What are some good lotions to start off with for a base tan?

anitap19 · 05-16-2005, 01:02 PM

I just recently started going back to the tanning bed. I use to have a really good tan and would tan very easily. I haven't been out in the sun or to the tanning beds in a while, and I have gotten very pale. So I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on what kind of lotions to use for a good base tan or just what lotion to start off with. Also any suggestions on what kind of lotions to use after having a good base tan. I really don't like the feeling of lotions with tingle.

Thanks

Designer Skin Rapture is good or Swedish Beauty Hemp Creme are good products to start with.

I like Supre's Hippie Chick, they have one with tingle and one that is just an accelerator. It will give you a good base tan and has a great Plumeria smell.
Once you have a good base you could move up to either a tingle or bronzer. my Favorites are Shift(bronzer), and vibe(Bronzer&Tingle)Both by Supre.

I hate to supprot Supre they sell their product to beauty supply houses!! They should only sell to tanning salons
I truly think they degrade themselves by doing that.

Yes, they sell to beauty supplies. That in turn only sell to liscenced stylist, nail techs etc. whats the problem with that. Also supre is giving a great per bottle rebate on all there lotions I have been earning $3 per bottle on alll my lotions.

That still takes away from the saloan owner they will never buy any lotion from you when the can get it at coast.

Lots of lotion companys sell to beauty supplies, Fiji, Designer Skin, Hempz, Swedish Beauty. Sometimes I have a client who wants one bottle of lotion in a brand I dont carry, I can run to this beauty supply and grab tje lotion for my client and not take the chance of her going somewhere else to buy it, or pay shipping on one bottle of lotion.

I can tell you must not be in the cosmetology industry. Most beauty supplies othr than sallys only sell to liscenced people. Actually I am more worried about tanning companys who take orders on the phone and over the internet. I have placed several lotion orders where the company did not verify a tax Id number, or a salon liscence number to verify I was actually a true salon owner. Our consumers are so smart with computers now days they could manage to buy there lotion wholesale if these companys dont start being more carefull. Most beauty supplies have to have a copy of your licsence on hand before they will sell anything. Thats how companys, like matrix and so on stay exclusive to salons.
