What does the original smell like? Are there samples of it? If the new version is in production now, what does that mean in terms of hitting the shelves?

Another question. I've read that it helps for tanning also. Does it help with tanning in places that it is applied or are some ingredients absorbed into the body that makes skin tone change? Are there samples of the new formula? Are you still beta testing? Need any more betas?

Atomic Meltdown is primarily a tanning lotion with a bit of the Napalm formula thrown in for good measure. I like it because it helps give a deeper tan and works as well some of the more expensive tanning lotions (and burns a bit of fat).

I'm not sure if it has any bronzers in it, so I'm not sure if it will change skin tone from simple application, and even if it does contain bronzers it won't change your skin tone to any appreciable degree unless you jump in the tanning bed or hit the beach with it.

IMO, it smells like maple syrup. I've got a lot of awesome comments about pancakes after tanning. And I believe you can buy sample packets on NP.

I probably sound like a RPN shill but I'm just really, really impressed with many of their products.

Nailed it right on, sir.

Rugger - we used a similar scent profile to Java Lather, though I was a bit heavy handed initially, trying to cover up the active ingredients and Napalm. Since then, I have switched to an ultra-pure Shea Butter that has been further processed to eliminate the natural shea scent, as well as reducing the overall scent.

By now, the originals should all be gone, and replaced in stock by the new version. The ingredients themselves interact with skin and melanocytes to cause an increase in melanin production - nothing systemic. It also contains a potent anti-oxidant blend that helps mitigate any potential UV damage and helps to prevent skin aging from tanning.

The color is excellent and, for right now, the price cannot be beat. It will be returning to regular price in a month or so, most likely.

So color will only be enhanced where it is applied?

[dsade]

yes, sir

Sorry...we can only do so much at this point, and the government frowns strongly on systemic transdermals.
