SPRAY TANNING
What is Spray Tanning ?
Spray Tanning is a popular and safe method to achieve a sun-kissed glow without exposure to harmful UV rays. Also known as Sunless Tanning, this technique uses Spray Tanning Solutions containing DHA (Dihydroxyacetone) to temporarily darken the outer layer of the skin. It’s a perfect alternative for those who want a natural-looking tan without the risks of sun damage.
How Does Spray Tanning Work ?
Spray Tanning involves applying a fine mist of tanning solution to the skin using specialized equipment, such as an airbrush or spray gun. The solution reacts with the amino acids in the skin’s surface, creating a temporary tan that develops over a few hours. Whether you choose Airbrush Tanning or Mobile Spray Tanning, the process is quick, painless, and tailored to your desired shade.
Steps of the Spray Tanning Process:
- Preparation: Before tanning, exfoliate your skin to remove dead cells for an even tan.
- Application: A fine mist of tanning solution is sprayed onto the skin, covering all desired areas.
- Development: The solution reacts with the skin’s proteins, gradually deepening to the desired shade within a few hours.
- Drying: After the application, the skin will dry quickly, usually within 5-10 minutes.
- Post-Tanning Care: To ensure the tan lasts longer, avoid water, sweat, or tight clothing for at least 4-6 hours after the tan.
This procedure ensures you get a flawless, sun-kissed glow without the harmful effects of UV exposure.
Even and Natural-Looking Tan
Achieving a flawless tan depends on proper preparation and application. Exfoliating before your session ensures an even application, while moisturizing dry areas like elbows and knees prevents uneven patches. With Organic Spray Tanning solutions, you can also enjoy a natural glow without harsh chemicals, perfect for all skin types.
Why is a spray tan better than a self-tanner?
While both Spray Tanning and Self-Tanning offer a sunless way to achieve a bronzed glow, Spray Tanning has several advantages that make it a superior choice for many people:
- Flawless Application: Applied by professionals, Spray Tans ensure even, streak-free coverage, while self-tanners can lead to streaks or missed spots.
- Customizable Shade: Technicians adjust the tan to match your skin tone, unlike self-tanners with limited shade options.
- Quick and Easy: A Spray Tan takes 15-30 minutes, while self-tanners require more time and effort to apply.
- No Streaks or Stains: Spray Tanning avoids the patchiness or staining risks of self-tanners.
- Longer-Lasting: Spray Tans last 7-10 days with proper care, outlasting most self-tanners.
- Perfect for Hard-to-Reach Areas: Professionals ensure full-body coverage, including tricky spots like your back.
- High-Quality Solutions: Spray Tanning uses professional-grade, often organic, formulas for a natural glow.
