So, I am getting to the end of my 10%, but have a zillion of 8% and 12% left. I know you can mix solutions, but is it something that should only be done in emergencies? I'm just wary of my 8% and in particular about the 12% cos it may go off date if I don't do this. I've already wasted a whole bottle of 14% cos it never ever gets used.

Obviously if I'm compromising results then I'll just suck it up and buy some more 10% but would rather use up the 8,10 and 12% and order it all together. x
 
I'm pretty sure that if you mix equal parts 8% and 12% it'll give you a 10% solution. HTH Sx
 
yep it is fine to do that Kim, just remember to keep it in am airtight container. Your old 10% bottle should be fine.

Equal parts of 8% and 12% will give you your 10%, just as the lady before me said xx
 
Thank you both.

I've just been on a bit of a money spree recently and this month I'm going to see if I can cut right down on my spending. If I don't need to buy more tan then I won't.

Prob will only last me another week anyway cos we've got a few tans in this weekend and are running a promo on our tans next month too.

Thank youuuuuuuux
 
hi kim just to add to what the others have said as i know your talking about our solution :D:D equal amounts of 8% and 12% make 10% thats why we do our sample packs with 1x 100ml 8% and 1X 100ml 12% that way they can mix and have a 10% as well hth

It isn't easy but under the right conditions ,wearing safety goggles , adequate protective clothing and good background light combined with a good ambient room temperature it is feasible that by by mixing an 8% with a 10% of equal proportions and baking in the oven for 45min's will make...well erm.
