Get some light!

Light is essential to all life on earth. There are various physiological and psychological reasons why exposure to light is desirable and necessary. There's a growing body of scientific evidence showing people actually require light exposure to function effectively. Light exposure causes the brain to suppress the release of the hormone melatonin that acts as a depressant in the body and exposure to light produces various health benefits, such as the production of the very necesssary Vitamin D3 in the prevention of bone diseases (such as osteoporosis) and in the improvement of symptoms of psoriasis.

People who are exposed to longer hours of bright light feel happier and are able to enjoy life. Potential health benefits include but are not limited to: production of Vitamin D, decreased risks of breast and colon cancer, and reduced risk of sunburn. The psychological benefits of tanning are also well researched. Sunlight deprivation has been linked to some mental disorders. There are numerous reasons, physical and psychological, why exposure to ultraviolet light is desirable. FDA regulations at the present time prevent the indoor tanning industry from making any medical representations or claims related to indoor tanning exposure. And of course, people know that a great tan looks good, feels good, and can add to personal confidence and attractiveness.

How to Get the Most from Your Mystic Tan

Sure, following Mystic guidelines of when to exfoliate and shower are great ways to maintain that natural looking Mystic Tan and to achieve better results from your session. However Darque Immersion Tanning carries the Mystic Prestige Line, which is an array of products that are designed to help you achieve and maintain that perfect tan at home long before, and after your Mystic session in the salon.
Mystic care starts before you even enter the Mystic booth. With Mystic Prestige Line’s Base products, you are able to prime your skin for the perfect tan; because the perfect tan starts with the perfect base.

This used prior to your Mystic session will provide the darkest and longest lasting results. People who like to double dip with a UV session prior to Mystic use this as their lotion to get maximum results.
“HYDRATOR” is a skin nourishing lotion that is applied immediately before your Mystic session to instantly hydrate your skin. This unique blend of moisturizers continuously balances moisture levels throughout the entire development process. It maximizes absorption for longer lasting results.
