 Airbrush tanning does not protect your skin from UV rays. Always wear a sunscreen!

Airbrush tanning is a revolutionary way to get a natural looking sun kisses tan without the UV damaged caused by the sun. It is not a dye-the active ingredient is Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), an all natural sugar by product and is FDA approved. It is a year -round-and healthier-alternative to baking in the sun or using tanning beds. The DHA works with the proteins and enzymes in the top layer of the skin to create each individuals own tan.

The DHA solution must remain on the skin for a minimum of 6 hours, preferably 8 hours, after which it may be showered off. Each person depth of color will vary- depending on the individuals own skin tone. The solution is tinted  with bronze color. This color guide will wash off with your first shower.

The average tan last about a week. Each tan will fade differently due to many factors including dryness of skin, after tan skin care, the amount of time spent in water or exceriseing, and the skin's own rate of exfoliation.

Preparing for your Airbrush Tan

Exfoliate well a few days before if possible, especially if you are prone to dry skin, and moisturize well for a week before. DO NOT Moisturize on the day you come in for your tan.

Wear loose clothing, to wear after your tan- nylons and other tight clothing or shoes may dislodge the tanning solutions even if you are completely dry when leaving, sweats, shorts and flip flops work great.  If you wear shorts, it is a good idea to bring an old towel for you to sit on for the ride home.

Wear your hair back or in a pony tail.

Choose dark clothing, or something old to be tanned in as solution will stain clothing.

Don't wear makeup, lotions, deodorant or other body products before your tanning.

Give your tan about 6 to 8 hours before showering, exercising or otherwise getting wet. After 6-8 hours, feel free to shower. Do not be surprised when you see the color guide of the solution wash down the drain- it is not your tan. Your own natural sun kissed tan will be underneath.

Moisturize your skin regularly after tanning - avoid Dove products or products that contain mineral oils as they may cause early fading.

Pamper the skin your in after you have an airbrushed tan. After showering, use a gentle patting motion rather than rubbing your skin dry.

Expect products with glycolic acid or alpha hydroxy and other "exfoliating" ingredients to also prematurely fade your tan. These products are made to exfoliate skin and anything that exfoliates skin will also take your tan with it.

Don't spend long periods of time in the water while having a airbrush tan. Water makes your skin soft and will make it exfoliate quicker, thereby shortening the length of your tan.

 

 

 

Remember

Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize

to extend the life of your TAN!

How often you will need to refresh your tan will depend on several factors.

Skin condition: Some people have dryer skin and flake a lot, some don't. Oily skin will retain a tan longer than dry skin.

Exfoliation: If  you did not exfoliate properly, your tan may start to flake much sooner than it should. Since the chemical process affects only the top layer of skin, as your skin sloughs off, your tan can go with it. Your skin must be smooth and clean to get a smooth, clean tan. The more you tan, the easier it is to see the skin you need to exfoliate.

After obtaining your base tan, you can generally get by with tanning once a week. The less you expose your tan and skin to water the longer your tan will last.

Get in the habit od moisturizing your skin morning and at night between tanning sessions.

Try shaving the night before tanning and not right before you go for your sessions.

The time of year will affect your skin, and therefore, your tan. As your skin changes with the seasons, you will need to keep dry skin moisturized.

Long hot baths or showers are death to tans ( but great for preparing to exfoliate.) The skin soaks and softens with length of time exposed and speeds up the exfoliation process.

Airbrush Tanning is perfect for:

  • Weddings
  • Proms
