When you own a tanning bed, there is a list of ongoing supplies that you’ll constantly need to have on hand to make your tanning experience most pleasurable. Below, you’ll find a list of the 3 most common tanning supplies that you’ll need to have readily available.

First, you’ll need some sort of protective eyewear, either disposable or reusable. You should always wear your goggles/protective eyewear as overexposure to UVA and UVB Rays can severely damage your cornea. When your eyes are exposed to UV rays (just like staring at the sun).

Next is tanning lotions. Tanning lotions are classified into two categories ‘tanning accelerators’ and moisturizers. These creams can be applied before your tanning session so your skin becomes ‘prepared’ for the UV rays. Your body will also tan faster if it is moist and even after you’re done tanning you can apply the lotion again after so that you continue to tan when you are no longer under the lamps.

Last, but certainly not least we have tanning bulbs. It’s always a good idea to have a couple of these on hand, especially if you run a business. Customers who want their tan to be done immediately will go to whatever salon is operating.
