I need a HARDCORE cooling lotion!!

[punkeydew]

ok we've got this 10 minute bed that is just sweltering.

even with facials off and air full blash I feel like IM literally baking to death

but dam, I cant afford not to use it anymore, cause that bed gives some AWESOME color!!!

Ive used in there

Denim and Diamonds, couldnt feel it at all
Platinum Zero.... Not strong enough!!

Any reccomendations?!?!?

[potmunkey]

Seriously? Platinum Zero wasn't strong enough?

I've gone the full time in the Matrix L33 with the fans TURNED OFF using Plat Zero and was fine... Was it the non-tingle version of Plat Zero?

[poisonthehat]

Platinum Zero is the strongest one I've ever used, not sure I've even heard of a stronger one.

[punkeydew]

yep thats the one I used.... I mean it... this bed is hot...

The thing is most HP beds have a sort of open air design.

This bed is just a High Performance with HP facials and I even turn the facials off.

Its so hot and its fully enclosed so it really is like an oven. Its a Sunscape SS755.

I could at least feel the cooling in platiunum zero, but it just wasnt cool enough!

I am under the impression that cooling lotions use menthol to give the [i]feeling[i] that you are cooler. I don't think they actually lower your temperature by evaporative cooling or anything. If the bed is that intensely hot, it may not be safe to use.

Iv tried most of the cooling lotions they don't make any stronger than Platinum Zero

I agree..the only one that ever came in a close 2nd imo was CT Ambrosia Dark Frost.

I was thinking about that the other day, I was like, it would be really easy for someone to pass out in here.

They actually dont let alot of people go the full 10 minutes. Even the girls that work there only can stand to go 7 or 8.

I always insist though on going the full 10, because seriously whats the point!

But theyve had the bed for a while im sure and since its still there, im guessing theres been no danger so far.

The stand up at the salon location I go to gets very hot! I never can go the full time, I always think that I am going to pass out or something. None of the employees go the full time either and a few refuse to even go in it at all. So, if you ever find an amazing cooling lotion - please let me know.

This is going to sound a bit silly, but some of the beds at my salon get HOT. They run them all day, because we're in a huge college town, and the number of salons is limited. If I go after noon or 1pm, I bring a spray bottle of cold water (sometimes with ice) and I mist myself. The bed and my lotions give awesome color, they're just sweltering at times.

i really like the SB perfectly dark... i think the cooling in that one is Amazing :)

[punkeydew]

spray bottle is a good idea.. at my old salon they had sprAY bottles for the HP beds.
