Default Cal-Tan CYPHER

Has anyone got this lotion in yet?

We just got it in this morning, and I'm going to try it out this afternoon. I'll try to post results tomorrow.

I will say it's one of the best smelling lotions I've ever smelled and the little I rubbed in my hands was silky silky smooth and not greasy what so ever.

Jeff,
It's very light, fresh, almost lemony, but not quite. Really hard to explain.

Mine should be coming today and I will be tanning with it later today.

I will be using one of those cute heart stickers to see my results!!

I bet that will look really good on me.

Come to think of it a dolphin or butterfly may look better.

Got some, I don't like the smell at all....enough that I probably won't try it.

And it's only 6.7 oz. I'm sorry, I really don't think for $100 for that amount it will be that great. For that price it better kicks fuggin azz! But I bet it won't. The bottle is the nicest part and I think people will not want to throw the bottle out.

$119 for non bronzer, $124 for bronzer. It WILL sell if you know how.

Everyone said the same thing when CT7 came out and it's been one of our best sellers for years.

I've been wanting to try it as well, I have some sample packs but I'm really dark right now so I'll let my tan fade a little before trying it out

I believe the product is supposed to have some protein in it that will make the skin make melanin before you get into the tanning light.

Don't know if it is marketing or fact but I am eager to test the lotion out.

I tried it Tues and it was really nice....smell was nice, colour was really good. Lots of compliments on the colour. No after tan odour. My skin felt great. I am impressed with it and I am usually a DS lotion user. $124 - $134 suggested retail here.

I love it. LOVE IT. I don't like bronzers so i used the step one, non bronzer. NICE! My employee used cypher bronzer on one leg and the new Crystal on the other leg and said the leg with Cypher was noticably darker.

I got an email today from one of the reps that used Cypher with bronzer while visiting my salon, tanned on Mastersun.

Just wanted you both to know.


I AM REALLY FRICKEN DARK.

I was stopped a couple times in Vancouver and today in Winnipeg- people asking were I got my tan. I told them the truth. Island Cove
combo of Cypher and mastersun.

Yes it does. I can't remember the exact name, melanotan or something like that, that enhanses your natural melanin production.

It does Kick Fuggin Azz! We sold CT7 and destinay for over $100 like wild fire. Those customers will eat this up!

But, you use those to sell the $100 bottles, and you use the $100 bottles to sell the $80 bottles and you use the $80 bottles to sell the $60 bottles and you use the $60 bottles to sell the $40 bottles and so on. And I believe Uvalux touched on this very same sales strategy in the seminar, this very same sales strategey that has worked awesome in my salon. If your top priced lotion is a $60 bottle, you will sell mostly $40 bottles. Do you want to sell $100 bottles of lotion? then you gotta stock the $120 bottle!
