FAQ
How long do spray tans last?
7-10 days depending on the person and aftercare. Check out our CARE page!
​
DO SPRAY TANS STAIN?
Spray tans are water-based and should not stain. They may come off onto fabrics before your first rinse off, however, any transfer is washable.
​
HOW LONG BEFORE AN EVENT SHOULD I BE SPRAY TANNED?
Ideally about 30 hours prior. Sooner the better! A spray tan should always last in your beauty routine.
​
DO SPRAY TANS CAUSE ACNE?
The short answer is no. Spray tans are water-based and therefore, widely non-pore-clogging.
​
CAN I SPRAY TAN PRIOR TO VACATION?
YES! Spray tanning before vacay is super popular. You can even form a natural tan underneath a spray tan because a spray tan only affects the top layer of the skin.
​
DO SPRAY TANS ACT AS A 'BASE TAN'?
No. Spray tans do not provide any sun protection and cannot act as a base tan. Spray tans DO NOT protect against sunburns, they are entirely artificial. Use SPF over your spray tan.
​
How do spray tans work?
Spray tans affect the top layer of dead skin cells/amino acids on the skin's surface. The DHA in the spray tan changes the colour of the top layer of skin through a harmless chemical reaction. DHA, the active ingredient in most UV-free tanning products is derived from sugar cane extract and other natural sources.
