Australian Gold Dark Tanning Accelerator Lotion, 8.5 Fluid Ounce

Worth the price. Works better than the expensive stuff. Will buy again.

My absolute favorite tanning lotion! Definitely going to be getting more of it! It smells so good as well!

Perfect and exactly what you can buy at a tanning salon for less.

I am the palest of the pale....actually really I am translucent!!! Needless to say, it takes me forever just to get some kind of color without using "tan in a can". I have used this a few times and am actually getting color (beit very light cream color but color nun the less!). I would recommend the Austrailian Gold Dark Tanning Accelerator lotion for anyone looking to get some sunkissed color or for those of you like me, a little coffee with a lot of cream color. Enjoy!

Love the smell of this!! This product has been my go to for over 10 years! I live in New England, so getting a dark tan is iffy, unless your skin pigmentation is naturally dark. I love that this works with your pigmentation to give you the best start to your tan! It’s great to use whenever you’re out in the sun. YOU MUST REAPPLY FREQUENTLY DUE TO NO SUNSCREEN! I would not recommend to people who easily burn, but if reapply this frequently your tan will look beautiful, natural, and smell incredible!

I have been a suntanning "addict", "pro" or "goer" for over 40 years.....from a home tanning bulb that looked like the old bulbs that kept french fries warm at fast food places to, when you went in a booth that was covered with metallic material and FOUR bulbs...then came the tanning beds that did not have a canopy but only the bed where you had to flip over to tan both sides....Yes, younger folks we had these contraptions 40+ plus years ago. Not to mention outdoor tanning where you would lie on a metallic "blanket" called Even Up to tan your sides and have a metallic item held under your chin to tan your neck....So as you can deduce, I have done it all. George Hamilton does not have as much UV as I. The Accelerators came in the very early 1980s and were full of Tyrosine (amino acid, look it up). Honestly, I feel the accelerators are nice moisturizers and typically smell nice, but as far as forcing the skin to tan only one containing a "psoralen" (look this up as well, can be dangerous) would create a situation where the melanocytes are stimulated to tan the skin. All of this about " medium lever beds" and " super beds"....it is really about he amount of UVA and UVB that is concentrated. You need a small amount of UVB to stimulate the tanning process and the UVA typically "bronzes" this stimulated melanin. This lotion I have used for a while, even when they offered an outdoor spray that was a very similar aroma and had a small amount of sun filter (sunscreen). It does a nice job of moisturizing. I am not sure it accelerates the process. Ashy skin is much like a glass (or glass soft drink bottle) that has become hazed...if you add oil to that surface the haze tends to go away. So if your skin is dry and you add moisture, you will look more suntanned. Believe me, I have done it all, tried everything imaginable...if you want more info reach me at [email protected] PS, "tingle lotions" do nothing but make you irritated and red. The do NOT do anything more...I promise you on this.

First off, I am a naturally pale person. I went in a lower-level bed at the tanning salon for 8 minutes the first session using this lotion. That time, I got hives. My skin is very sensitive and the light reacted with the lotion in a bad way. I wasn't discouraged because this has happened to me with other lotions. When I went home, I remembered what I used to do when I tanned a long time ago... I used to apply lotion at home and then drive to the tanning salon and tan. That way, it gave my skin time to absorb the lotion and get used to it I guess.Second session: I applied the lotion AT HOME, drove ten minutes to the salon, and tanned. Success! No hives at all. I was in the bed for 8 minutes again.So far, I have tan lines where my swimsuit bottom was covering me.For only 2 sessions in a low-level tanning bed, that is amazing progress. I will update after more sessions to tell how things are going.Note: For people with sensitive skin, try that tip I mentioned. It might save you from having to shell out 30+ dollars on hypoallergenic lotions.--------------UPDATE-----------------I've been tanning for 4 weeks so far, about every other day. My skin has gotten used to the lotion, as I can apply it at the salon right before I get in the bed. I don't have to apply it at home anymore.The lotion is producing great results. I love the fact that there isn't any bronzer in this lotion because I KNOW for a fact that my skin is getting tan.For my aftertan lotion, I alternate between Save A Tan Bottle. and Hempz Herbal Moisturizer, 17-Fluid Ounce (500 ml) (Package may vary). The lotion from Key West Aloe works best on accidental burns though, which was happening when I first started tanning (my fault completely!). But it really took care of the burn. I like the Hempz lotion mainly because the smell is so gooood. It's thick, but a bit sticky.
