What is airbrush tanning?
Tanning occurs when the skin produces pigment to protect itself from UV rays. In airbrush tanning, the tanning solution is applied by a technician using a compressor and airbrush. Airbrush tanning solutions contain an active ingredient, DHA, that reacts with the outer layer of skin, producing a bronzing effect. It must be emphasized that the pigments resulting from an airbrush tan DO NOT provide UV protection. The maximum generation of color is reached within about 12 hours, so the color will continue to darken after the initial application. Airbrush tanning solutions also typically have a normal bronzer that provides an immediate tan effect and helps the operator to distinguish areas of the skin that are applied and unapplied. Most of this added bronzer will come off in the first shower/bath after application. 

How long will an airbrush tan last? Once per week or within a 4-10 day period from the prior application.

How long does it take to apply? A single application will take approximately 12-15 minutes. Allow 10 minutes drying time, for a total airbrush session of about 25 minutes.

What should I do to prepare for an airbrush tanning session? On the night prior to, or on the morning of your airbrush tanning session, use an exfoliant like Ivory or Dial bar soap. Lotions and make-up may act as a barrier to prevent the tanning solution from reaching and interacting with the skin. In general, the skin should be clean and free from applied products.

What should I wear to an airbrush tanning session? Wear loose fitting clothing to your tanning appointment. Allow 10 minutes drying time after your session before dressing.

How soon can I shower after an airbrush tan? Allow 10-12 hours after your tanning session before showering. Ideally, the DHA application needs about 12 hours to reach its peak.

How do I maintain my airbrush tan? Apply moisturizer morning and evening after your first post-tan shower. Moisturize daily thereafter. Hydrated skin is essential in maintaining a longer lasting tan.
