What is spray tanning? Why does it work?

spray tanning involves applying an active ingredient, dihydroxyacetone or DHA,to your skin using a specialist low pressure spraying machine.

DHA is a colourless sugar, it interacts with the proteins & amino acids in the outer layer of your skin to produce a golden brown colour.

You will be sprayed with a lightly coloured solution of DHA, but the actual tan takes around 8 hours to develop & the lighty coloured solution will wash off when showering.

Is it safe?

YES,it is MUCH safer than exposing your skin to the sun's rays, but you still get a tanned look. DHA has been approved by the FDA for use in the personal care industry for over 30 years. No adverse affects have been reported other than minor skin irritations on allergic people. Allergic reactions are extremely rare & if you have experienced allergic reactions to self-tanning or other beauty products please arrange a skin patch test.

Remember, with a sunless tan - there's NO risk of sunburn, peeling, sunstroke or sun-related skin diseases.

How long does my sunless tan last?

your tan will last aprox 5 to 7 days depending on your daily skin care regime & lifestyle. A sunless tan fades just like a tan from the sun, as your skin sheds dead cells, your tan will fade. so the key is to moisturise.
