About this product
Rapid Tan Vanilla Baby Tan Extender Lotion is a luxurious, vanilla-scented moisturizer designed to enhance and prolong your natural tan. This creamy, quick-absorbing formula works to accelerate melanin production when exposed to UV light, helping you achieve a deeper, more radiant bronze.

Perfect for intermediate to advanced tanners, it delivers a smooth, even finish and helps maintain skin health, all without bronzers or SPF.
Best for: Intermediate to Advanced Tanners
Key benefits
- Accelerates melanin production
- Extends tan longevity
- Deeply hydrates skin
- Antioxidant skin protection
- Enhances natural tan
How it works
This lotion works by stimulating the skin's natural melanogenesis process. Key ingredients like Acetyl Tyrosine act as a substrate for the tyrosinase enzyme, which converts tyrosine into melanin, accelerated by UV radiation. Humectants and emollients deeply hydrate the skin, creating a healthy environment for even tan development and prolonged color retention by reducing skin dryness and premature cell turnover.
