At Tropical Tan, we like to imagine it’s summertime all year long. You don’t have to stop living your beachy lifestyle just because you’re heading back to school. We want to make your transition into the fall season a bit easier with these awesome back to school specials!

As soon as you get your new school schedule, stop by Tropical Tan for 30% off your next tanning package! We’ll also give you 30% off any of our lotions that retail for $40 or more. You can also use your school ID to take advantage of these deals. Teachers get the same discounts too. Just show us your school ID.

We know that brains are just as important as beauty so we’ve launched a school supply donation campaign to help students in need. If you’re not a teacher or a student, you can still shop our back to school sale by donating school supplies. One unopened school supply gets you 10% off our tanning packages and lotions. You can donate two items for 20% off or three items for 30% off, which is the maximum possible discount. All donated items will be given to schools in the area.

We hope that you’ll continue your tanning routine even when it gets cooler outside. We know how stressful school can be, so we’re inviting you to include our therapeutic aqua massages and relaxing tanning beds in your regular pampering regimen. Whenever you feel overwhelmed, just stop on by for your mini tropical vacation!

Have you checked out our new clothing boutique yet? When we came up with the idea, we thought it would just be a fun extension of our efforts to make our clients feel glamorous. We had no idea it would be such a runaway hit! Browse the racks and pick up a few pieces so you can get the school year started on the right foot.

We’re going to have a booth set up at MSSU’s Community Day on August 24, and we hope you’ll take a minute to say hi! We’re excited to connect with local students who are as passionate about beauty and style as we are. God bless and make it a great day!

There is an art to getting the perfect tan. Here at Tropical Tan, we pride ourselves on being Smart Tan certified. This means that every staffer has been trained to program your tanning bed with settings that are calibrated with your current skin tone and desired color in mind. We know that you love coming to us for tanning sessions because of how relaxing and pampering they are. We do all of the hard work for you! However, there are a few things you should keep in mind if you want to really optimize your tanning experience.

It might seem logical to apply a generous amount of your favorite outdoor suntan lotion before coming in for your Tropical Tan session, but this is actually counterproductive. Conventional tanning lotions are formulated to amplify the tanning properties of sunlight. They are not as effective when used in tanning beds. They can even damage tanning beds if you aren’t careful.

Before hopping into your tanning bed, speak with one of our employees about our stock of high-end indoor tanning creams and lotions. Our staff is well-educated when it comes to skincare, and we can recommend the right product for your skin type and tanning goals. We can also suggest products for prolonging your new color and keeping your skin moisturized an conditioned after tanning. When you use the right products in conjunction with a perfectly programmed Smart Tanning bed, you will achieve your desired color more quickly, and your tan will distribute more evenly. Going the extra mile to prep your skin makes a huge difference in the long run. Your skin will resist the aging associated with careless outdoor tanning, and you will achieve the exact level of color that you want. Call or visit us to learn more about these products.

God bless and make it a great day!

Seeing Spots

Few things are more satisfying than seeing your skin gradually take on the natural beachy glow you’ve been waiting for. Uneven patches and white spots put a major damper on this excitement. Often, these spots are not a result of human error, but rather the natural inclinations of your own body. Tropical Tan’s Smart Tan techs can take steps to avoid uneven tanning if you already know that you are predisposed to developing these pale patches.

Tinea Versicolor is an easy problem to solve. It is caused by a fungus that interrupts your skin’s ability to develop a tan. Since the fungus takes hold in the scalp before spreading to the rest of the body, it can be remedied with regular use of a strong dandruff shampoo.

Vitiligo is a condition characterized by the skin’s inability to retain melanin in specific areas. The skin around those patches will tan normally, but the pale patches simply don’t latch onto any color. This cannot be treated with tanning alone; it is a medical problem that requires treatment from a doctor.

Sometimes uneven tanning is caused by your position on the tanning bed. If your weight is supported on isolated pressure points like your shoulder blades, tailbone and the backs of your legs, your blood flow in those areas may be affected. This makes the skin over those points less likely to darken under UV lights. This is fixed by simply working out new ways of positioning your body. We can also program your bed so you are turning over more frequently, keeping the blood moving uniformly in your whole body.

At Tropical Tan, we go the extra mile to give you the ideal tanning experience.

God bless and make it a great day!

