Achieving the Perfect Glow: Top Tanning Accelerators for Your Skin Type

Your perfect tan doesn’t come from just any lotion—it comes from the right tanning accelerator, tailored to your skin’s needs. Whether you’re just starting your tanning journey or already deep into bronze territory, the product you choose plays a huge role in how fast, even, and long-lasting your tan will be.

Let’s break it down by skin type—and show you three Onyx game-changers that make it easy to get the results you want.


🌸 For Fair Skin: Booster – Gentle Yet Powerful

If you have light or sensitive skin, Booster is your new tanning bestie. It’s designed specifically for fair skin, helping you tan gradually while keeping your skin calm, hydrated, and happy.

💧 No bronzers – for a natural, streak-free glow
🌿 Coconut oil + Aloe Vera – to soothe and hydrate
🧴 Ultra-light texture – absorbs fast, perfect for beginners
Melanin-activating complex – builds a tan without irritation

Booster gives you control and confidence, especially if you’re nervous about starting too dark, too fast. It’s also a favorite for those who prefer a clean, white lotion feel with no stains.


⚡ For Medium to Tan Skin: Dark Tanning Accelerator – Fast, Fierce, and Bronzer-Free

Once you’ve built up a base tan—or if your skin tans easily—Dark Tanning Accelerator brings the heat. It’s one of Onyx’s strongest bronzer-free accelerators, created for tanners who want real results without the wait.

🔥 Maximum tyrosine concentration – for rapid melanin activation
💪 Firming complex – tones and tightens while you tan
🌱 Vegan + Cruelty-Free – and packed with skin-loving nutrients
💧 Deep hydration – no dry patches, no flaking

This is your go-to if you want to tan smarter and darker—without relying on cosmetic bronzers. The results come from you, not the bottle.


🖤 For Deep Tanning & Color Boost: Black Caviar – Luxury + Intensity

For experienced tanners or darker skin tones, Black Caviar is pure indulgence. It’s a bronzer + accelerator hybrid made for the boldest tans—and it’s infused with caviar extract for a boost of glamour and care.

🖤 DHA + natural bronzers – for immediate and long-term dark color
💎 Caviar extract – rich in vitamins, proteins, and minerals
💧 Silky-smooth formula – deeply hydrates and softens skin
🔥 Perfect for advanced tanners – or anyone ready to level up

This one’s for you if you want depth, drama, and ultra-dark vibes with a skincare twist.
