Are there ways to enhance the Mystic Tan™ results?
Yes, applying a water-based moisturizer prior to tanning helps the skin absorb the Mystic Tan™ tanning solution. Using a moisturizer frequently will help the tan last longer. You should not apply any moisturizers or lotions to the skin after tanning until the DHA has had time to set, usually four to six hours. Certain types of moisturizers or lotions applied during this period could cause the streaking of the DHA.

Can I go swimming after tanning in the Mystic Tan™ booth?
You should not swim or shower for a minimum of four hours after tanning in the Mystic Tan™ booth. Swimming in chlorinated water at any time can bleach the Mystic Tan and possibly cause streaking.

How long after a Mystic Tan™ tanning session before I can put my clothes back on?
Once you have towel dried there is little chance of the bronzer or DHA getting on your clothes. If you pursue any strenuous physical activity after your Mystic Tan™ tanning session, perspiration may cause some of the bronzer to transfer to your clothing. Since the bronzer is completely water-soluble it will wash out.

How many times do I need to tan with the Mystic Tan™ tanning process to achieve the color I want?
You will be tan after one session, but it may take an additional session or two to achieve your desired color. Once you reach the color you desire you should be able to maintain it by tanning every six to seven days.

If I tan in the Mystic Tan™ tanning booth, can I also tan in tanning beds and in the sun?
Yes. There is nothing in the Mystic Tan™ tanning solution that would prevent you from tanning in tanning beds or the sun. In fact, a number of customers have found that tanning with UV rays and the Mystic Tan™ tanning solution actually gives them a better overall tan. If you do plan to use a tanning bed and the Mystic Tan™ booth in the same day we recommend that you tan in the tanning bed first. Remember however, that the Mystic Tan™ does not give you any protection from UV rays.

Because of my fair skin and have never been able to tan before. Will the Mystic Tan™ tanning booth give me a tan?
Yes. The Mystic Tan™ tanning booth was designed specifically for individuals who can't or don't want to tan conventionally.

What is in the Mystic Tan™ tanning solution?
The bronzer is a water-soluble dye designed to produce an instant tan. The brown bronzer will wash off in the shower or bath but will not affect your overall tan. We also offer clear solution with no bronzer.  The results are the same but without bronzers, the choice is yours. The DHA produces a long-term tan. When applied to the skin, DHA reacts with proteins in the skins superficial layer to form a golden brown color. It begins to darken two to three hours after application and reaches its peak color within twenty-four hours. The DHA tan will begin to gradually fade through natural exfoliation, just like a tan from the sun. To maintain optimal color, you should tan every four to five days.
The Aloe Vera helps to carry the DHA deeper into the skin and promotes a softer, smoother finish. The Mystic Tan™ tanning solution contains more than 65% stabilized Aloe Vera liquid. Aloe Vera is a natural moisturizer that helps the skin draw moisture to the surface. It softens the skin and helps smooth wrinkles.

Can I use the Mystic Tan™ booth if I am pregnant?
We suggest that you consult your doctor regarding this matter.
