Why Airbrush Tan?


The National Cancer Institute warns against any type of tanning where the skin comes in contact with harmful UVA/UVB rays, but especially artificial tanning done in tanning beds. In fact, the NCI notes that women who use a tanning bed only once per month put themselves at a 55 percent higher risk of contraction malignant melanoma, the most deadly form of skin cancer. If you love the bronzed look of a tan, but aren't willing to sacrifice your health, airbrush tanning may be just what the doctor ordered. The spray tan solution is organic and derived from sugar cane or beets. It is applied to the top layer skin, therefore avoiding any deep penetration. It is safe, easy and with the latest scientific advances allows you to achieve a natural bronzed without the smell or orange hue of sunless tanning creams from the 80’s. If you're considering an airbrush tan, understanding how it works can help you feel more comfortable with the procedure.

What the heck is spray tanning?

You may have wondered how celebrities get that marvelous tan no matter whatever the season may be. The secret: airbrush tanning! Airbrush sunless tanning is one of the healthiest options to get a tan. You might walk into a salon pale-skinned, but come out with a gorgeous healthy glow...AND good for your conscience. Tanning actually takes place when your skin gets exposed to the sun. The reaction is the production of pigments (melanin) the skin to protect itself from the sun's UV rays.

In case of airbrush tanning, a compressor and airbrush tool are used to apply the tanning solution. The active ingredient in all tanning products on the market and in airbrush tanning solution is DHA, a sugar cane or beet extract. The bronzing effect is all natural and reacts to the epidermis layer of the skin. Airbrush tanning provides no any UV protection and last 6-10 days if properly care for.

Though you can get a tan done at airbrush tanning salons, it would be nice if you can get it done in the privacy of your own home. This is where mobile tanning comes in! Convenient, private and a spa treatment in your own home.