The Golden Rule of Tanning

tropicaltanjoplin

With all of the new skincare studies and products in the news these days, it can be hard to figure out which claims you should be taking seriously. One thing is abundantly clear: taking good care of your skin is of the utmost importance. The interesting thing about skincare is that you get to decide which facets of it are the most important to you. Lots of women focus on reducing or preventing visible signs of aging, and others work to pack as much moisture as possible into their skin.

By this same token, it is up to you how you balance tanning with the rest of your skincare routine. When done right, Smart Tanning can be part of a well-rounded plan for making your skin look and feel its very best. You are probably already a bit familiar with the concept of a “base tan.” A base tan is a protective layer of color that shields your skin from potential sunburn.

If you know that your skin tans easily, getting your base tan in a salon like Tropical Tan may reduce your risk of sunburn by up to 81%. Tanning’s benefits for your skin don’t stop with the visible glow it imparts. The process of tanning triggers your skin cells to repair damage; getting a tan is an actively positive thing to do for your skin. We recommend building up your base tan slowly so you can gauge how quickly your skin browns and if you respond well to the settings you choose. The settings on our Smart Tan beds can be fully customized, so there is a lot of wiggle room to figure out the exact personalized tanning program that works for you. We hope to see you soon!

God bless and make it a great day!

Win A Free Spray Tan! – HAPPY HALLOWEEN

tropicaltanjoplin

happy halloween

Halloween is one of Tropical Tan’s favorite holidays. We love being able to express different sides of ourselves. Some of us go glam, and others opt for silly costumes. No matter what costume you wear, you surely want your skin to have that beautiful golden glow. That’s why we’re introducing our new UV FREE Spray Tanning Services just in time for Halloween.

To celebrate Halloween and the fall season, we are offering one Text Club member the UV FREE treatment of her choice. If you aren’t already a Text Club member, simply fill out this form and you’ll automatically be entered into the contest.

Many of our favorite clients choose Halloween costumes that show off their amazing figures. They can attract even more admiration by popping in for a quick UV FREE tanning session. We offer two different types of UV FREE services. Versa Spa tanning is a three-step process. First, the body is treated with a priming mist to make sure that the skin absorbs the tanning solution properly. Next comes the spray tan. After that, a gentle moisturizing spray tones and nourishes the skin. The moisturizing mist has special anti-aging properties. One Versa session costs $32.

Mystic Tanning harnesses the power of heat to guarantee optimal and even absorption of the spray tan solution. The spray nozzle moves back and forth so it doesn’t miss any hard to reach areas. There are four shades of Mystic Tan available, ranging from Glow to Dark. You can even add aroma blends to your tanning spray for an extra luxurious experience. A single Mystic Tanning session costs $25.

October is Brest Cancer Awareness Month

tropicaltanjoplin

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

At Tropical Tan, we believe in giving back. Our services and products are intended to make people look and feel better, but sometimes that isn’t enough. Most of our customers are women, so women’s causes are very close to our collective heart. Breast cancer is an illness that affects so many of us, and in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we have decided to launch a donation campaign. This cause is dear to our hearts since we have experienced it.

Every little bit helps, and we know that many of our customers are students or young adults who do not always have very much money to spare. To show just how far every dollar goes, we are encouraging all of you to donate just $3 to the cause, with a modest goal of getting an average of $5 for every donation. All the proceeds go to Hope 4 You.

If you make this small donation through Tropical Tan, we will give you 25% off any product or service you purchase that day. If you donate $5 or more, we will give you a bracelet to show our thanks and appreciation. We hope that you will be inspired to donate and to feel how rewarding it is to help others.

<!— We are continuing our partnership with Powerhouse Gym. New customers with valid Powerhouse ID cards will receive $130 in free services if they purchase a yearly membership with us. We are very excited to have joined forces with Powerhouse. Tropical Tan is all about health and wellness, and we are glad to give you an incentive to stave off the “freshman 15” and maintain your figure through the holiday season. —!>

Thanks to all of you for inspiring us to make a positive impact in our little community of Joplin. For the whole month of October, the positive effects of our tans and aqua massages are further amplified by how good you’ll feel after contributing toward a great cause.

God bless and make it a great day!

One last thing, through Halloween we are giving $10 off on spray tans. So don’t forget to get that perfect color for all your Halloween parties with a quick UV free spray tan in our Mystic HD or our Versa Spa.
