Sunless Tanning

               Spray Tanning             35. per session

Spray tanning or Airbrush tanning is a safe, quick and easy way to get the golden color of summer without the risks of damaging rays.


Preparing before spray tan is crucial. What you do can mean a difference between a good and a bad spray tan. Exfoliate before you go for a spray tan.

 

The spray tanning solution affects only the dead skin cells. Your skin has a build up of dead skin cells on top of it. The thicker the layer, the sooner it will rub off. If you exfoliate, the layer will be very shallow, and it will take a while for it to “build up”. Your tan will last longer. It is important to use either exfoliating glove or products that don't contain any oils, otherwise the oily barrier can stop the spray tanning solution getting through.

Don’t wear any deodorant, moisturizer or makeup before spray tan.

 Many deodorants will stop spray tanning solution going through. Some others will turn the armpits green, although not very cute, it will not stay green... it is the chemical reaction between the deodorant and the DHA.

There are a few moisturizers and makeup products that can act as a barrier, not letting the full amount of the solution to attach itself to the skin (that said I had very many wonderful tans with moisturizers and make up on- but you never know which ones will mess the tan up).

As soon as you've had your spray tan you can apply deodorant and make up.

 Wear loose clothing after your tanning session.

Although you wipe off the excess of the spray tanning solution with a towel after your session, or dry out in front of a fan (airbrush tan), the tan needs to “set”, and the process will take about an hour. It is best to bring clothes and shoes as loose as possible to wear after your spray tanning session, to make sure nothing rubs off.


If you need to shave or wax your legs do it definitely before and make sure that you wash your legs after waxing to remove any wax residue. If you shave your legs after spray on tan, you will take off some of your tan with the hair.

Those steps are quite necessary before your spray tan, unless you want to spend some time and money experimenting...

 Caring for spray tan involves keeping it moisturized, and using specialized products to extend it's life. 


Keep your spray tan moist

1. Caring for spray tan involves moisturizing like crazy. Before your spray on tan, you exfoliated, so the layer of dead skin cells is flat and shallow. Then you had your tan, which was developed in the dead skin layer.After your tan you have to guard it from becoming dry and rubbing off. The best way to do it is to moisturize it morning and night. (You start after you had a shower.) It means, dead skin cells will be moist, and stay “plastered” to your body.

2. Avoid things that will exfoliate your skin excessively. How about hot, luxurious bath after your spray on tan? I don’t think so! That will make your skin exfoliate faster, as will rolling in the sand on the beach. A short swim in the sea will not take much off however, but a swim in the chlorinated pool will.

3. Use gentle shower products. Some soaps are too harsh, using them can take tan off in patches. If you have to use the soap, use good quality ones that moisturize. Better still; a gentle shower gel will be much better for your spray tanned skin.
