Simply put, no! Everyone has a different preference of both make of bed and lying down or standing. The only way to know what works for you is to try them for yourself!

When using Tan Junkie creams, it's essential to follow the instructions for use and to use only a moderate amount of cream or lotion to prevent damage to the sunbed's acrylic surface and, if possible, to wipe any residual from the sunbed after use. For someone with a moderate tan, it is advised that as a maximum, you could use a sunbed 2-3 times per week. The European Standards recommend that you do not exceed using a sunbed more than 60 times per annum else you could be subject to overexposure. You should also leave at least 24 hours between each tanning session to allow your skin to regenerate. Follow the salon's guidelines. Every salon is different, so make sure you understand and follow their rules and regulations.We recommend our tropical pineapple advance peptide sunbed cream for a laydown as this product will soak into the skin more efficiently than our rapid tanning intensifying gels.

This is dependent on the medicine that you have been prescribed. If a medicine is photosensitive, then it is strongly advised not to use a sunbed as these medicines will increase the skin’s sensitivity to UV light. Some medicines include antibiotics, tranquilisers, anti-diabetics, antidepressants, diuretics and sulphonamides however this list is not exhaustive. In the same way that you are able to burn in natural sunlight, this is a possibility. However if you adhere to the recommended time of sessions depending on your skin type and to the salon's suggestions of how often you should use sunbeds, this will minimise your risk of skin damage whilst building a golden glow. Keeping skin moisturised between tanning sessions will also protect from this. A tanning lotion will also protect skin due to the top quality skincare ingredients that keep skin rejuvenated, therefore this will also minimise this risk. To prevent this, it's essential to follow the manufacturer's instructions and use only a moderate amount of cream or lotion. Additionally, salon owners should ensure that their customers are aware of the proper use of tanning creams and take steps to keep the sunbeds clean and well-maintained.Tan Junkie creams and gels are specifically designed for use on sunbeds and are suitable for both laydown and standing sunbeds.

Look out for ColorGuard™ Plus Tattoo Technology in our lotions It is strongly advised to not sunbathe before OR after using a sunbed as this is likely to cause your skin to burn. It will mean that your UV exposure is uncontrolled and lead to skin damage. The point of using a sunbed is to expose yourself to UV for a controlled amount of time, sunbathing immediately after this would mean you will become overexposed and at more risk of skin damage. Outdoor tanning products can also damage tanning equipment, especially acrylic surfaces, which can be expensive for your salon to replace. Instead, it’s recommended that a professional tanning lotion is applied. This can be used before and after tanning. These lotions are crammed full of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and natural oils to maximise tanning results and keep skin nourished and healthy. For best results, apply within 10 minutes of your tanning session, and moisturise daily for the best skin condition. The newest member of our Hemp Nation Collection!
