  Indoor tanning lotions are designed to heighten the effects of ultraviolet rays by increasing the amount of melanin brought to the outer layers of the skin. There are many different brands of tanning bed lotions on the market, and which to use is really a matter of personal preference; some lotions include a bronzer, others have a tingle effect which accelerate the tanning process, and some just smell delicious. Because all indoor tanning lotions are created differently, you should choose a product that works best with your skin.
