What does Australian Gold’s Dark Tanning Accelerator lotion do?
A tanning accelerator is applied before UV exposure to help you tan faster. Dark Tanning Accelerator lotion goes on before every tanning session on a sunbed. It contains no bronzers: it stimulates the tanning process and cares for your skin so that melanin can develop in the best possible conditions. The result is a natural, gradual tan that deepens session after session.
Dark Tanning Accelerator lotion is designed for sunbeds and can be used outdoors when the sun is at its weakest.

How to use Dark Tanning Accelerator on a sunbed
Before your session, apply an even layer of Dark Tanning Accelerator lotion to clean, dry skin on all exposed areas. Wash your hands after application. Follow the session time recommended by your salon and keep exposure sensible to avoid burning.
250ml bottle or 15ml sachet: which size?
- 250ml bottle: the size for applying Dark Tanning Accelerator at every tanning session.
- 15ml sachet: enough for one session, to try the lotion or take it with you to the salon.
Dark Tanning Accelerator lotion or spray: which one?
Dark Tanning Accelerator lotion contains no bronzers: the colour comes solely from your tan, which the formula speeds up. Dark Tanning Accelerator Spray comes in two versions, with or without bronzers.
Our advice: go bronzer-free for your first sessions and for fair skin; choose a formula with bronzers for olive skin or skin that’s already well tanned. DHA doesn’t create the colour, it transforms it: when your melanin is working hard, your tan can turn dull, and DHA gives it a more coppery tone. The lotion is therefore the right place to start. For olive or already well-tanned skin, move on to the spray with bronzers.
Australian Gold Dark Tanning Accelerator FAQs
Does Dark Tanning Accelerator contain bronzers?
No. Dark Tanning Accelerator lotion contains no DHA and no bronzers: it speeds up your natural tan. For a touch of bronzer, choose the spray with bronzers.
What’s the difference between Dark Tanning Accelerator and Hot!?
They are Australian Gold’s two best-selling bronzer-free accelerators, with the same Cocoa Dreams fragrance. Dark Tanning Accelerator is the brand’s affordable base lotion. Hot! is built around its Active Aloe® formula and a cocktail of vitamins A, C, E and F.
Does Dark Tanning Accelerator protect against the sun?
No. Dark Tanning Accelerator contains no UV filters: it has no SPF and it is not a sun cream. It is designed for sunbeds and can be used outdoors when the sun is at its weakest. In the sun, avoid the hottest hours of the day.
Can I use Dark Tanning Accelerator on a sunbed?
Yes, that’s its main use: Australian Gold Dark Tanning Accelerator carries the brand’s Indoor logo and is designed for sunbeds.
What does Dark Tanning Accelerator smell like?
Cocoa Dreams, Australian Gold’s signature cocoa scent.
