Got a few seconds?  That’s all it takes to get a beautiful sunless Mystic spray tan!!  OR  schedule a Custom Airbrush Spray tan w/one of our technicians!!  Immediately before Mystic or after Airbrushing, feel free to ‘Double Dip’, which is a combination of a spray tan & a tanning session in our stand up booth.  Before Mystic allows pores to open for better results, & after Airbrushing to set the tan & activate the melanin in your system.  Feel free to ask if you have further questions.  Most people find it best to spray tan late in the afternoon or evening, and showering the next day.

 

Spray tan prep…

You should shower, exfoliate & be clean shaven(shave w/hair conditioner to help prevent razor bumps) or waxed morning of or day before either spray tan service.  Exfoliating the dry/dead layers of your skin is important to improve the overall look of your spray tan. Don’t have time to exfoliate?  You may purchase one of our exfoliating towelettes for your convenience.

 

What to wear…

The Mystic booth is private & is best to spray naked.  This way nothing you wear gets wet & you may get dressed immediately after toweling off.  However, try to come in with loose fitting clothes and shoes.

Custom Airbrush is by a technician.  We recommend either a bathing suit or old bra & panties

Do not apply anything to your elbow, knees, hands or feet prior to your session.  We will supply you with barrier cream, hair net & lip balm(airbrush only).

 

Aftercare…

DO NOT apply moisturizers, deodorants, go swimming, working out, dancing, or anything that requires sweating or getting wet for a minimum of 4-8 hrs after spray tanning.  Your spray tan needs time to develop. The longer it’s left on the better the tan.  However, some skin tones may consider showering sooner than others.  Speak with your consultant if any questions.

 

Maintaining your Sunless Tan…

When showering, do not use any abrasive soaps or exfoliants.  It is best to use the palms of your hands with a liquid body wash for lathering & washing.  Some bronzer may wash off, but this is extra solution not needed.  You’ll be left with a beautiful tan.  After showering, be sure to moisturize generously with a good tan extender(see consultant for great tan extenders that we carry).  Hydrating your skin on a daily basis helps you to maintain any tan & is best for your skin everyday.  This process may help you maintain your spray tan for up to 10 days.  Chlorinated pools can dry out your skin, so make sure you moisturize immediately upon exiting a pool.  Keep in mind, that chlorinated pools may also strip some of your color as it’s a cosmetic tan, & chlorine is a bleach product. It is best if you will be poolside, to purchase one of our self tanning lotions to help maintain your spray tan. 

 

DO NOT USE…

Moisturizers with oil, petroleum, Vaseline, baby oil or mineral oils.  They are all bi-products of crude oil, processed, that only coat your skin & provide a barrier to the skin & don’t allow your skin to breathe.  This only allows for drier skin.  They cannot penetrate your skin to moisturize.  They may cause your tan to dry up faster & flake off unevenly.

 

Extra Information…

UV-FREE spray tans do not protect you from burning in the sun.  It’s purely a cosmetic tan.  Please be sure to use the proper protection, i.e.-tan or sunscreen, when going to sunny destinations.  If looking for a base tan prior to your destination, speak with one of our consultants for a tanning package to suit your needs.
