Hello, gorgeous! Megan here, your go-to gal for tanning tips. With Christmas parties around the corner, it’s time to talk about how to achieve that flawless, envy-worthy winter tan. Whether you’re rocking a little black dress or a shimmering gown, glowing skin is your best accessory. Let’s get into how you can get an even, natural tan just in time for the festive season!
Why a Flawless Tan is the Perfect Christmas Party Look
A healthy tan adds warmth and radiance to your skin, making every outfit pop. Winter might make natural tanning harder, but with the right tricks, you can shine just like it’s summer. And guess what? You don’t need a holiday in the tropics to make it happen.
Pre-Tan Prep: Smooth Skin is Key
1. Exfoliate Regularly
Before tanning, exfoliate to remove dead skin cells and create a smooth surface. Use a gentle scrub or a dry brush, paying extra attention to rough areas like elbows and knees. This prevents patchiness and ensures an even tan.
Tip: Exfoliate 24 hours before applying tanning products or hitting the sunbed.
2. Hydrate Your Skin
Dry skin can cause uneven tanning. Use a hydrating lotion daily to keep your skin soft and supple. Focus on areas prone to dryness, like hands, feet, and ankles.
The Secret Weapon: Sunbed Creams
If you want a natural, even tan quickly, sunbed creams are your must-have. These creams work wonders by enhancing your skin’s ability to tan while keeping it hydrated and protected.
Why Choose Our Sunbed Creams?
Our Melanoplex Range is specially formulated for sunbed and UV tanning. Packed with a powerful blend of Hexapeptide-11 and Octapeptide-5, these creams don’t just tan—they nourish and protect your skin.
The Line-Up for Your Perfect Glow:

Tips for a Flawless Tan
1. Apply Sunbed Cream Generously
Before stepping into the solarium, apply your chosen sunbed cream evenly across your body. This boosts melanin production, helping you tan faster and more evenly.
2. Use the Right Sunbed Settings
Short sessions are best to avoid overexposure. Always follow recommended timings based on your skin type.
3. Moisturise Post-Tan
After tanning, lock in your glow with a nourishing lotion. This helps maintain your tan for longer and keeps your skin looking radiant.
