I would like to increase my sales of tanning lotion by putting up a poster of one line statements as to why use a indoor tanning lotion. (Eg. Indoor tanning lotion prevents after-tan odor.) Any ideas? Also I need reasons to sell the different types of lotions out there (bronzer, hot, after-tan,brands, etc.). Any help from you guys would be much appreciated.

Indoor tanning lotions are bio-engineered to enahnce/speed up the tanning process, as well as moisturize the skin and prolong a tan. Many lotions now have anti-aging and skin firming qualities (as found in $$ Olay products) to counteract the "negative" effects of UV exposure!

Some helpful hints from training classes:
Tan Faster
Stay Tan Longer

Using a tanning lotion will help with results seen in less tanning times.
Remoisturization to the skin before and after tanning.
The healthier the skin the longer you have the tan. Dry skin flakes and sheds away taking the tan skin with it.

Dry skin tends to reflect UV light, so until you start to sweat in the tanning bed, you can reflect up to 70% of the UV light that is hitting your body, therefore you waste a lot of time/sessions in the bed. Moisturized skin tends to burn less and less severely than dry skin, and also, lotion tends to reduce the damage being done to your skin while you tan.

Is the Soaking Up the Rays website still available? Probably not. There was some great info there on lotions and lotion sales. I know that I did print it out at one time, and if I have it saved on the old hard-drive, I will pass some info along. Lotion University it was called.

It is still up:
