Thank you for choosing us for your custom spray tanning needs!
We use natural products derived from such botanicals as Brazilian Acai Berry which has unparalleled antioxidant levels and nutrient content. Our solution is water-based and infused with skin-nourishing vitamins E&C, ginseng, and anti-aging botanical rosemary.
By choosing Sweet Pea Waxing for all your spray tanning needs, you’re not only saving your skin from harmful UV rays, you’re also helping preserve it with nature’s own winning combination of skincare ingredients.
The key ingredient is FDA-approved Eco-Certified DHA which is a sugar-based formula derived from plant sources such as beet sugar and causes a natural tanning of the skin when applied.
Shower, shave, and exfoliate no less than 3 hours before our arrival. Please try not to shower right before we get there. This will prevent the tan from setting and developing fully. Avoid Dove & Aveeno products as they leave a film on the skin and contain PH balancers that react with spray tan solution resulting in a greenish hue. While it diminishes over time and washes away after the first shower, it’s best to avoid it.
Apply lotion no less than 3 hours prior to your sunless tanning appointment. If you apply lotion and it has not fully absorbed into your skin, it acts like a barrier to the sunless tanning solution. To get the best results, your skin must be clean and dry to absorb the solution evenly and effectively.
Ideally, if your appointment is in the evening, prepping in the morning is best. If your appointment is in the morning, the night before is best. For afternoon appointments use your best judgment.
Schedule other beauty appointments BEFORE your sunless tanning appointment. Waxing: 2-3 days prior, Facials (standard): 1-2 days, Chemical Peels, Microdermabrasion & Dermaplaning 2+ weeks prior, Mani & Pedi: 1+ day prior, Hair & Lashes: 1+ day prior (ok for the same day just before, not after).
Wear loose-fitting, dark clothing after your session.
Remain dry for a minimum of 8 hours for a regular solution & 1-4 hours with rapid, depending on desired darkness level.
Take short, warm showers using mild, unscented soap. While shaving use light touch.
Pat skin dry and moisturize with a mild lotion or tan extender. Hydrated skin accepts color more evenly. It is always best to apply lotion daily as a general skin care regimen.
Apply perfume to clothes and hair, avoiding skin contact.
