About
Airbrush Tanning - What you need to know:

The Tanning Solution is not a dye. The active ingredient in the solution, DHA, is a sugar that interacts with the amino acids in the outer layers of your skin to produce a natural tan.

Your tan will fade gently just like a real suntan. As your skin naturally sloughs off old skin cells, your tan fades away.

Airbrush Tanning is safe and F.D.A approved for over 20 years.

Airbrush Tanning provides a golden brown color. Every skin type will tan, no matter how pale your complexion.

It lasts about 4-14 days. Hydration and Moisturizing the skin are both vital to your tans longevity.

There is no orange color. Your skin will tan its natural tanning color.

Our History:

I
began Airbrush Tanning nearly 6 years ago for another company. I soon understood the value of providing a safe and smart way to tan skin when I had a skin cancer scare of my own.
I have since realized the importance of this industry and have decided to provide my services to the entire Denver-Metro area. Its much easier for me to come to you – say after work or on the weekends and provide you with a wonderful experience in the comfort of your own home.
I have logged over 1,000 tans personally and have mastered body contouring, shading and customizing solutions to match client needs.
I have expertise in tanning the bodybuilding industry, as well as for special occasions such as weddings and vacations.
I am committed to providing a quality product and experience each time you join me.

Additional Questions and Answers
Why get an Airbrush Tan?
Airbrush Tanning delivers a smart, natural looking tan without the sun! Our highly effective formula is organic, fast acting and long lasting. Get a Tan before your next big event and all your friends will be asking, "Where did you get that great tan?" Airbrush Tanning, plain and simple, is the smart alternative exposure to the sun and UV rays – we all know the dangers associated with UV rays!

How long does the tan last?
It lasts about 4-14 days. Hydration and Moisturizing the skin are both vital to your tans longevity. I have extremely dry skin, and it lasts about 10 days for me. I can’t stress enough: use water and lotion, Colorado is too dry a climate to neglect the skin.

How long does it take to be airbrushed?
Application takes about 20 minutes.

How long before I can take a shower?
DHA needs any where from 6-12 hours to set up properly and react with the skin to give you the results that you desire. We generally recommend that you wait at least 8-12 hours before showering.

Does your product have any sunscreen?
No! Just because you look extremely tanned does not mean you are protected. Our solution does not have SPF in it. You can sunburn if you do not apply sunscreen over your UV Free Tan (after the recommended time). Besides sunscreen is a great moisturizer!

Should I moisturize my skin before or after I get sprayed?
You should be moisturizing your skin at least once per day with a high quality lotion. Lotions with no alcohol content are the best. This will slow the exfoliation rate thus extend the life of your tan.
You should not apply moisturizer directly before your session, apply at least 2-4 hours before, and avoid barrier lotions that contain coco or shea butter. These lotions could impede the penetration of the solution into the skin. Also do not apply deodorant, foundation makeup or oily products prior to your session.
You should not apply moisturizer for at least 8 hours after being sprayed; this could cause it to streak, we recommend after your first shower.

Will the swimming pool or hot-tub fade my tan faster?

Chlorine has a tendency to fade spray tan faster. Don’t forget to MOISTURIZE!!! Many swimming pools are using salt for filtration these days and will not affect your tan, but hot tubs will cause a tan to fade faster.

Why did the solution wash off in the shower?
Cosmetic bronzers are temporary bronzers that give you immediate color. The cosmetic bronzer allows us to see how the product is being applied. The real color is the result of the DHA reacting with the proteins in your skin. The real tan develops behind the cosmetic bronzers in 6-12 hours. It is the bronzers you will see washing off in the first shower, the lasting color is what is left behind.

Will it rub off on my clothes or bed sheets?
There is a very good chance of the cosmetic bronzers coming off on clothing and bed sheets. This should wash out very easily, however, we always recommend that the client wear darker colored older loose fitting clothes. There are some fabrics such as silk that this may not wash out of, so caution is always recommended.

Is Airbrush Tanning Safe, and can pregnant or nursing mothers get a Tan?
DHA has been used as a cosmetic ingredient in the United States since 1960 and no problems have ever been reported concerning DHA penetrating the skin, or causing problems during pregnancy.  DHA only penetrates the outermost layer of the skin.  In an effort to increase the rarity of a reaction, I have committed to only using an organic solution free of artificial preservatives and ingredients. However, if you are still concerned consult your physician first.

Can I spray tan and UV Tan in a tanning bed?
Absolutely! UV Free tanning looks great over a base tan and gives the customer better color than they have ever experienced, especially for people that tan redder normally. We recommend tanning in the bed the day before or the day after your airbrush tan. Just remember your airbrush tan will not protect you from being burnt.

What you need to know to extend your tan: The following products will lighten or make the sunless tan blotchy:
-AHA’s (Alpha Hydroxy Acids)
-BHA’s (Beta Hydroxy Acids-Salicylic Acid)
-Retin-A type products (Retin-A, Renovate, Tazorac, and Trefinoin)
-Toners containing Witch Hazel, Alcohol, Salicylic Acid
-Makeup remover cleaning products or oils used to clean away eye makeup
-Wax hair removal and Depilatory hair removal products …Nair, Veet, Neet etc.
-Pat dry after a shower; don’t rub dry.
