Why ours hits different

Fresh tubes matter

Loads of places run tubes way past their best. You end up doing minutes, but not getting results.

We keep it consistent

Retubed well within manufacturer guidance for predictable sessions and better value.

Tanning accelerator

Why people use it

  • Helps skin stay hydrated, which can help your tan look smoother
  • Often looks less patchy compared to tanning on dry skin
  • Cleaner than random oily products people bring in

How to use it

  • Apply a thin, even layer before your session
  • Do not pile it on
  • Wash hands after applying
  • Ask staff if you have sensitive skin and want guidance

Price: £2 per sachet, available at reception in staffed hours.

Minutes guide

Typical beginner start: most people start around 6 to 9 minutes, depending on skin type and how you react. Staff can advise on your first visit.

Build up gradually

  • Start lower on your first session if you do not tan often
  • Increase slowly across sessions, do not jump straight to max
  • Stop if you feel heat discomfort, irritation, or redness

Skin type heads up

  • Very fair skin: go lower, build slower
  • Medium skin: steady build usually works best
  • Darker skin: you may tolerate more minutes, but still build gradually
Important: if you burn, you have overdone it. Do not tan again until fully settled, and speak to staff if unsure.

Rules and safety

  • 18+ only: photo ID required if we have not seen it before
  • Staffed hours only: last session is at staff discretion based on queue and time remaining
  • Eye protection: eye winkies are provided free and must be worn every session
  • Unlimited packages: 1 session per day, within your daily minutes limit
  • Extra minutes: £1.50 per minute if approved by staff
  • No sharing packages and no letting other people use your access
  • We reserve the right to refuse a session where safety or eligibility is in doubt

Please remove makeup and deodorant before your session. Avoid oils or products that can mark equipment.

Do not use a sunbed if you have photosensitive conditions, are taking photosensitising medication, are sunburnt, or have been advised not to by a health professional.
