How to choose the right tanning lotion for different skin types?

Choosing a tanning lotion should be based on understanding your unique skin type. Here's how to choose a lotion for each type:

  • Type I (very fair skin, always burns, never tans): Use mild accelerators with high SPF to protect skin from burns.
  • Type II (fair skin, burns easily, minimally tans): Bronzers with a moderate SPF are suitable to help achieve a gradual tan.
  • Type III (medium-fair skin, sometimes tans, usually tans): You can choose accelerators or low SPF bronzers to enhance your tan.
  • Type IV (medium skin, rarely tans, always tans): Bronzers with no or low SPF will help enhance your natural tan.
  • Type V (dark skin, burns very rarely, tans very easily): Tanning accelerators without SPF are suitable for enhancing and maintaining a tan.
  • Type VI (very dark skin, never burns, tans intensely): Special moisturizing lotions without SPF will maintain skin health and shine.
Regardless of your skin type, it is important to moisturize and exfoliate your skin before applying lotion for an even, long-lasting tan.
