How should I prepare for my airbrush tan?
For the best results, before your session, shower, shave and exfoliate to make your skin an even canvas. Make sure your skin is free of deodorant, lotion, perfume, cologne, gels, moisturizers or any product that could create a barrier on the skin.
What should I wear to my appointment?
Wear dark, loose-fitting clothes such as an over-sized T-shirt and yoga pants or a cotton maxi dress with flip-flops. No elastic waistbands, jeans, training shoes or socks. We recommend for women to go bra-less for a couple of hours until completely dry.
What will I wear during my appointment?
Our professional, all-female tan-artistes are comfortable with whatever you wish to wear and will treat your session with confidentiality. We do require that men wear underwear. Women can wear underwear, a bikini, go topless or nude. Disposables undergarments are provided for men and women.
How long should I wait before showering?
To give the formula enough time to fully dry, it is recommended to wait a minimum of 8-12 hours before showering. Showering sooner may diminish the intensity of your tan. The longer you wait, the better the results you’ll achieve.
Is it an unpleasant smell?
There are no undesirable odours like many of the ingredients found in sunless tanning products. A sweet, modest aroma is detectable and will wash off after your first shower after the session.
Will my tan turn orange?
No. Many self-tanners on the market are carrot-based which often results in the orange colour that self-tanners have their bad reputation for. Infinity Sun’s formula uses DHA that is a derivative of sugar that reacts with the protein found in the cells on the surface layer of your skin. This interaction is unique to each person and produces a natural look based on how you would naturally tan.
Can I work out after my spray tan session?
We recommend that you do not get wet or sweat for at least 10-12 hours after your spray tan session. It is fine to work out after your first shower vigorous sweating will affect how long your tan lasts and how it fades.
How long will my tan last?
Depending on how well you prepare and how well you take care of your spray tan afterwards and the rate of cell turnover that your body naturally experiences, you can expect your tan to last anywhere from 7-10 days.
- An Infinity Sun tan will last 7-10 days depending on:
- How much time you spend in the shower
- What products you use on your skin and hair
- How often you exercise and sweat
- How fast your skin naturally exfoliates
What if I have fair skin that has never been able to tan?
This is exactly why the spray tanning process was designed in the first place; for people who are not usually able to develop a tan by any other method. Infinity Sun’s airbrush tan gives those who don’t tan easily as well as those who do tan easily a fantastic sun-kissed colour.
Does the tan fade?
Just like an ordinary tan achieved through sunbathing, your spray tan will fade. The reason is simple. Everyday, millions of dead skin cells are sloughed off or worn away. In fact, every 35-45 days you have an entirely new outer skin layer! This is why your tan will eventually fade. There are things you can do to help increase the duration of your tan like moisturizing every single day, morning and night, using alcohol-free moisturizers and staying well hydrated.
Does an airbrush tan provide SPF protection?
Airbrush tans do not provide any protection from the sun so you should apply sunscreen accordingly.
