#1: Build your base tan gradually 

The key to naturally glowing skin is starting slow – when beginning your tanning journey, start with short sessions and gradually build the duration over time. This approach helps to avoid overexposure and will help you achieve an even, longer-lasting, deep glow.

We also recommend giving yourself plenty of time to build your tan, this will give your skin time to adjust and develop a base tan ready for summer.

#2 Skincare + Tanning = The perfect combo

For the ultimate summer glow, it is essential to look after your skin. Good skincare = glowing skin. A consistent skincare routine will help prepare your skin for tanning, making sure you achieve an all-over, even tan.

Did you know that incorporating Red Light Therapy into your skincare routine can be a game-changer? Red Light can help to rejuvenate your skin by stimulating collagen production and improving the overall health and elasticity of your skin.

 #3: Mix between stand-up and lay-down sunbeds

Variety is essential for achieving the perfect glow. Alternating between stand-up and lay-down sunbeds ensures your tan develops evenly across all areas of your body. Stand-up beds provide full-body exposure to UV rays, while lay-down beds can sometimes leave pressure marks on certain spots. By incorporating both into your tanning routine, you’ll achieve a smooth, even tan from head to toe.

#4: Hydration is key

Achieving a glowing complexion isn’t just about what you put on your skin—it’s also about what you put in your body! Staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day helps restore moisture to your skin. Hydrated skin not only tans more effectively but also looks radiant and healthy. Keeping hydrated from the inside out supports your skin’s elasticity, keeping it soft and supple as you build your base tan.

With these simple yet effective tips, you’ll be on your way to radiant, glowing skin ready for summer 2025. At The Tanning Shop, we are dedicated to making you look and feel your best responsibly!
