Airbrush Tanning

Everyone wants to have that healthy bronzed tan look but these days sun damage to the skin is a real concern. That is where sunless tanning comes in; you can get the sun-kissed look without damaging your skin.

Pre-Tan Preparation
• Shower and thoroughly exfoliate your skin approximately 1-12 hours prior to your tanning service. This is very important, as it will remove the dead loose surface skin cells. This will allow you to have the longest lasting tan possible. Please, do not injure the skin with rough exfoliation.
• Skin should be clean, dry and product residue free before being airbrushed. For optimal results, do not use moisturizing lotions, deodorants, body oils, shaving creams or makeup before your tanning appointment. These products can negatively affect the result of your tan.

• Shave at least 8-24 hours prior to your airbrush tanning session. If you prefer to shave after your airbrush tan application, you will speed up the tan fade process, as some tanned skin cells are removed with every shave.
• Schedule your manicure, pedicure and hair removal services 24 hours prior to your tanning appointment.
• Style hair off of the face and neck on tanning days.
• Remove all jewelry before being airbrushed.
• Wear dark, loose, inexpensive clothing and loose shoes or flip-flops to your tanning appointment.
• If you choose to wear a swim suit, bring a dark, snug, inexpensive swimsuit or under garment to create "tan lines".
• Our knowledge and experience enables us to choose an airbrush recipe that will best
  compliment your unique skin tone and will leave you with a natural looking tan. We carry different variations of tanning solutions, but keep in mind it may take a few sessions to find the best product for your specific needs, and achieve the desired result

Post Tan Preparation
• Wear dark, loose fitting, inexpensive cotton clothing for 8 hours, while your tan is developing..
• To give you the best tan possible, delay showering for at least 8 hours after your sunless tanning session. During this "processing time" you should refrain from any physical activities that may cause your skin to become wet. This includes active housework, exercise, swimming, bathing, showering, sauna sessions, massages, heat exposure and other activities that require the use of liquids or cause your body to sweat. You are free to resume these activities after your tan has fully developed and you've had your first shower. Please plan accordingly.
• Do not wear tight clothing, shoes, undergarments, bra straps or sports bras until your tan has fully developed and you have showered.
• Your first shower should be a light shower with warm water only, as you are simply just rinsing the excess airbrush solution off of the surface of your skin. Do not exfoliate during this shower. Exfoliation will lighten or remove your sunless tan..
• Gently pat dry with a towel, do not roughly rub dry.
