Most indoor tanning lotions are unisex, and the ingredients that matter (tyrosine, hydration, bronzer) do not care who is using them. What men tend to want is different: lighter textures, less fragrance, fast absorption and, often, darker results with less fuss.
This page pulls together the products MEGATAN's catalog marks as aimed at men, then points to the gel and unscented ranges that suit the same brief.

What to look for
Gel accelerators are the usual pick: they absorb in seconds and leave no residue on body hair. For color, a hybrid bronzer gives a dark, even result without the streak risk of a heavy DHA lotion. Fragrance-free or lightly scented formulas avoid the sweet fragrances common in the category. Tingles are popular with experienced male tanners but carry the same warnings as for anyone else.
