how do you guys handle customers with walmart, kmart, coppertone etc types of "indoor tanning" lotions. i know most have some ingredients that are harmfull to acrylics. does anyone know what those ingredients are? Mineral oil, if so what is the scientific name in the ingredients?

we explain the difference and then let them trade it in for one of our products.if its got mineral oil in it it will say mineral oil right out....not sure of a scientific name but i think there is one.......engfant probally knows pm him

all of those mass market lotions are BAD - not to mention there is nothing in them to help them tan . . . we offer a credit of $10 towards a SALON lotion . . .
if you get your mitts on a bottle of that crap, go through the ingredients - it's scary

I think salon owners need to offer a quality tanning products around $10 a bottle to offer tanners the ability to have a lower priced product at your salon.
