No idea

I'm sort of new to tanning, I've gone every other day for a week, and I got a little tan but I want new lotion to help. I've been using this really cheap SexyU Hemp lotion I got at a store but I want salon quality lotion to get a better tan.

I don't know anything about lotions though. I was just wondering if someone could educate me a little about them, what different types there are.

Any lotions you would recommend? Or any I shouldn't buy that smell bad or don't work good?

I'd ask the people at the salon but sometimes there are kids working there that don't look like they know anything. I just go to Tantasia.
Thanks

Re: No idea

What is your skin type?
Do you like a bronzer?
Do you like a tingle?
Do you like a cooling lotion?
Do you like a firming lotion?
Or all of the above?

All questions but that's the way to go :-)

I don't know my skin type.. It's fair though, but the last time I went tanning(day before yesterday) I stayed in for 14 mins and had no problem.

I don't really know the difference between all of those lotions, i've never used any lotion before besides this cheap stuff I got that didn't do too much. Said "stimaulates and cools as you tan"

Re: No idea

try a basic lotion first, like australian gold idol, california tan has a lot of basic lotions like x-speed, ct7, ionyx, ask if you can smell them at the salon or try a packet first. once you have a base tan try a tingle lotion to get really dark.

Re: No idea

Here are 2 skin typing tests that will help us help you a little better.

This one is more of a simple skin typing test--- http://desertsuntanning.com/info_display.asp?id=5 ----NVM, this one doesnt work.

And this one is more indepth and is a more accurate test, but it takes a little longer--- http://www.naatso.org/frameset_survey.htm
