Surely these are okay issues to have....after all it is Jergens...a name we recognize and trust? NOT!

Re: Jergens Anti-Tanning Website

CRAZY!!!

I would love to ask a Jergens rep about this...

ask him if doctors use Propane or any other item when treating...

Jaundice, Eczema, Psoriasis, Osteoporosis, Acne.....

or if any ingredient in that stuff converts to Vitamin D..

THEY ARE SO F-UHN irresponsible for telling people to avoid UV at all cost...

Our industry promotes "safe and controlled" UV exposure..

It is insane that we are held to a higher standard....

Apparently propane is used as a propellant is aeroseol cans. It replaces hydrocarbons of the past that damaged the environment. I guess propane in your face is ok tho... what a crock....

Re: Jergens Anti-Tanning Website

The reason why they get away with it. They are a mutli billion dollar company that most likely makes more money per year than the entire tanning industry does as a whole.
They other reason why they get away with it is you salon owners have been left to fight the skin cancer battle on your own you have to educate people one by one and never get a chance to educate the people they have scared off on a national level and will never come into a tanning salon again. And since the indoor tanning industry does no national advertising to get the word out about the positives of tanning people never hear about it.

Yes there are some great trade magazines and web sites available like this one, but they are for salon professionals. I have always said that if this industry is going to survive and prosper it is going to take a combined group effort on a national scale to get the message across. There comes a time when competitors have to work together for the good of the group as a whole to ensure their long term survival of a industry. You guys are competing against companies that have multi billion dollar advertising budgets and they get their message across to millions in one publication or commercial. And you have to do it one by one
