How to Apply Suntan Lotion

Video Transcript

"Hello my name is Melissa. I'm here at Maui Tan in Atlanta. We have two locations. This is our Vinings location. Our other location is in Midtown Atlanta. Here we offer UVB free beds, mystic spray tans, all sorts of products and a great knowledge about tanning. Sometimes the rays in a tanning bed or even out in the regular salon can be a little strong. In this case you're going to want to apply an SPF. California Tan makes a great SPF with VitaTan in it allowing you full spectrum coverage while you can get a little bit of color. Here I've chosen an SPF 15. It's just a lighter SPF. You're just going to apply this the same way that you would regular lotion making sure that you rub it in very even. It might be a little bit white at first. Just make sure that you rub this all the way in, concentrating on areas that are more sensitive for you, maybe it's your face or your chest or your shoulders. Those are good areas to watch for. Typically people will forget about their shoulders and that's the spot that the sun hits the most so you really want to make sure and get those more sensitive areas. Using sunscreen can also be a great protection for an tattoos that you might have. The extra moisture with the UV protectant is going to help extend the life of your tattoo, protecting it from any color fading."
