Look into that airbrush tan. I never did it so I cant help you on that

I will be going tanning but I always go tanning. Try the spray tan if you really don't like tanning beds. I would try it a month before the wedding and make sure you like the way it looks. Then so it a day before the wedding.

I love airbrush. But not Hollywood tans booth style.

I am 100% doing this, but starting about 2 months before. Just a few times a month to get some color

I will be.

I mean its right after summer, so I should be bronzed...but I will to get rid of any lines.

I don't want to look orange or too dark either..just bronzed.

I am going to try to go to the beach as much as I can during the summer. If that doesn't work, I will prob get airbrushing.

Yup, I'll be tanning a few months prior to the weddng.

I have tried spray tan before and in all honestly, to me, it smells just like neutrogena spray tan you buy in the drugstore.....so if you don't mind putting it on your self, then I say use the 'at home' stuff......chepaer and lasts the same amount of time.

I personaly like the tanning beds myself

I am definately going to tan!! I don't know about some ppl but I tried the mystic tan and did NOT have good results!! My opinion is mb once 3 days before the wedding?? and once a week for 2 weeks before. And you will have ur makeup on which will add some color so don't worry you'll look great!!

I'll be airbrushed by Linda. She's a Vendor here. It's the best 50 bucks I ever spend on myself, and I've even worn white the day after, and it didn't rub off on my clothes. But when getting airbrushed, you have to wait atleast 12 hours after to shower. You'll be sticky, but my tan last for like 2 weeks. It'll also help with the honeymoon too. Who wants to show up ghost white? Anyway....I highly reccomend her.

Re: Did anyone or is anyone

I am... I'm afraid anything else will stain the dress so I'd rather do a little tanning. Plus, my FH is so fark and I'm sooo white. Ugh

Re: Did anyone or is anyone

I will be taning a few weeks before just to get rid of any lines and make sure I am even all over

Re: Did anyone or is anyone

Both FH and I are doing a trial w/ airbrush tanning in March. We're going to Sundara in NYC. They make you lie down and someone puts it on you. They color will appear a few hours later and you can't shower for 8 hrs. Apparently it lasts for almost 2 weeks and won't come off on clothes once you showered for the first time.

Tanning beds are very dangerous and they give you wrinkles!!
