Instant Results & Convenience = Spray Tanning Popularity

The art of Spray Tanning has exploded with popularity across the nation as a time-saving alternative for people who desire a golden glow but don’t have the minutes or hours to waste soaking up sun the natural way. Unlike spray tanning booths, a technician applied Spray Tan is more of an art form. This method does not utilize a spray booth, but a trained technician sprays you manually with a spray gun for an even and natural-looking glow.



So how exactly does spray tanning produce such a natural glow? The fine mist that’s released from the spray tanning airbrush coats the skin with tiny pigmented particles that seep into the layers of the skin to deliver a natural glow as it moistures. Skin is left with a silky-smooth feeling that also shines with a rich caramel-to- mocha color (depending on your preference).

Experts say fast results are one of the main reasons people turn to spray tans for that golden look. "With everybody having a busy life, it takes more time to tan in a tanning bed than it does with a spray tan so they get that almost instant tan that's gonna last them five to 10 days."  Spray tanners also say they are very aware of the risk of skin cancer.

Summer Rankin say "It's quick, it's easy, you get results fast and it's much healthier than having to be in the sun all day."

Leah Richardson agrees, "I choose to spray tan because it's fast and it's a lot better for your skin."

Not Sure About Spray Tanning?


The negative press of UV and SUN tanning and the general public’s increasing desire to look their best has launched what is to be the biggest trend to have hit the beauty industry.  Spray tanning is the latest form of tanning and has increased in popularity thanks to the enthusiastic response of Hollywood celebrities.  Many Hollywood celebrities and models are absolutely hooked on spray tanning and have added “Star Approval” to this hot new trend.  With the recent explosion in spray tanning popularity it’s no surprise that our email box and Facebook has seen an increase in the questions about spray tanning. I think the thing that surprised us here is that we have done something like 1,200 spray tans in the last few years, so every once in a while we forget just how quickly spray tanning is becoming a safe sunless tanning option for many indoor and outdoor tanners.

We wanted to take a few minutes and quickly explain a few things about spray tanning so that any of you that might still be a little curious, might have a better idea of what spray tanning is.

About Spray Tanning

  • Natural looking just off the beach color
  • Instant results
  • Safe tanning alternative to tanning in the sun or in a tanning bed
  • Great for last minute events

Approved by the FDA, along with the American Academy of Dermatologists, The Skin Cancer Foundation and The American Medical Association, spray tanning is one of the safest and healthiest ways to tan.  You look thinner, feel sexier; it helps disguise cellulite, stretch marks, blemishes and imperfections.  If you don’t have the time to visit the tanning salon, you can still have a great looking tan without the harmful UV rays.

Airbrush or spray tanning is a fast drying, brown spray on color solution. Most sunless uv free spray tan solutions give you color in two ways. First with a Cosmetic Bronzer (instant) that is visible the moment you apply the product. The next forming color you will receive from your uv free tan is with a DHA Bronzer (dihydroxyacetone) which reacts with the Amino Acids in your skin to develop color anywhere from 2-24 hours with absolutely NO ORANGE color. Streak-free formula’s have built in sheeting action to eliminate spotting and streaking which you would get with many store bought sunless tanning products. Many uv free solutions such as ours utilize skin firming, and anti-aging technology for younger, healthy looking skin. Our premier solution is loaded with essential vitamins and moisturizing agents to keep your skin hydrated, smooth, and looking/feeling fresh.

Love, Lipstick, and Pearls;...Product Review: Spray Tan

Review: Spray Tan

With the wedding coming up, I want to definitely have a "bridal glow", not a Jersey Shore tan and I don't want to look like Casper. I've never been one for fake baking, but have used self-tanners in the past. For all the bridal events coming up (shower, bachelorette party) I wanted to have the tan nailed perfectly by the wedding.

I've heard tons and tons about spray tans so I wanted to check them out. I Googled and asked around and came across Premiere Sunless Tan in Chino, CA. Kari is the owner of PST, it's a mobile service so you can head to her place, or have her come to your home or work for the tan. Sorry it's not a chain store ladies, but if you live in the area you should definitely check them out! I set up my appointment with the owner Kari and headed over.

I had a custom full body spray and I'm so happy with the results! Kari uses a tanner that has bronzer in it so you see the results right away. My tan lines from last summer are barely visible!

Anyways, the tan is the exact color that I was looking for! My tan is even all over my body and I didn't have any orangeness from the spray at all! The color looks very natural, like it's the middle of summer or I just got back from a vacation.

Everything I wear looks so much better now and I don't have any need to wear bronzer on top of the tan. I feel so much more confident and I definitely look thinner do to that 5-10 lbs a tan can shave off of you.  I've never cared too much about being tan, but now I think I'm addicted!! I'm so happy with the results, I bought a package and have 4 tans to use before the big day.
