Airbrush Tan
Airbrush tans typically last between 5 to 10 days, depending on skin care routines and your skin's natural shedding rate. The faster your skin cells turnover, the quicker your tan may fade. Following a good skin care regimen before and after sunless tanning can help extend the life of your tan.
For best results, we recommend getting your tan 1-3 days before your event. For vacations, aim for 1-2 days before, and for weddings or wearing white, 2-3 days prior is ideal.
The entire application process takes approximately 30 minutes from start to finish.

Vacation
Yes! Spray tanning before your vacation is a popular choice. You can achieve a beautiful bronzed look, and it won’t interfere with any natural tanning you may do while on vacation, as it only affects the top layer of your skin.
No. Spray tans do not offer any sun protection and cannot act as a base tan. They are entirely artificial and do not help you tan naturally underneath. Important: Always apply SPF over your spray tan to protect against sunburns!
It’s recommended to wait 24-48 hours after your spray tan before swimming. Chlorine and salt water can dry out your skin, leading to faster fading, so try to avoid prolonged exposure. Here are some tips:
- Rinse with Fresh Water: Before entering a pool or the ocean, rinse your body with fresh cold water to create a barrier on your skin.
- Use Waterproof Sunscreen: Choose a spray-tan-safe waterproof sunscreen, like SUNBUM or COOLA, to provide extra protection.
- Rinse Off After Swimming: Always rinse off chlorine or salt water as soon as you’re done to help preserve your tan.
Following these tips will help keep your tan looking fabulous for longer!
