ABOUT

 

We use only the most prestige sunless products on the market. We use Norvell solutions and products which are organic,vegan, 100% nut and gluten free. Norvell is the leading manufacturer in the country but has also partnered with ABC on the new “Dancing with the Stars” Sunless Tanning Collection. Inquire with your Spray Tan Specialist.

Norvell products contain DHA (Dihydroxyacetone). DHA is the bronzing agent in most sunless tanners and also in bronzer tanning lotions.  When DHA is applied the skin; a dark brown tan forms in approximately 4-6hours and continues to darken for 16-18hours (?). The color of your sunless tan is completely INDIVIDUAL. Nothing is absolute when it comes to variations of skin types, coloration, and how long it will last or how dark you will get. Every skin type is different. The color you achieve is a perfect blend of your natural skin tone along with the reaction of DHA. The tan becomes water-resistant, however exposure to high levels of abrasive soaps, detergent filled body washes and chlorine is discouraged. Exposure to such factors will expedite the natural process of exfoliation which on average is 4-6 days.

Another important factor in achieving a sunless tan is the pH levels of the skin. pH is a measure of the acidity or basicity of the solution. An alkaline, or high pH in our skin, causes the DHA to become more orange, wheres a slightly acidic pH reduces this color problem turning more golden brown. Stage 28 offers a “pH Prep Spray” for an additional “add-on”. pH “Prep Spray” balances the acidity of your skin. If the skins acidity is too high the exfoliation will occur more rapidly.

Along with DHA, our solutions contain cosmetic bronzers. Cosmetic bronzers are instant bronzers. Similar to the effects of make-up, cosmetic bronzers are rusted to add instant color to the skin, evening out tones and hiding imperfections. Norvell solutions have water soluble cosmetic bronzers and will wash out of majority of fabrics. Its best to wear dark, loose fitting clothing.
