Let me answer some of my most-asked questions.
Sunless is a natural glow without the damage.
Why sunless tanning?
It is the only safe way to tan.
Sunless tanning reduces your risk of premature aging, wrinkles, and Melanoma, because you’re not exposed to harmful UV rays.
It is an instant, natural-looking tan.
Gone are the days of orange-tinted sunless tans! Sunless tanning offers an instant natural tan by “browning” the skin to the outermost layer of the skin, unlike UV tanning which penetrates layers of the skin causing damage.
You just feel better.
Trust me…you just feel better after having one! Your confidence is boosted. Imperfections are hidden. Most importantly, you can feel good about choosing a safe option for your glow. The feeling is indescribable until you’ve experienced it.
Sunless FAQ’s
What is spray tanning?
Our luxury spray tan is done completely by hand, ensuring each client gets customized bronzing from head to toe. The tanning application takes 5 minutes to apply followed by 5 minutes of drying time.
How does spray tanning work?
Spray tanning temporarily colors the skin. The active ingredient that creates the tanned effect is DHA (Dihydroxyacdetone). DHA is derived from sugar cane or beet root. This ingredient interacts with the proteins and amino acids found in the top layer of the skin to create the desired tanned color. DHA is the primary ingredient found in all tanning products
What should I wear to my appointment?
Wear loose, dark clothing. Tight clothing can leave marks in your fresh tan. It’s best to wear slippers or thongs. If it rains, try to cover up with long sleeves and loose pants and bring an umbrella!
How long does an appointment take?
Your spray tan will take about 1 5 minutes but we don’t like to rush. Please allow 30 minutes for your appointment.
How long will my spray tan last?
Our spray tans last 7-14 days. You will be given information how to best make your tan last and care for your skin.
Can people of color spray tan?
YES! absolutely. I carry several shades to enhance melanin and hide any look of skin imperfections leaving your skin glowing!
Can I choose my own shade?
Yes, you can choose a shade from light to dark. We custom blend a color just for you and let you know how long to leave it on.
How old do I need to be to have a spray tan?
While there are no legal minimum age restrictions for spray tanning, our company policy does not permit anyone under the age of 16 to have a spray tan without a parent or legal guardian present to directly supervise.
Will I look orange?
Nope. The advanced technology currently used in our spray tanning solutions is designed to ensure a natural, bronze tan.
Will swimming affect my tan?
Swimming in chlorinated water or salt water can fade your spray tan, causing possible streaking, and will diminish the length of your tan. Normal activities such as bathing, showering or physical activities will not affect the quality of your tan, however long showers in hot water should be avoided.
Will the cosmetic bronzer stain my clothing?
The cosmetic bronzer is used as a guide for the tanning technician to see where the tan has been applied. It does not stain and will wash out in water, however very light-colored clothing and undergarments can be affected depending on material. We advise wearing darker colors and avoid silk/satin fabrics.
Should I book a trial tan?
We highly recommend that if you are a bride or tanning for an upcoming event you book a trial 2-4 weeks before to try out the tan and make any corrections if needed 2 days before the event. We recommend that you do NOT book the day before your event, because you may not achieve your desired tanning goal.
Do we offer competition tanning?
YES! Please text or email Torey for a consultation 317-426-8117 , hello@indianaspraytans.com
