Rep Power: 22 | You also could be using a lotion after you shower that has a sunscreen in it...usually legs and arms are where people put "regular lotion".That may be why you are not tanning in those areas. Check the ingredients of your after shower care products to see if they contain any SPF. Also could be the salon you are tanning at isn't changing their bulbs like they should be... |

Rep Power: 0 | I agree with Zabazu.....first see how old the bulbs in your salon are. If they are new, then you have to look at what you are using. After you shower, either dont put on lotion until you get to the salon or use your tanning lotion. Try working out a little before tanning. Worship is a bronzer, you'll see color with it. Try Believe like SweetPea suggests, you can also try Rapture. Don't shower right away after tanning, wait as long as you can, this will help your tan develop. An HP bed will help you bronze out your color, see if that makes a difference and maybe try it once a month after your tan starts to develop. Don't use a sugar scrub in the shower unless you are burnt and peeling. If you do get burned, back off of your tanning time/session, burning is just ruining what you worked to get. My friend is extremely white and has never been tan, she used Rapture and is now up to tanning 20minutes with a nice bronze color. After you get some color, try a MILD tingle to help accelerate it. GOOD LUCK. |
