FAQS About Tingle Tanning Lotions

When you want to change up your same-old tanning routine, the perfect place to start is adding or upgrading tanning products. From moisturizers and lotions, to bronzers, tinglers, and more, the options are endless. But before you dive into a decision on a new tanning product, be sure to do your research and determine which is best for your skin type and overall complexion goals. One of the most misunderstood and misused tanning products are tingle tanning lotions. These lotions are meant for advanced or experienced tanners, and not recommended for those with sensitive skin or preexisting skin conditions.

If you have heard of these products before, and interested in learning more about them, continue below for a list of the most frequently asked questions and answers about tingle tanning lotions.

What are Tingle Tanning Lotions?

Tingle tanning lotions are called many names, both on the market and among social groups. You may hear them be called “tinglers” or “tingle lotions”, as well as, “hot action” or even “microcirculation” lotions. They are popular because they render a streak-free, natural sun-kissed look, and in a shorter amount of time. Basically, tinglers are the most intense and reactive tanning products you can buy on the market. They are designed to promote faster tanning action, while producing a natural, streak-free sun-tanned complexion.

How Do Tingle Tanning Lotions Work?

Tingle tanning lotions increase the circulation of blood and oxygen to the upper layer of skin (known as the epidermis), which promotes melanin production (a process called melanogenesis). See our blog, “How Does Our Skin Tan?” to learn all about melanocytes and melanogenesis. Melanin is what gives skin color, and producing more of it makes skin darker. In a tanning bed, the production of melanin is boosted further by UV light exposure, thus rendering a deeper tan. Tingle lotions also produce stimulus in the skin, or tingling sensation, hence their name.

What are the Ingredients in Tingle Tanning Lotions?

The most common ingredients in tingle lotions are methyl nicotinate, benzyl nicotinate, and a variety of moisturizing ingredients. Methyl nicotinate and benzyl nicotinate increase micro-circulation to the skin, while moisturizers, such as black currant, white tea extract, and essential oils, help keep your tan longer. See our article, “What’s Inside Your Tingle Tanning Lotion?” to learn more details about their common ingredients.

Are Tingle Tanning Lotions Safe?

Tingle tanning lotions are entirely safe when used according to manufacturer instructions. They are also approved by the FDA. However, some people have described the tingling sensation as painful or highly uncomfortable. For this reason, tingle tanning lotions are not recommended for those with sensitive skin or skin conditions. They are recommended for advanced tanners with experience using tanning products.
