The sun. It’s the fundamental ingredient for all life forms. Through its light, warmth and radiant energy, the sun provides the basis for all life on our planet. It stimulates the mind and the soul. It provides a sense of inner peace and well-being that both comforts and energizes. When the sun is shining, spirits are lifted and rejuvenated.
Regular exposure to sunlight can:
- strengthen bones
- regulate blood pressure
- reduce stress and tension
- keep hair, skin and nails strong and healthy
The sun creates UV light, which is responsible for tanning and is divided into 2 categories: UVA or UVB.
UVA’s main role in the tanning process is oxidizing melanin, the browning pigment that tans the skin. UVB triggers melanin production in the skin. Both types of UV rays play a significant role and are needed for a balanced tanning process.
Tan Fact: Our state-of-the-art tanning equipment is designed to replicate the UVA and UVB produced by the sun, while allowing you to control your exposure.

- Choose from an array of tanning skin care
products that are designed to work with any
skin type and tanning level.
- Slow Down
- Never try to hurry a tan and always use common sense.
- Never tan more than once a day
- Retain your desired color by tanning once or 2 to 3 times a week, depending on the level of the bed.
- Try a Cocktail Tan as an alternative to
your weekly regimen.
- Wear Eye Protection
- Always wear protective eye goggles when tanning.
Before and after tanning, applying quality indoor tanning and skincare products will help you build an attractive looking tan. Taning without a lotion will deplete your skin of its much-needed oisture. Indoor tanning lotions can help stimulate the production of malanin, your skin’s natural dark pigment, so that your skin tans more quickly, gets darker and keeps its tan longer. Plus, ourlotions have moisturizers that keep your skin soft and healthy. Premium lotions deliver vitamins, moisturizers, natural oils and other ingredients to reviltalize the skin and encourage malanin production.

Your should always wear goggles over you eyes when tanning in a tanning bed. The Food and Drug Adminisrtation makes wearing eye protection mandatory. In addition, it is required by law in most states because eyelids are not thick enough to protect your eyes from UV damage. At Palm Beach Tan we provide FDA-approved eyewear at no charge in each tanning room.
