Swedish Hemp Creme

[njchica]

This is a wonderful browning lotion... it gives excellent color, has a clean scent, and contains yogurt extract to moisturize and condition the skin. I always get amazing color from this lotion... and one of the best parts is the price! It retails for $26 which is waaaaaaaaay cheap for the performance of this product. One of my favorite browning lotions ever...

[KIMMYB]

I love this lotion too. Some people don't like the smell but personally I loooove it.

[Anya1976]

i havent tried this one yet... maybe i will get a packette or two from my salon this week

[colorgod]

It has a very clean smell, I don't see how anyone could not like it.

I get great results from it. I like to mix it with X-Power sometimes. Great combo!

[njchica]

Anya, you'll love it. It's an excellent lotion....

[colorgod]

Anya, yes you'll love it, and the cost makes it all the better.

[MoraBella30]

Ive sampled it and i do like this lotion , makes my skin very soft

[Anya1976]

well i have so many things i want to use this week lol but i will definitely try this ya'll talked me into it

[colorgod]

how about the scent Samsara26? Did you like/not like it?

[MoraBella30]

I think the scent reminded me of the SB moisturizer w/ hemp, its a light fresh scent, I liked it yes

[KIMMYB]

I don't know if the guys would like this lotion or not. It smells kinda feminine to me.

I know a lot of SB products have a perfumey fragrance, but this is a very neutral, clean scent.

[njchica]

I don't think it's feminine... it just smells very clean. In fact, I think it's a great scent for guys because it doesn't have a fruity or perfumey smell.

[colorgod]

That's one of the reasons I like it sooooo much. However, I think would still use it if it did have a girly scent. It's a great lotion.

[LavenderFleur]

I just sampled this today. Wowza! You would think I used a bronzer!! I got WONDEFUL color!! I tried the Frosted Hemp a while back and got great results with it too. Definitely going to have to get myself some of this!! I love it! And on top of the great results, it smells good (a little strong going on, but barely noticeable after tan) and is soooo moisturizing! I NEED this! hehe

[njchica]

yay Crystal likes it!

[colorgod]

I think everyone will like this one. On top of being a great lotion, it isn't very expensive either.

[sunbunny]

I finally tried mine today. I loved it. I like the scent. And it's something we can both use. I'll be buying more of this.

[njchica]

this is a phenomenal lotion...

[Laurel]

My salon doesn't carry it I just checked the other day since I heard such rave reviews on it and I live in a small town with only 1 other tanning salon and it is at a haircutting chain.

[Laurel]

oops, I hit submit twice so please excuse this post.[ This Message was edited by: Laurel on 2003-05-28 17:46 ]

[njchica]

maybe they'll order it? it is really great and very affordable as well...

[Cathy]

Laurel ask your salon if they can order it from. I bought mine frm a different salon (Because I wanted it now LOL) but I am sure my salon would have order it for me. Njchica was right this lotion is great and the price was too

I was using worship before but I got better color from the Swedish hemp creme.

and the funny thing is that Worship contains a bronzer and Swedish Hemp Creme does not!!!

[kammy92]

I just bought a bottle of this today and I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was on sale for $18.00 and I heard good things about it so I bought it!!!!!!!!! I used it in a reg 20 min bed and the color was excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can imagine what it would be like if I used the 10 min super bed!!!!!!!!!!!! And the scent is not overwhelming like some of SB's other lotions!!!!!!!!!!! Nice clean scent!!!!! Glad I bought this...........I needed a break from the tingles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dksxytan]

kammy- I used in in our 10 minute PRYZMA, and omg talk about freakin dark... it was unbelieveable!!! It's even better in hp beds.

Im trying to cut back on the super bed use cuz my color is not changing so Im going back to using the reg beds and Ill upgrade a couple times a week maybe............Ill definately try this the next time in the super bed!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dksxytan]

Yeah it's not a great idea to use the hp beds all the time, theyre more damaging to your skin and are more likely to cause wrinkling.. bummer

[LucaBella]

OH now I HAVE to try this lotions too! LOL, soo many!! But it sounds great and all I have really been usuing is Tingles so it migt be nice to have a change. Do you all like this better than Frosted Hemp?? Which gives the best color?

[ladyboss]

Oh, now I'm mad! - when I went tanning this morning they had just gotten in samples of the swedish hemp creme and I had picked it up and put it down, decided I wanted to use a tingle today ! I'll have to go back tomorrow and check it out - it sounds great

[Tpsyduck]

Okay, I got this lotion this weekend, after all the recommendations, so I can't wait to try it next week I'm sure I'll love it

[Blondie41280]

Ok my tanning place doesnt carry this lotion of course and I called around to any tanning places in my area (which are few) today and none carry it either. After reading all the positive messages on this lotion I wanna give it a try. Does anyone know a good place online or where ever I can find and purchase this lotion???

[TanSugar64]

Okay, now I REALLY want to try this lotion, but can't find it in any of the salons in my area. And what are those drops you put in to add a tingle called? I do want to get more into the tingles to break my plateau, so do any of you recommend this? Thanks...

[Blondie41280]

Ok I have ordered this lotion and very anxiously awaiting it to come in the mail since everyone seems to rave about how good it works. Keep the info coming on good lotions to buy people I appreciate it.

[crazy44]

I really like the swedish hemp creme, It smells good and the results are wonderful.

[Sc0tt]

^^^I love this lotion and got a great price on it, only 21$ or something, retail is 26$ thanx to my wonderful salon owner above ...
I use it outside a lot also, and I can see spots where i miss, and it does seem lke im using a bronzer. this is a great lotion! My question is, how does it work? I just can't seem to understand....lol

[njchica]

this is a truly awesome lotion.

