Tan accelerator

Options
Just wondering if any one used a tan accelerator such as Gatineau melatone tan accelerator to have a deeper tan and make it last longer for a holiday in the sun? :confused:
If winter comes, can spring be far behind?
Spring begins on 21st March.

    Have you tried a tantaliser?

    My lass used to use a basic tanning lotion and she looked great after a 2 week course 3 times per week. 6 mins each time.

    Its very good as long as you start using it about 2 weeks before you go to let the product start working. I used to just go red but it gave me a lovely tan. Continue to use it while on holiday and when you come back to prolong the tan. I like the Gatineau one the best.

    This one BOGOF

    Remember it is not a substitute for suncream. You must use this as well.
  • I used the Elemis tan accelerator before my wedding a couple of years ago, and I did go a lovely even colour. I haven't tried the Gatineau one though!

    I used the Elemis one last year and have just bought some to use again for my holiday in March - I went a lovely golden brown really quickly - my other half couldn't work out how I'd got a better tan than him for the first time in years..he says I cheated, have bought him some this time!

    Just a health note though - get informed - do your research and make sure you know what these products do and what effect they could have on your future skin health!
