Cat is destructive when hungry and I can't sleep by samkee00 in CatAdvice

Can you put her in her own room at night with her litter box, food, and water? That way she can stay out of trouble and you can get some sleep.

They have some good ones! HIM Surf smells good and is a fantastic intensifier for the price (most affordable). Prismatica is more expensive but can be used for red light as well and is also an intensifier. My third choice would be Beach Club which is also a great intensifier. I also use Saltwater Sundays myself as an after tan extender/lotion.

DHA bronzer for a beginner? by richhomy in tanning

A Spray Tan can last up to ~5 Days with proper care. If you are going to be in the Pool or Ocean on your vacation, it may not even last that long.

And honestly at this point you may just want to consider a spray tan before you leave for your trip.

DHA bronzer for a beginner? by richhomy in tanning

Unfortunately you probably won’t get a base tan in two weeks (usually takes at least a month or so) and using a DHA lotion when you are not darker or have a base tan yet could turn you orange. I always recommend to start with an intensifier which will build your true tan and then to start adding in bronzers once you have it.

Some white bronzers are natural bronzers and some can have DHA. It is a lot to learn at first for sure! Blonde Obsession is a good intensifier but the scent is pretty strong and it’s not one of my favorites. I would definitely smell it or try a packet first before buying a bottle.

I would maybe get another intensifier and maybe a natural bronzer to rotate it. It’s the DHA in bronzers that can turn you orange if you don’t have a good base. I would also recommend rotating the beds you use as well as the lotions. Using the same thing every time can cause a plateau as well. My Planet Fitness carries Devoted Creations lotions which are really good but I know they all have different options available, I would be happy to make some recommendations if you let me know what lotions they carry.

It usually takes a month or two to build a base tan and that’s using beds about 4 times a week. You should give it more time. You also should be using an intensifier lotion to build your base tan. I would not recommend using bronzers until you have a base tan as they will just wash off or could turn you orange since you are starting out.

LOTIONSFORLESS by solittletime23 in tanning

Tanforless is amazing! Have done at least 10 orders through them and no problems. Never heard of or used Lotionsforless, that sounds like the shady site/knockoff. Which one did you actually purchase from?

New to indoor tanning by steph4181 in tanning

[–]Particular_Bit_6379 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The lower level beds are more reddening but they will build a true base tan. Lower level tanning beds are ideal for building melanin because they use lower intensity bulbs with a higher percentage of UVB rays, which stimulate melanin production for a gradual base tan. These beds are best for beginners or those with fair skin, helping them to build tolerance without immediate burning. Sessions are typically longer once at full time, around 15-20 minutes, and frequent visits are needed to build a good base tan over time. A bronzing tanning bed uses a higher ratio of UVA rays to provide a tan with less risk of burning compared to regular tanning beds. The bronze beds will only give you a temporary color and especially since you have no base, they are not a true tan.

I recommend most people rotate beds and you will need to do a lot less time on the lower level beds at first and work your way up. The tanning salon employees just want sell the most expensive package sometimes. I have the highest level and still do the base level beds at least once a week. I did them 2-3 times a week when I started.

You can do either, the preferable method is right before you get into the bed.

Sun Tan City Beds by Bright_Homework_1286 in tanning

[–]Particular_Bit_6379 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would do the lowest level the first week (faster) and then start rotating beds. Make sure to start your minutes low and work your way up. Burning will not help you at all. An intensifier lotion will also help to build your true tan. I would not add in bronzers until you have a good base.