[JMe]

Another one added to the list of wants lol hehehe

[njchica]

you'll love it. It is soooo affordable ($26) and gives AMAZING results.

[dksxytan]

I like the fact that it isnt soo thick that it is greasy, but just right so it is moisturizing, and my skin feels great after, with AMAZING color.

[DeReKzTaNBaBiE]

Maybe I should have gotten that one! I just got Frosted hemp instead...and chocolate silk

[TanSugar64]

I'm hearing so many good things about this one, that I'm going to buy a bottle instead of trying a sample first!

[LavaGoddess]

I can get this lotion for $14.50 if anyone is interested

[Tpsyduck]

I don't think we're supposed to list lotion prices up here Lava But, that is a good price

[ladyboss]

I did sample it the other day and its Excellent!!!! The list just keeps on growing

[Blondie41280]

Ohhhh I cant wait for mine to come in the mail. It should be here today or tomorrow. This weekend going on a hunt for salons that sell samples and lotions. Im getting annoyed ordering things online they take forever to send em.

[SexyKitty]

I want to order this but tan for less doesnt have it on thier site I dont think. Someone pm me a site that sells it. I could probably find a salon in my town who sells it but Id rather order online.

[SexyKitty]

dksxytan - i know you said you love this lotion and get great color from it but do you like it better then dark sexy tan or do you like both the same? i know DST has a bronzer but this doesnt. what gave you better color? your lucky, you work at a tanning salon. you get discounts on the lotions and get to try all the lotions.

[dksxytan]

hey there sexy, well I am really partial to my DST, but this one runs a really close second. I would definately reccomend trying it, especially on your face. And I know blondie41280 really likes it to so maybe she can give you some imput also. Good luck sexy:) It's a great lotion!

[SexyKitty]

thnx dksxytan. i will for sure try it out. and if it works on your face also then even better!

[Blondie41280]

Yessss Swedish Hemp Creme is the best lotion I have used for on my face. I have tried so many lotions on it I was ready to give up. I dont use it on my body though since I like to use something with DHA on it so the color lasts longer. But it still does get your body really nice and brown if your looking for a real quick color boost. Next up for me to try is Chocolate Silk by SB.

[boobrandt]

Okay, I'm going to have to try this one. Darn it.

[njchica]

I just used Swedish Hemp Creme again today for the first time tanning in a looooong time. again, I was amazed at how good I smelled after my session in an upgrade bed. I love this stuff.

[Tpsyduck]

Well, I've got a bottle of this just looking at me, so I think I'll have to use it soon, to see what all the fuss is about! It smells awesome, so I'm sure I'll like it

[dksxytan]

It works awesome tpsy, especially for giving your face nice and even color!

[njchica]

bump

[Sc0tt]

This lotion has dropped down on my favorites list. I still like it, but I just get bored with plain ol' accelerators. I love bronzers. I use it to moisturize, though.

[Blondie41280]

I will agree I love bronzers so they have def kicked SHC off my top 5 favs. I get nice color from it but I just love the color I get from some good bronzers like Black Tea or Cafe Bronzer.

[crazy44]

4ever, why did this drop down on your favorite list? Not seeing enought results?

[Sc0tt]

Crazy - Well, I haven't tanned in about a month. But, I loved it at first because it was perfect for my stage. Now, I'm more into bronzers and tingles, or bronzer tingle combos. I still love it a lot and moisturize w/ it, thouhg. I will probably use it outdoors this summer

[crazy44]

You like that tingle feel? I still haven't tried one. I did get some samples in, so next time your in remind me to give you a tingle one.

[Sc0tt]

I LOOOVEE tingles! Gimmie the hottest one ya got! I don't know when I'll be in next, but I'll let ya know. I will be more then happy to pay!
What samples (brand wise) did you get?

[crazy44]

I told you I'd let you have it as long as you tell me what ya think for real. It's a new one from DS.

[Sc0tt]

Oh I want to try some of their lotions. Are you sure? I'll pay something!
BTW, hows Shape'N up going ?

[crazy44]

Shape'N Up is going good thanks, the sample is yours. Just let me know when you'll be in.

[Anya1976]

i really hate the smell of this lotion. it stinks. ick.

no you stink.

[tiger tan]

I just put some on my hands, I looove the smell, the feel is very soft and the color I get is out of this world!!!! Swedish Hemp Cream ROCKS!!!

[kgushanas]

Other than the scent, I really like it! Smells too strong for me.

[boobrandt]

I might have to pull this one out again. I really dislike the scent, but I haven't used it in a while...Guess I need to use it up before it goes bad as I've had it for a while. Will post my results, of course!

[SUNDOWN]

would adding power shots to Frosted Hemp somehow change the normal results/ like if you used it as is? or would it darken better just how it is?

[boobrandt]

I think Power Shots would be good with this one. It should crank up the color. Let us know your results.

[SUNDOWN]

how exactely do you mix the shots with the lotion? Do you put enough lotion in a container for 1 session then add a couple drops of shots to it or... ?????
Boo you seem to always be helping me out!!!! Thanx

[boobrandt]

You need a mixing cup. I put enough lotion for one session and pour the power shots in. They come out pretty quickly, so be careful! (I have no idea why they don't come with a dropper). Oh, and by the way, don't mix them until you're ready to tan because they will eat through the cup in a pretty short period of time.

[SUNDOWN]

thanx Boo... the first bottle of power shots I bought I wasn't sure so I put the whole bottle in 3/4 bottle of my Smoke Black.... OMG it stunk soooooo bad but I got the darkest I ever have from it. Just couldn't conquer the streaks. Maybe my base tan just isn't dark enough.
