So, I used to use a tan boosting product from Tan Tropics, but as they are out of stock for the summer, I find myself looking for a replacement. Has anyone used the fox tan or melanoboost and could recommend either? Thanks all!!

I’ve used the 2 step Fox Tan system for a while now. Been through 1 bottles of the daily use accelerator and partially used the rapid mist. Tbh, I didn’t see any difference with those. That being said, I’ve been using their rapid caramel kiss by itself and have gotten STUPID dark! Any hour each side and I swear I’m a good shade darker each time! I’ve not tried Melanoboost but I’ve used Bali Body watermelon and it’s just ok. Hope this helps!

Bizcut, where did you learn of the Fox Tan system? Does your tanning salon carry it? Melanoboost looks intriguing but it’s expensive and Fox Tan’s Caramel Kiss is a little more budget friendly. It looks like they both work the same general way, by prompting faster/easier melanin production, albeit with different active ingredients to accomplish that.
OP, if you spring for one of these products (or something different —I’m really intrigued by these melanin boosters) please let us know how it works for you!
Bizcut, thanks so much for your input! I’m probably going to give Caramel Kiss a try 🙂

I’ve actually known about Fox Tan for 3 or 4 years now but didn’t want to spend that much and wait for weeks or months to get it from Australia. Recently though, Ulta started carrying it so you can purchase in store or online. Yes they both seem work in the same way but the bottle are really small so personally I can’t justify the 2 step system. I too am also interested in Melanoboost but again, it’s from Australia 😩. Tbh, the BEST thing I’ve found that works for me is Melanotan 2 injections (please don’t judge). I started last summer, took a winter break from it and started back up in April with no side effects other than a little nausea after the injection. It’s cut my tanning time and effort in half! If you try Melanoboost please post the review if possible and good luck!

I have been SO tempted by the Melanotan 2!! The wiki scared me away, though, and I’m super squeamish about the method. Have you tried the nasal spray? Can you recommend a good source? (Feel free to private message if the moderator/board admin doesn’t want it discussed here; I understand that it’s controversial) Yes, I’ll definitely post feedback here if I spring for the Melanoboost (or the Fox Tan, for that matter; happy to hear we can get TFT from Ulta!)

You don't even feel it go into your fat if you're doing it properly. If you happen to be an MJ smoker that will greatly subside any mild nausea or flushing experienced. I can get dark on my own but like they said it's easier to maintain without constantly going to the salon. It's pretty cheap too. I would think injection into fat works better than nasal since that is where melanin resides. Kim Kardashian uses it. Allegedly. (For legal purposes lol)

Absolutely melanoboost all the way. I've used both. Used fox tan after my supply of melanoboost ran out. Not as good results. But I thibk combined.. The results could be great. I'll be trying that this summer.

I have already used it twice and tanned once.... can't wait for the Boost to really kick in....
