Do solariums kill? I used to work in a solarium a couple of years ago, we sold a 12 pack of solarium sessions 12mins for lie-down or 6 stand-up as it's stronger. 2 Japanese girls came in one day bought the pack each and some cream, and they stayed for 36 or 48 mins which is not recommended. they were black after 2 days.

The 360 ml maple syrup sounds a lot, but it's needed for sweetness. There's no other form of sugar (processd or raw) in the recipe apart from the plant sugars in the maple syrup.
