What's the difference between indoor tanning lotion and regular lotion?
Posted by Sonni in: indoor tanningMost tanning salon lotions cost between $20-50! What is the main difference between using these brands and just using , let’s say, Lubriderm, before I go tanning? (in a tanning bed). I’d rather use the regular lotion if it will give me the same effect because it’s definitely cheaper.
The only difference is the ones they sell are usually made for those high wattage lamps. They help with long term skin damage. If you pay attention to what you are buying in the store you will be fine with bringing your own.

yes they can be expensive, ive seen bottles for almost 100! most tanning lotions come with special tan "accelerators" or a "tingle factor". apparently these additions in the lotion make you tanner, faster!

My sister got her tanning lotion from Sally Beauty Supply. It’s a knockoff brand of California Tan’s Hot Chocolate (one of our classic favs from way back!) and she swears it works just as well. I think she paid $10 for it.

The tanning beds are probably faster, my hubby went there and for over a year he had these vertical lines on his back. One on each side of his back. it was so strange. My sister in law used tanning lotion from L’Oreal, and it was fantastic! We all thought she was under the sun here in LA from day break til sun down everyday. But it was just the lotion and she barely went out. I didn’t really notice til my mother in law pointed it out.
