Uijeongbu tanning salon: 5-minute brown tan at Beotgo Tan

In summer, I feel like bronzed skin completes the outfit. I came to Beotgo Tan Uijeongbu Branch (벗고탠 의정부점), said to give the prettiest tan in Uijeongbu. For skin care in Uijeongbu, Beotgo Tan Uijeongbu Branch!

You feel a little hot after tanning because of the body heat, but there is a coffee machine and a space where you can sit, have an iced Americano, and rest before heading out.

Tanning cream and luggage storage

I heard tanning cream is really important for tanning. It was nice that there is a vending machine where you can buy tanning cream suited to the machine. There are also plenty of lockers for bags and belongings. I wore a white T-shirt there and brought a black one, so I had a bag and stored it safely in a locker.

When you sign up for membership, you also get a dedicated locker, so you can leave your tanning cream there and drop by easily whenever you have time. Personal lockers are unusual at tanning salons, so this is a Beotgo Tan advantage. For first-time visitors, they explain the details quite thoroughly, including the skin tone you want and post-tanning precautions. The guidance was really helpful because they explain things well so even a first tan can be done without side effects.

Brown tanning machine types

There are three brown tanning machines in total: two 57-bulb 225W machines and one 54-bulb 225W machine. There is also one 48-bulb 180W collagen white tanning machine. Since I wanted brown skin, I used the powerful brown tanning machine.

How to apply tanning lotion

Each tanning room has a sun cap, lotion back applicator, and other supplies. It is hard to apply tanning lotion to your back, but the back applicator makes it easy. I used the tanning lotion provided by the salon. You do not need to apply too much—just spread it evenly until your skin has a sheen. They said applying it in clumps can leave uneven patches on the skin, so it is best to spread it well.

Each room has a system air conditioner, so you can tan without getting too hot. If you sweat, just dab it lightly away. At night, tanning is by reservation, and there is a QR-scanning machine too.

A 5-minute session on the 57-bulb brown tanning machine

I used the powerful 57-bulb tanning machine. The maximum session is 8 minutes, and because the output is strong, I could tan after receiving detailed instructions beforehand. You can add one minute to your tanning time as you get used to it. Since it had been a month since my last tan, I played it safe and did 5 minutes. I did a 5-minute session and had no side effects (sunburn). I am thinking of adding one more minute for my next session.

Day-one color change after tanning

Since this was only day one, the color has not developed much yet. After another three or four sessions, I will share a follow-up review. Machine tanning does tan the skin, but tanning lotion also changes the color as it stains the skin, so you cannot achieve the color you want in just one session. I think I need a few more sessions.

Beotgo Tan Uijeongbu Branch tanning prices

There is an unlimited brown tanning pass promotion through December 10. You can get brown tanning at a reasonable price, and lots of people get white tanning these days too. If you want to return summer-tanned skin to a lighter shade, it may be worth considering one month of unlimited white tanning as well. If you are looking into body-profile tanning, skin care, or white tanning in Uijeongbu, I recommend getting a friendly consultation at Beotgo Tan Uijeongbu Branch.
