the lotion u are using is basically a starter lotion. if you have been tanning for a couple of months then u should definitely step it up to a better lotion. as far as your skin type and what bed and what lotions your salon has, i suggest you speak to them for recommendations about what to get. It also sounds like u may not be using enough lotion when you tan. you should use 1/2 to 1 oz before each tanning session. protan is 8.5 oz, i think, so it should have lasted u about 16 visits. easy way to figure is # of oz in bottle x2= the most amount of times the bottle should last u. if u buy a more expensive lotion and then skimp with it because you paid more, you are wasting your money and should stick with the cheap stuff. I am sure you have heard the saying, you get what u pay for!! good luck to you!!
