This really depends on your skin type. If you are just getting started and generally hard to tan then you should start with a basic accelerator like Australian Gold Dark Tanning Accelerator to get the tanning process boosted and prevent any staining or streaking. Once you have established a good base then you can move up to the bronzing lotions. However, if you are an intermediate to advanced tanner then starting with a bronzing lotion is the best way to get dark fast! These products are specifically designed to increase your skins ability to tan and the results are far darker then tanning without them.
