New Lotions on Order

I have ordered a lot of new lotion lines. After trying a few of the old standbys, I have lost interest. We ordered Snooki, JWOWW, Pauly, Hemptz, and a few manufacturers that are very reasonably priced, which did well here last year. They have added new products for 2012. Remember, I have changed one thing in the salon release form. We promise to have good lamps and reasonably priced lotions, and you promise to support your salon by purchasing lotions from us. We will try to make tanning more affordable this way. Thanks!

From the Past

Wow, I am shocked at how much Designer Skin has changed. I am trying their new lines now, and I feel like I am experiencing a new company. Oh that’s right, shortly after the 2011 line came out, the company was sold.
What’s different? First, the company has not mastered that unique fragrance. The two I tried, I could smell the DHA. What a bummer! I hate feeling like I need to take a shower when I get home from work. How did I smell when I returned to work after lunch? I do not take a lunch, but this is something you might ask. I want to ensure that my lotion works in well; I always try to wait until the next morning to shower. I tried “Black Noir” and “CoCo de ville.” One I could smell the DHA right after I got out from tanning and the other that evening.
Last, my hands are stained? I have never had this happen with Designer Skin. Now, "Black Noir" did not stain my hands, but "CoCo de ville" did. Yes, I know that you should spray your hands with the disinfectant and wipe with a towel, but I have never had to do this with Designer Skin lotions in the past, so I did not think I had to do it. Boy, you should see the palms of my hands today!
Don’t get me wrong I saw longer, lasting results with "CoCo de ville" than "Black Noir", but everyone’s skin is different. So, my pick between these two is "CoCo de ville." I will try both again. It is hard to write any off with only one use.

Black Noir

Of course, Designer Skin, always gets my attention. When the boxes finally came, I was pumped. I had to bump trying Steal the Lime Light to try this one. One of the ingredients is Hydrolyzed citrus aurantium dulcis extract-all this means is orange. It is a skin conditioning agent. Another is hypericum perforatum extract, St. John's Wort. As a topical remedy for wounds, abrasions, burns, and muscle pain, it has positive results. Also, skin irritations were tolerated with this ingredient. Maybe those of you with psoriasis might give me some feedback on this. Anyway, it has been 3 days since I used it, and I still have great color. Isn't that what it is all about with "tanning in moderation." You find a great lotion, so you do not have to tan as much to take care of your skin.

Another new line

I thought I would try a different approach this time when describing Australian Gold products; Place them all out, so I can get money in store, and then write about them on the blog. One afternoon it was finished! I have not got to try all of them because I still have the "Steal the Lime Light," but the one that caught my attention is "Duplicity." It has Dual Use-tanning and sunless bronzer for days you are not tanning. A soft powder fragrance is great to go back to work too. I will let you know!

Swedish Beauty complete

I have finished this line. I will be starting on Australian Gold.

Be Envied

Also from Swedish Beauty, this formula has a tingle factor of T2. Pink Diamond has been discontinued, so I think if you loved Pink Diamond, you will adore this. The new formula will keep your skin remaining calm and non-irritated. I think the fragrance is much better too!

Magical Moment

A fairy tale fragrance smells like what? Picture yourself in an enchanted castle where your prince charming is waiting! The room is filled with the fragrance of “Star Dust Wishes, and the sound of music. As you approach the center of the room where he awaits . . .
Wait a minute we need to be describing the lotion, not the story. “ Enchanted Beauty" by Swedish beauty is touched by fairy dust, Brown Algae from the Baltic Sea. Your skin will “appear younger and vivid” with the magic of Vitamins E, C, and B5.
While you are tanning, let the sweet fragrance allow your dreams to come true.
