Spray Tan

Sunless Spray Tanning

A spray tan is a great way to get a perfect looking tan instantly. As with other sunless tanning methods the active ingredient with spray tanning is dihydroxyacetone, or DHA. DHA is a non-toxic colorless sugar which gives us the tan color. Typically a spray tan can last up to 5 or 7 days, after which it begins to fade as the skin is naturally sloughed off.

Airbrush tanning, spray tan booths, and aerosol tanning are three ways to enjoy spray tanning. However, those who enjoy sunless tanning at home typically use airbrush tanning or aerosol tanning such as spray-tan-in-a-can.

For those new at spray tanning, purchasing an airbrush tanning system for the home may be a little steep. Instead aerosol tanning sprays are available for those who are new to spray tanning. These sprays are an effective way to introduce yourself to spray tanning, and very effective for your first spray tan.
