Give the Gift of Glow This Christmas
Christmas shopping for someone who loves to tan? Our tanning gifts have something for everyone on your list, from gift cards they can spend however they like and lotion stocking fillers to salon treats like spray tans, sunbed sessions, red light therapy, and indulgent full-body skincare.
Don’t forget to treat yourself too! December fills up fast with parties, nights out, and family get-togethers, so now’s the time to plan a little Christmas tanning before the festive season gets going. Whether you top up your colour on a sunbed or book a spray tan the day before a big night, you’ll be all set for whatever’s in the diary.
Tanning Shop Gift Cards
Not sure what they’d pick? A Tanning Shop gift card lets them choose for themselves. You decide the amount, and they can spend it on whatever they fancy, from sunbeds and spray tans to red light therapy and tanning lotions.
If you’d usually reach for beauty gift vouchers, this works the same way, and they get to spend it at their favourite tanning and wellness salon. Our gift cards can only be purchased and redeemed in-store, so make sure to mention that in their Christmas card.
Wellness Gift Ideas: Red Light Therapy and WellFit
If you’re looking for self-care Christmas gifts that feel a bit more special than another candle or bath set, red light therapy is a lovely option. No UV and no tanning involved, just time to lie back and switch off, which is exactly what most of us need by mid-December. Our red light salons offer single sessions as well as package bundles, so you can treat them to one, ten, or twenty sessions (it depends how nice they’ve been!).
Red light therapy gifts suit anyone aged 16 and over*, so they’re an easy addition to your pamper gift ideas for friends, family, or a colleague in your Secret Santa.
If they’re lucky enough to live near one of our WellFit salons, then there’s another skincare gift to consider. Our full-body WellFit treatment mists skin with nourishing ingredients for the easiest skincare session they’ll ever have; a brilliant pick for the skincare-obsessed.

Spray Tan Gifts for Party Season
Got a Christmas do, a festive wedding, or a New Year’s Eve party coming up? A Christmas spray tan is one of the easiest gifts to get right. Our automated booths give an even, natural-looking colour in minutes, with no UV, so it’s a great pick for anyone who prefers a sunless glow.
The simplest way to give one is with a spray tan gift card that covers a session or two, or you can pre-book for a time you know will work for them. Who doesn’t love a surprise glow? To purchase a gift card simply head in store and top up with the value of your choice.
Tanning Lotions: Stocking Fillers for Sunbed Fans
For the sunbed regular in your life, a new lotion makes a brilliant stocking filler. Our in-salon range includes intensifiers, accelerators, DHA and natural bronzers, plus options for sensitive skin and tattoo protection, so whatever their skin type or go-to shade, we have a lotion to suit.
Unsure which to pick? Our team can point you in the right direction, or you can browse the full range of tanning lotions first. Sunbeds are for over-18s only, so save these sunbed gifts for the grown-ups on your list.
Psst. Keep an eye on our Christmas offers page for festive lotion deals.
Luxury Skincare Gifts
Want to help their Christmas tan go the distance? Hemp Nation Tan Extenders keep skin hydrated after tanning, so their colour stays smooth and glowing right through the holidays. Choose from gorgeous scents including Agave & Lime, Vanilla Bean and Pistachio, and Sunset Bliss, all available in salon.
They pair nicely with a gift card or a UV lotion if you’re putting together a little Christmas bundle.
FAQs
Where can I buy a Tanning Shop Christmas gift card?
You can buy a Tanning Shop gift card from any UK salon, so just pop into your nearest branch and tell the team how much you’d like to put on it. They’re handy for last-minute shopping too, as there’s no waiting around for delivery.
What can a Christmas Tanning Shop gift card be used for?
Our gift cards can be spent on anything in the salon, including UV tanning, spray tans, red light therapy, and tanning lotions. That means the recipient can choose the treatment or product that suits them best. Treatments vary between salons, so it’s worth checking what’s available at their nearest branch.
Are there age limits on tanning and wellness gifts?
Yes. You must be 18 or older to use a sunbed. Red light therapy is available from age 16, except for the K11 Air Select, which is 18 and over. Spray tanning is available from age 14, and anyone under 16 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Is red light therapy a good Christmas gift?
It’s a great choice for someone who’d love a bit of time out over the festive period. A session takes 15 minutes on our Optimal bed or 20 minutes on the K11 Air Select, so it fits easily around Christmas plans. It’s not offered at every salon, so check the salon locator first.
What are good stocking fillers for someone who loves tanning?
UV tanning lotions and tan extenders are both easy wins. A lotion suits sunbed regulars aged 18 and over, while a tan extender helps their colour last a little longer. Our salons stock a huge range of full-sized lotions and try-me sachets, so ask our team to help you build a bundle of our best-sellers.
*Please note that red light therapy treatments on our K11 Select models are available exclusively to customers aged 18 and over. This age restriction applies only to the K11 Select equipment and reflects our commitment to responsible light exposure and customer well-being.
