What is a Air Brush Tan?

It's a custom way of applying sunless tanning solution to your body by a technician. It combines the latest advances in sunless tanning products with state-of-the-art Air-Brush technology.

A very fine mist of sunless tanning solution is custom applied to your body in minutes. It is a more personal and accurate way to a flawless tan by evening out pigmentation issues, or bikini lines.

A bronzer gives you immediate golden-brown color and DHA gives you a long-lasting tan.

Plus, a high quality moisturizer makes your skin feel soft and supple.

You can enhance the effectiveness of sunless spray tanning by conditioning your skin for maximum results, and then taking steps to help maintain your tan.

Note: If you are pale or fair skinned you may require two sprays one day apart.

We suggest these simple steps:

Preparation

  • If possible, exfoliate before your treatment to remove dry, flaky skin that causes uneven tanning. Dead skin cells absorb more color in some areas and prevent the application of color to the fresh skin beneath. For extremely dry skin we suggest using Sea Coral Salt Scrub a minimum of 24 hours before your session. This allows time for the oil in the scrub to be fully absorbed. The oil in the scrub blocks DHA penetration. DHA is the active ingredient, along with a cosmetic bronzer, that will produce your sunless tan.
  • Before spray tanning, your skin should be clean. However, avoid high pH products like bar soaps that stop the DHA bronzing reaction. The day you tan, try an exfoliating body wash like Norvell’s Amber Sun Moisturizing Body Scrub that can be used anytime before you tan.
  • Do not apply lotions or perfumes prior to tanning. Use deodorant very sparingly. You should shave the day before you tan. Remove make-up and jewelry before the tanning process to avoid blocking the spray mist.
  • Wear loose fitting clothing. Tight clothes can rub off the DHA bronzer and smear the cosmetic bronzer.

Maintenance

  • Immediately after your spray tanning session avoid activities that may cause you to sweat excessively to avoid streaking of the cosmetic bronzer. Use the air conditioning in your car on a hot day. Remember, you have just been “painted” with a water soluble solution. Important: You must avoid water entirely for at least four hours or you will stop the tanning action of the DHA!
  • Wait at least 6-8 hours before showering or bathing with any kind of soap or shower gel. We recommend Amber Sun Hydrating Shower Gel. The “instant color” cosmetic bronzer will wash off just as it is designed to do.
  • Chlorine is a bleach so avoid swimming in chlorine treated water for at least 24 hours after your session.
  • 24 hours after tanning and daily thereafter apply Norvell’s Pro Long Tan Extending Lotion to help maintain your skin’s health and color while promoting even wear. These products contain a light DHA bronzing boost to extend the life of your tan. Although it will not build a tan, it will help maintain it.

Remember. Healthy Skin Tans Best!
