type and desired results.

We offer state-of-the-art tanning beds equipped with advanced technology to ensure a safe and effective tanning experience. Our friendly staff will be happy to assist you in selecting the right equipment for your needs and provide thorough instructions on usage.

Achieving an Even Tan

To achieve an even tan, apply a high-quality tanning lotion evenly to your skin before your session. During your session, rotate your body periodically to ensure all areas receive equal exposure. After your session, moisturise your skin to lock in moisture and prolong your tan.

Following these steps will help you achieve a flawless, natural-looking tan that lasts.

Stand-Up vs Lay-Down Tanning Beds

Stand-up tanning beds offer a spacious and open environment, allowing for greater movement and airflow. They are ideal for individuals who prefer a quick and convenient tanning experience.

On the other hand, lay-down tanning beds provide a more relaxed and comfortable experience, allowing you to lay back and relax while achieving your desired tan.

Consider your preferences and comfort level when choosing between stand-up and lay-down tanning beds.
