Elemis Tan Accelerator

...my secret holiday essential – Elemis Tan Accelerator. I first discovered Tan Accelerator’s a few years ago when watching QVC. I had never heard of them before but soon found out that these lotions/creams help increase the melanin underneath the skin and encourage it to rise to the surface. This then means that you do not need to sunbathe for as long to get a tan because they prepare your skin before you go away. I was intrigued so I purchased the ...
...afterwards. Elemis are a company launched in 1989, they make a large variety of skincare and toiletry items which combine natural active ingredients with cutting edge technology and are a favourite among beauty therapists, Spas and health clubs. Their products are designed to use the most natural products available whilst still providing fantastic benefits to the skin.

Review of Elemis Tan Accelerator

A tan accelerator is a pre-sun/sun related product that you start to apply a couple weeks before you go on holiday and you would use it until you return instead of your body lotion. The tan accelerator helps increase the production of of the proteins which produce melanine,(the brown stuff produced making you tan). This means that by the time you go on holiday, your skin is more prepared and will tan a lot sooner (ie the 1st day instead of the 3rd)than ...
...you are very fair and burn or don't usually tan this is a product for you. It can be used with ordinary sun creams as well but the fantastic extra I noticed whilst on holiday in Greece is that it totally cuts down the peeling effect caused by dry skin and the tan fading. I must say that this is one of the best sunning products I have used. Great for blacks skins also as it has an SPF 4 and black skins also need some protection. You will use it ...

Review of Elemis Tan Accelerator

I first used this tan accelerator after years of using different types. I have found this to be the best one available. I used it everyday of my two week holiday and got a beautiful tan without having to sit out in the sun to much and therefore reduced my risk of causing skin problems as i was only in the sun when I had no choice. You start to use it a couple of days before your holiday and continue through the holiday and you can continue with it ...
...I have always found that my skin becomes very dry after 2 weeks in the sun but after using this product I found that my skin stayed a beautfiul colour and with no dry patches. When using the product I found that it had a brown colour which I thought would act as a fake tan but it didn`t . I did however find that the colour came off when you washed your self with a cloth or sponge in the shower. This was annoying and you had to ensure you had a thorough ...

Review of Elemis Tan Accelerator

...now, but the one by Elemis is perhaps the origial and still one of the best. You apply it for about 5/6 days before you're going to be in the sun and then keep using it for the first few days. You can use it all over the face/body. Still sceptical? So was I until I tried it. I'm not a big sun worshipper but I have very pale skin that burns easily, even with a high SPF. Using this means that, for the first time in my life I have a bit of a tan, I ...
