FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
HOW DOES AIRBRUSH TANNING WORK?
The Questions WE Asked Before Trying Airbrush Tanning!
The active ingredient in virtually all sunless tanning formulas is DHA (dihydroxyacetone), a carbohydrate (monosaccharide sugar) compound approved by the FDA for use in externally applied sunless tanning solutions. DHA is usually derived from a vegetable source like beets or sugar cane. When DHA is applied to the skin, it causes a harmless chemical reaction with the existing amino acids in the skin to produce a tan, much like the sun does, but without UVA and UVB damage. The airbrush tanning solution is manually sprayed in a fine mist all over the body or desired areas. There are no tanning beds or spray booths. The process will take about 20-30 minutes including drying time.
IS THIS SAFE FOR MY SKIN?
DHA has been approved by the FDA for cosmetic applications. It has been used for over 30 years without any harmful effect.
NOTE: IF YOU ARE PREGNANT, CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN PRIOR TO YOUR TANNING SESSION.
HOW LONG WILL MY TAN LAST?
Depending on your activities and skin type, the tan should last 5-10 days. With follow-up applications, you can maintain your tan indefinitely. USE LOTION/MOISTURIZER ON YOUR SKIN DAILY TO EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR TAN AS WELL AS HELP YOUR TAN FADE EVENLY. Tight clothing may cause the tan to naturally exfoliate if any material rubs against the skin, so keep this in mind when dressing after application.
WHAT SHOULD I WEAR FOR MY TANNING SESSION?
Swimwear is the most popular choice, although our female clients may opt for no tan lines. Males must wear a swimsuit or boxers.
WILL I STINK?
The solution has a faint odor to it, so slight that it is not necessary to shower before going out. Most do not notice any odor at all. After showering for the first time, any fragrance will be completely gone....NO JOKE!
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SET UP YOUR MOBILE TANNING SYSTEM?
Upon arriving at your location, your tantress will be ready to begin the session in approximately five minutes. All we need is an electrical outlet!
HOW MUCH DOES A TANNING SESSION COST?
An individual tanning session costs $65 in our studio, and we have packages that lower each tan's price to as little as $52 each! Please call for mobile tanning estimates and day / week rates. Brides enjoy complimentary tanning when their bridesmaids tan too! Please call for details.
WILL THE TAN ACTUALLY BE EVEN ENOUGH TO WEAR A SWIMSUIT WITHOUT FLAWS?
Abso-flipping-lutely!
