For a beautiful all-over tan, turn your body slightly during the session so that the sides of your body are better exposed to the tanning light. If your skin feels slightly taut after tanning, you can apply a moisturising cream. Do not take more than one tanning session a day, over a period of 5 to 10 days. Take a break of at least 48 hours between the first and the second session. After this 5 to 10-day course, we advise you to stop tanning for a while. Approximately one month after a course, your skin will have lost much of its tan. If you want to keep your tan, do not stop tanning after the course, but continue with one or two tanning sessions a week. Whether you choose to stop tanning for a while or whether you continue tanning on a lower frequency, always keep in mind that you must not exceed the maximum number of tanning hours. Example Suppose you take a 10-day tanning course, with a 7-minute session on the first day and a 20-minute session on each of the following nine days. The entire course then lasts (1 x 7 minutes) + (9 x 20 minutes) = 187 minutes.
