Can thesse be used in a lotion that you would put on outside of the shower (body and hand lotion etc.) or does it need to be rinsed off after using?

Nancy, you can use a lotion or oil with the crystals to make a nice exfoliating scrub. But you would have to rinse everything off afterwards. The crystals are extremely gritty and work by buffing and polishing your skin. They don't dissolve.

It needs to be rinsed off afterward. I mix and apply it with my face wash, which works nicely, but does need to be washed away after, as the crystals do not dissolve.

You just rub it on as you would do any lotion. Very simple. In my opinion it works best after a hot shower

NO!!!! I used this today in the pool and it had a spot that was no longer sticking which mean water got in it and probably washed away the medicine..sucks b/c I just put it on this morning. It did stay on fine in the shower though but NOT in the pool!

tanning lotions can all be used outdoor :) they're heat activated so you can use them in the real sun as well as in a tanning booth

I would use it after a shower while still wet so that it is absorbed easier and would not leave you so greasy. Afterwards, just pat yourself dry. Experiment until you have the amount of moisturizer you prefer on your skin so you don't feel greasy.

You can rinse it off in the shower, but you have to apply it before-hand and leave it on the recommended amount of time before rinsing it off.

You need some kind of rays to get tan. There is some bronze color that shows up on your skin but that's just the bronzer in the lotion. It washes off in the shower. This isn't a self tanning lotion but it does work well in tanning beds and outside.

I don't think it absolutely needs to be rinsed off, however I don't believe it's meant to be left on. It has a bit of a greasy residue so you'll probably want to rinse off, maybe even wash off with a cleanser.

Yes. I used a circular motion, with liquid bath soap for about 10-20 seconds in each spot. Similar the exfoliating your face, that motion. It should be used in the shower.

You can use it instead of aftershave. I like to add a spray or two of whatever cologne my wife and daughters gave me for my birthday or Christmas, etc. It has no scent of its own. As good or better than most lotions, which is what it is.

I have never washed it off. I suppose it might irritate some people's skin, 20 minutes is long enough to absorb, wash it off to stop the irritation.

I put it on at the end of the shower and just lightly spray off and pat dry so some is left on. I have put small drops on at night on really dry patches and patted dry without rinsing and it has been fine. It takes the rough skin off with the rinsing and exfoliates, but don't think it would hurt to leave it on. It would be very oily.

Its for tanning beds, but can also be used as a lotion when you get out of the bath tub. Love it!!

No. This browning lotion is not a sunless lotion. If you apply this lotion without going into the sun when you shower, it will all come off and you will be left where you started. It should be used either in a tanning bed or when outside in the sun. I also wouldn't recommend wearing this lotion out or with clothing as it is greasy and will stain fabric.

You can leave on over night and then rinse off or after shower just use a dime size on the palms of your hands, then apply lightly on wet or damp hair. If you use too much, it can look greasy.

You might want to use after your shower at night has to set at least an hour...than in morning rinse off... Yes it does come off but using it every other day builds up your tan...

It is a topical solution so it is used at the souse of the pain. It absorbs better after a hot shower. If a shower before is not preferred then wash your hands and the area.
