Bronzers are often added to tanning products to enhance and darken the tan, blend unevenly tanned areas, and enrich to tone (color) of the tan. How bronzers work varies by brand depending on the ingredients used. Generally, they are temporary, but regular use will promote a healthy color with less (or no) exposure. We offer a variety of tanning formulas so you can choose the type that best suits your skin. The more bronzers in the product, the longer your tan will last. We also offer bronzers with self tanners, they are similar to bronzers except they are stronger, and designed to use less frequently. Typically once per week or two. The advantage of a self tanning lotion is that it works very quickly and requires less maintenance.
Accelerators
Accelerators
Accelerators
An intensifier/accelerator lotion has ingredients that will hydrate and tan your skin. There are zero bronzers in this type of lotion. It has ingredients that work with the melanin in your skin. You will only see the color that your melanin produces. The lotion is white so it doesn't have bronzers to darken your tan while your tan develops naturally.

Tingle lotions contains ingredients which cause micro-circulation. Micro-circulation brings blood to the surface of the skin. When the oxygen in your blood rises to the surface of the skin, the UV light can reach it much more easily. This process will deepen your tan to a new level. When using a tingle lotion, you may experience any or all of the following that may last approximately one hour, although these effects may last longer based on your skin type:
- Mild to intense tingling of the skin
- Slight to intense reddening of the skin
- Mild to intense heat on the surface of the skin
You should NEVER use a tingle lotion on your face. The skin is much too thin and this could result in the popping of capillary. If you want to lessen the tingle feeling of the lotion, mix it with an accelerator or bronzer. Make sure you wash your hands after use, it can rub off onto people and pets.
