hey tanners -

I've been tanning pretty much every day over the last month and was wondering what I can do to prevent my face from wrinkling and whatnot and also if there are any non-comedogenic accelerators out there. I generally use DML moisturizer, but it doesn't have any retinol or vit c or any other anti-aging stuff in it. are there any 'specialty products' i should be using? i dont want my skin to get all leathery like some of the regulars at the salon!

Thanks!
Lisa

PS - nobody has bothered to tell me what a tingle is...little help ?

I'm trying to find the same exact product you are so I can't help you there. As for tingles, they are lotions get the blood circulating and bring it closer to the surface with helps with the oxygen aspect of tanning and increases the color you get. Tingles are generally used to break a tanning plateau. There are hot tingles, cool tingles, and tingles of all strengths. I hope that helps, and if I'm wrong, someone please correct me.

you can STOP TANNING EVERY DAY. that is the fastest way to age your skin. every other day is more than enough when you're trying to build a base tan... and then you should only require 2 sessions a week to maintain. tanning every day will not get you darker but it will dry out and age your skin.

as far as facial products go... I use Saving Face by Designer Skin as my accelerator and moisturizer. It contains CoQ10 which is a great free radical fighter. I also use some of the Line Eraser products by L'Oreal.
