Organic Spray Tanning.

Exfoliate 24–48 hours before your appointment, shave or wax at least 24 hours beforehand when possible, and arrive with clean, product-free skin. Avoid lotions, oils, deodorant, makeup, and perfume on the day of your appointment because these can create a barrier between your skin and the tanning solution.

Yes. If you normally shave, do it at least 24 hours before your appointment when possible. This gives the skin time to settle and helps reduce the chance of uneven development around freshly opened follicles.

Yes. Waxing should be completed at least 24 hours before your spray tan so the skin has time to calm before the solution is applied.

Moisturizing in the days leading up to your appointment is helpful, especially if your skin is dry. On the day of your spray tan, skip moisturizer unless we specifically recommend otherwise, because product residue may affect even color development.

Wear loose, dark clothing and sandals whenever possible. Tight clothing, leggings, socks, bras, and fitted shoes can create friction while the tan is still developing.

Yes. Remove watches, rings, necklaces, bracelets, and other jewelry before entering the booth to help avoid tan lines and allow more even coverage.

Most appointments take about 10–15 minutes from start to finish. The actual spray process inside the booth only takes a few minutes.

Yes. Your session takes place in a private automated booth, so you can feel comfortable throughout the process.

Yes. Many clients choose to tan nude to minimize tan lines. Because the booth is private, what you wear during the session is based on your personal comfort level.

We provide barrier cream, sticky feet, a disposable hair net, and optional disposable undergarments. We will also explain how to use each item before your session.

No. The Opulence Sunless booth gives simple voice-guided instructions and walks you through four easy positions for even coverage.

The Opulence Sunless booth features a heated downdraft system that helps keep you comfortable while drawing overspray downward. This creates a cleaner and more comfortable tanning experience.

DHA, or dihydroxyacetone, is the active tanning ingredient used in professional spray tanning. Our solutions use naturally derived plant-based DHA that reacts with amino acids in the outermost layer of dead skin cells to create temporary cosmetic color.

Yes. The professional organic solutions we selected use naturally derived plant-based DHA, commonly sourced from plant sugars such as sugar beet or sugar cane.

A spray tan works through a surface-level cosmetic reaction between DHA and amino acids in the outermost layer of dead skin cells. The color develops over several hours and fades as those cells naturally shed.

DHA is designed to work on the outermost layer of dead skin cells and create cosmetic color on the skin surface. It does not tan living skin or stimulate melanin production.

No. A spray tan provides cosmetic color only and does not provide UV protection. Continue using sunscreen and protective clothing whenever you are outdoors.

When the solution, development time, and shade are matched appropriately to your skin tone, the goal is a natural-looking bronze rather than an orange result. Proper preparation and aftercare also matter.

Most clients enjoy their spray tan for 5–7 days. With good preparation, daily moisturizing, and spray tan-friendly aftercare, some clients maintain beautiful color for up to 10 days.

Your spray tan fades because the colored outer layer of dead skin cells naturally sheds over time. Dry skin, hot showers, chlorine, salt water, shaving, and exfoliation can speed up fading.

Cosmetic bronzer is temporary guide color that gives immediate color and helps show where the solution was applied. It rinses off during your first shower. Your developed color comes from DHA and continues to appear over the next several hours.

Classic 8-Hour solution should be rinsed after about 8 hours. Rapid 4-Hour solution can be rinsed after about 2 hours for a light glow, 3 hours for medium bronze, or 4 hours for deeper color.

Use warm water only, avoid soap if possible, skip scrubbing tools, and gently pat your skin dry. If you chose a bronzer solution, the cosmetic bronzer rinsing off is normal.

It is best to wait until after your first rinse before heavy sweating or intense exercise. Sweat during development can affect how evenly the tan sets.

After your first rinse, swimming is possible, but frequent exposure to chlorine or salt water may cause the tan to fade faster.

Yes, after your first rinse. Use a sharp razor and light pressure, because shaving can gently exfoliate the skin and may shorten the life of your tan.

Long hot showers or baths can speed up fading. Warm, shorter showers are usually better for maintaining your spray tan.

Avoid harsh scrubs, exfoliating acids, strong detergents, heavy oils, and products that aggressively remove dead skin cells. Spray tan-friendly cleansers and moisturizers are best.

Moisturize daily, use gentle cleansers, avoid aggressive exfoliation, limit long hot showers, and use tan-friendly aftercare products such as Shower Glow and Skin Glow when appropriate.

Most brides schedule their final spray tan 2–3 days before the wedding. This allows the color to fully develop and settle before photos and the event.

Scheduling 1–2 days before travel works well for most vacations. Remember that a spray tan does not provide sun protection, so sunscreen is still essential.

Sometimes, yes. The best timing depends on your goal, current color, and event schedule. We can help you decide whether one appointment or a planned sequence makes sense.

Absolutely. Professional spray tanning is popular with men and women for vacations, weddings, fitness competitions, photos, and everyday confidence.

Many clients with sensitive skin receive spray tans comfortably, but everyone is different. If you have known sensitivities, allergies, or dermatologic conditions, ask your healthcare provider before booking.

Many expectant mothers consider spray tanning as an alternative to sunbathing, but every pregnancy is different. We recommend checking with your obstetrician or healthcare provider first.

A spray tan will not remove scars or stretch marks, but it may reduce contrast between lighter areas and surrounding skin for some clients.

Yes. Sunscreen is strongly recommended when outdoors. Your spray tan is cosmetic color only and does not protect against UV radiation.

Hands and feet are washed more often and experience more friction. Barrier cream helps soften color on these dry areas, but faster fading there is common.

Often, yes. Facial color can fade sooner because we cleanse, exfoliate, and apply skincare to the face more frequently than the rest of the body.

If your tan is still developing, heavy rain before your first rinse may affect results. After your first rinse, normal rain exposure will not remove the tan.

Many clients schedule every 7–10 days to maintain steady color, while others book only before events, vacations, or photos. We can help you choose a schedule that fits your goals.
