Yes tanning beds, I don't think that there can be a beauty blog without something about tanning! I have just recently become a tanner and I am hooked!. The gym that I attend, Planet Fitness, includes unlimited tanning to black card members. The beds are "Ergoline flair 32/1 super power" Some say they do not find the beds to be very powerful but I don't have that same complaint. I am German and Irish so My skin is naturally VERY fair and I burn very easily. Since using these beds I have yet to burn, I get an all over color and I love that the beds have fans. My real only complaint is that even though there is a button for music, the beds do not play music, So I normally just put my phone on pandora. :)
When I first started out tanning I went to a tanning salon that had stand up beds, I did enjoy those but even after going 3 days in a row I barely had any color...and this is supposed to be one of the more higher end salons..
With all of the safety risks involved in tanning, there are precautions that can be taken, such as;
*Drinking plenty of water.(Keeping the body hydrated is a key thing!)
*Using indoor Tanning Lotion. (also keeping your skin moisturized daily!)
*EYE COVERS!! (The most IMPORTANT of them all!)
I wear pods eye covers, they are very convenient , they come in a "pod" like case that hooks right onto your key chain! I think I paid like $4 or $5 on mine.
