Looking and feeling confident shouldn’t have to cost a fortune, which is why The SunShine Co. has teamed up with Student Beans to bring you an exclusive student tanning discount.
With 20% off our tanning packages, you can enjoy a healthy glow all year round without breaking the bank. Here’s everything you need to know about the offer, plus tips on how to make the most of your student discount.
Why Students Love Indoor Tanning
Indoor tanning isn’t just about the glow, it’s about how it fits into a busy student lifestyle. With deadlines, part-time jobs, and social plans, you don’t always have time to be outdoors, especially in the UK where sunnier days are rare.
A few minutes in a SunShine Co. tanning bed gives you consistent colour and a boost of confidence, without impacting your schedule. Tanning also offers extra lifestyle benefits that students appreciate:
- Confidence on a budget: Tanning for nights out, holidays, or graduation photos can make you feel more polished and put together. Thanks to student discounts and package deals, it’s an affordable way to look your best without overspending.
- Mood and motivation: Exposure to UV light could potentially lift your mood during darker months, which is why many people use tanning to combat seasonal affective disorder (SAD). That little boost of sunlight can make a big difference during exam season or winter term.
- A Vitamin D top-up: While tanning beds aren’t a replacement for a healthy lifestyle, UV exposure could potentially help stimulate vitamin D production, especially during months when sunshine is in short supply.
- Convenience and control: Sessions are quick, easy to fit in around uni life, and always consistent, so no need to worry about the weather or waiting for summer to arrive.

Sunbed Tips for Students
If you want to make your tanning package minutes go further, there are a few simple steps that can help you get the most out of every session without stretching your wallet.
Using a tanning accelerator beforehand helps stimulate melanin production, so you can achieve quicker, more noticeable results.
After your session, moisturising your skin is key to preventing dryness or flaking, which keeps your tan looking fresh for longer.
Staying hydrated is also important, as skin absorbs UV more evenly and maintains colour better, so make sure you drink plenty of water before and after your sessions.
Finally, planning shorter sessions to gradually build a base tan is a smart, budget-friendly approach. Once your skin has adapted, you can extend your sessions for a deeper, longer-lasting glow, all while keeping your skin healthy and cared for.
