Prepare your skin before tanning
Peeling and moisturising the skin? Sounds unfamiliar, right? Trust us, women have to do it too! It is best if you exfoliate your entire body the day before your tanning session. That way, the body will be smooth and better prepared to absorb the ingredients contained in tanning cream. This simple step will increase the longevity of your tan.
When it comes to moisturising your skin, you should find a lotion that suits you not only in terms of composition and consistency, but also in terms of fragrance. Once you find something just right, keep on using it daily. As a result, your skin will look much healthier, and the tan will not lose its beautiful, sunny glow for a long time.

Find your favorite tanning salon
Ask your friends, look for information online, check all the reviews and find the perfect tanning salon just for you. The one close to your workplace or home would be the best option - since our lives are very busy, it's convenient to have everything close at hand. Maybe there is a highly recommended tanning salon near the gym? You should check it out!
Once you get there, ask if the beds are disinfected and find out if the ventilation is working. It is worth asking the staff about the estimated wear and tear of the lamps. Lamps that operate for more than 800 hours are more worn out and produce less heat.

Use mens sunbed cream
Should you use men's sunbed tan enhancer? Using specific products designed for tanning is one of the most important things. These are not the same as moisturising lotions, which you should use every day. These are products with specific formulas that accelerate tanning and enhance its effect.
Our offer includes several powerful sunbed creams for men. To begin with, we recommend the HE bronzing sunbed accelerator. Not only will it ensure the perfect color of the tan, but it will also provide proper care for your skin. It is enriched with the Pronalen Sport Re-Energizer complex which balances the level of macroelements in the skin. Its other ingredients, such as silk, sesame oil and pomegranate extract, intensively moisturise your skin providing the optimum level of hydration. It also gives your skin a younger appearance by eliminating the first signs of aging.
For an advanced tanner who started his "man in tanning salon" journey a while back - we recommend the V8 sunbed cream with tingle effect. This mens sunbed cream may cause a tingling and burning effect on your skin, do not be alarmed though - this is an incentive to increase skin cell microcirculation and thus accelerate the tanning process. Aloe Vera extract and Shea Butter ensure the proper level of hydration and regeneration of the epidermis, while vitamin E give you a firming effect.

Wear tanning bed goggles in the tanning salon
Many people do not use goggles when tanning in fear of developing white spots around their eyes. This is a mistake! In fact, the skin around the eyelids is very delicate and you need to be careful not to burn it. Tanning bed goggles are necessary. Remember that you need to pick the right pair and use them in a proper way. An alternative to goggles is the use of special eye covers.

Use the tanning salon regularly, but make the visits brief
How can a man tan without burning? Regular but short tanning salon sessions protect against the risk of burns. The first session should be the shortest (approx. 5 minutes), but subsequent sessions can be gradually lengthened. Remember that you can evaluate the final effect only after approximately 24 hours. You need to give your skin some time to regenerate before your next tanning session.
Summary
If you use the tanning salon wisely, your results will be amazing and fully satisfactory. Remember that keeping your body healthy and attractive is not only about the tan. Exercise regularly, stick to your diet and drink plenty of water - this is the key to your success.
