Airbrush Spray Tan in Studio

What type of tanning solutions do you provide? 

We provide a Quick Rinse and an Original Solution. The Quick Rinse (available in bronze or clear), allows you to shower 1-6 hours after your application.

The Original Solution allows you to rinse in 12 hours, then gently shower the bronzer off your skin to reveal the natural glow.

We recommend choosing the solution that is most convenient for you and your rinse time. All of our solutions take a full 24 hours to fully develop.

How do you prepare for an airbrush tan?

At least 24 hours prior to your tan appointment: shave, wax etc if necessary. Exfoliate, we recommend using our Exfoliating Mitt. Moisturize and give extra attention to any dry spots. 
Pedicures, massages, lashes, brow tinting etc should be done at least one day before your tan. 
Day of your appointment: arrive with clean, dry skin. Showered with no body oils, no lotions, no makeup. 
During your tan, wear dark coloured undergarments. Keep tan lines in mind. Ladies may choose to be topless/bottomless. Men must wear boxers. 
Post tan: wear dark, loose clothing and avoid tight fitting shoes. Oversized sweatpants, t-shirt and zip sweater is best. Do not wear leggings!

Bring an umbrella and a rain coat if necessary. We do not want any water touching your skin post airbrush tan. Avoid sweating and water splashes until your rinse time.

Do you offer body contouring?

Yes! Our precise airbrush application technique ensures an even tan every time. We dedicate special attention to your body’s unique shape and composition to ensure your skin looks naturally sun-kissed in all the right places. If you would like specialized fine-line body contouring to emphasize the body, try our Luxury Spray Tan + Contour service.

How long does a spray tan last?

Your tan can last between 5-10 days, depending on how often you maintain your skin care such as moisturizing and how well you've prepped. Ask us about our face and body lotion extenders for purchase at your appointment. These extenders will help you extend your tan past 10 days.

Will the solution rub off and stain my clothes and sheets?

During the first 12 hours after your spray tan, the bronzer may slightly rub off on lighter clothing and sheets. If it does, being a natural sugar based solution it should wash out very easily. We do recommend dark bed sheets and clothing, or opting for a quick rinse solution that can be rinsed off before bed. 

What products should I avoid to help my tan last longer?

Bar soaps, products with Sodium Laureyl Sulfate (SLS) and mineral oil as well as petroleum based product, will all contribute to your tan fading more rapidly. Avoid long hot baths, and exposure to cholrinated water. Any skin care products with Alpha Hydroxy, Glycolic or Salicylic Acid, Retin-A and Retinol will fade your tan more quickly as well. We recommend our line of Golden Glow products & extenders to help extend the length of your tan.

Is a spray tan safe if I am pregnant or nursing?

We have many clients who spray tan using our natural solution while pregnant and/or breastfeeding. While our solution is made with natural & organic ingredients, it's just one of those things where we do advise you to discuss it with your doctor. If breastfeeding, we often recommend our Quickie Rinse solution.

What is the active tan ingredient?

DHA is appoved by the food and drug administration for use in sunless tanning products. DHA (dihydroxy acetone) is derived from sugar; synthesizes with the skins proteins, including amino acids in the outermost layer of the skin. The natural spray tan works with your natural pigments; in the epidermis (top layer) of the skin to produce a safe, natural looking sunless tan.

I have a special event, when should I book my spray tan?

We always recommend a trial tan about 3 -5 weeks before your event. This gives us the opportunity to see how the colour develops on your skin and to ensure you are happy with the shade. Your event tan should ideally be booked two days before the occasion. Let your spray tan artist know if you loved the colour of your trail tan or if you want to be a touch lighter, touch darker etc.
