Accelerator Creams

The secret to tanning faster — without going darker beds

What is an accelerator cream?

Accelerator creams are designed for people who want to build colour quicker, deeper and more evenly while staying within safe tanning exposure times.
They do NOT contain bronzer and do NOT artificially stain the skin.
Instead, they help your skin produce its own natural melanin — the pigment responsible for a real tan.
In simple terms:
Your skin does the tanning. The cream teaches it to do it better.

Perfect if you:

• Tan but struggle to go darker
• Plateau at the same colour every week
• Tan patchy or uneven
• Stay pale after sessions
• Are starting a new tanning course
• Want faster results without longer sessions
• Want a natural golden tan (not fake bronzed colour)

Not ideal if:
You want instant colour today → You’d want a bronzer instead.

The result:
You tan earlier in the session, not later in the course.
So instead of:

8–10 sessions to see colour
You get:

Visible colour in 3–5 sessions
Not stronger UV.
Not longer sessions.
Just more efficient tanning.

Your body tans by producing melanin.

But most skin is slow to react — that’s why people think beds “stop working”.

Inside the cream:

Tyrosine + Melanin stimulators

Hydration complex

Circulation boosters

Hydration Rich Maximizer

Why some people never tan properly

9 out of 10 clients who “don’t tan” are actually:

• Dehydrated skin
• Slow melanin response
• Using no lotion
• Or using the wrong type

Sunbeds don’t create colour alone —
They trigger a process.
Accelerators make that process work.

The Flamingo Bay recommendation

We always recommend starting your course with an accelerator.
It builds a real base tan first.

Then you can introduce bronzers later if you want cosmetic depth.

This gives:
✔ Longer lasting colour
✔ More even tan
✔ Less sessions needed
✔ Better skin condition

Hotter Beds Does NOT Mean Darker

One of the biggest tanning myths is:

“The hotter the bed, the better the tan.”

It’s actually the opposite.
Heat is not what makes you brown.

UVB stimulates melanin. UVA oxidises it.
Temperature has nothing to do with how dark you go.

They don’t.

Your skin just isn’t being stimulated enough.

Accelerators fix that.

Inside the cream:

Tyrosine + Melanin stimulators

These wake up the tanning cells so they start producing pigment sooner.

Hydration complex

Dry skin reflects UV. Hydrated skin absorbs UV.

More absorption = more tan from the same session.

Circulation boosters

Bring oxygen to the skin — oxygen is required to oxidise melanin (the step that turns it brown).
