Sunless Tanning FAQ

Please reach us at support@sugarbarecr.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

What is an airbrush/spray tan and what can I expect during my service?

Fortunately, there are safer alternatives to tanning beds. Most dermatologists consider spray and airbrush tanning as safe as applying makeup.

The active ingredient for sunless tanning, dihydroxyacetone (DHA), is derived from sugar cane and/or sugar beets, which reacts with the skin’s amino acids to produce color. This color develops three to four hours after application, deepens over the next 24 hours, and lasts on average 6-8 days. A session usually takes 30 minutes or less and is performed with a handheld spray unit. Clients undress to their level of comfort; bottoms are required. It is recommended to wear old or dark bathing suits or underwear. Disposable undergarments are also available. There is bronzer in the solution for immediate color and may transfer onto your clothing or sheets. It is water-based and should easily wash out of fabrics.

If you are thinking about having a spray-tan before a wedding or big event, it is recommended to tan 2-3 days before.

If you are pregnant or nursing, consult with your physician before this service.

What do I need to do prior to my appointment?

- Exfoliate your skin at least 12-18 hour before your spray tan. This allows the skin to naturally moisturize itself and removes the build up of dead skin cells.

- Do not use bar soaps, lotions, oils, deodorant, and makeup the day of your appointment. These products can act as a barrier to the tanning ingredients.

- Shower at least 4 hours before your appointment so the open pores from the shower have time to close up to prevent a "speckled" look.

- Bring dark, loose fitting clothes to your appointment to change in afterwards.

What should I do after my service to care for my spray tan?

- Wait to get wet (shower/swim/sweat) a minimum of 6-8 hours. If you shower or bathe before 6 hours, the DHA will not react with your skin proteins and you will have a much lighter tan. Waiting longer will not make your tan darker or last longer. When you do first shower, you may notice the bronzer washing off. Your actual tan will continue to develop over 24 hours after your appointment.

- Avoid exfoliation the first few days of the tan.

- Apply a moisturizer twice daily.

- Pat dry when getting out of the shower/bath, try not to rub or scrub with your towel.

-You’ll still need to wear sunscreen, as airbrush tanning does not provide protection from the sun.
