Overview
Onyx HE is an indoor tanning bed lotion made for men, combining a bronzer with a moisturizing and skin firming formula in a 6.76 fluid ounce bottle.
This is formulated specifically for tanning bed use rather than outdoor sun exposure, pairing a bronzer with what Onyx calls a muscle bronzing complex aimed at men who want a darker tan look alongside color development. It is paraben, SLES and SLS free, and the brand lists it as cruelty free, dermatologist tested and gluten free.
- 6.76 fl oz bottle, Genuine Gentleman scent
- Accelerator plus bronzer plus muscle bronzing complex
- Paraben, SLES and SLS free
Who it's for
Fits men who use tanning beds regularly and want a scent and formula marketed toward them rather than a unisex or women's tanning lotion. Not intended for outdoor sun protection, since this is a bed accelerator and bronzer, not a sunscreen.
Pros and cons
- Paraben, SLES and SLS free formula
- Dermatologist tested and cruelty free per the brand
- Combines accelerator, bronzer and moisturizer in one bottle
- Formulated for tanning beds, not outdoor sun exposure
- Scent (patchouli, mint, grapefruit) will not suit everyone
Performance notes
The formula pairs an accelerator with a bronzer, meaning color builds from two directions: the accelerator is meant to speed melanin development under UV lamps while the bronzer adds an immediate cosmetic tint on top. The muscle bronzing complex and skin firming ingredients are aimed at making muscle definition look more pronounced once tanned, on top of the base moisturizing formula.
