I just started tanning at the local salon but there prices for tanning lotion is a little ridiculous. I went to walmart and bought a bottle of INDOOR tanning lotion. it says that its safe to use in the tanning bed but im still a little freaked! Anyone know what I should do?

Yes. i do not see why not. Go for it!
Yeah! it’s totally fine! I do it all the time. At the salon they tell you not to use them for one reason only…so they can make money off their own ridiculously priced tanning lotion. I honestly think the only difference from the lotion at a regular store then from a salon is that the one from a salon works faster to bring your tan out BUT don’t quote me on that because I have never used the lotion from a salon. I refuse to pay that high price! Hope this helps.
Yes, you can use it. Don’t let the salon know though. They will tell you in ruins their beds. It does not however. They just want you to buy their $60 bottle of lotion. They work on commission.
Why use lotion?
The only safe lotion is one that stops tanning, so no need to use tanning salon.
If you insist on damaging your skin by tanning, don’t try to fool yourself into believing any lotion is going to stop damage which increases future skin cancer risk.
yeah, i never buy the ones from the salons. the ones in stores are just as good!!
stop using the tanning bed! so very bad for your skin! go get spray tanned!

This is a great website to order tanning lotion. So far its the cheapest place I have found, and your order comes in really quick. Good Luck!
yeah its fine. i use the ones from walmart too lol.
No. It’s not fine. The regular lotions to not react as well to the UV bulbs. That’s why they manufacture indoor tanning lotions versus outdoor tanning lotions. And the outdoor tanning lotions are bad for the acrylics…it makes them crack and discolors them (the lotion gets into the cracks and it cant get out and the uv light causes discoloration and further cracks the acrylics)).
