Spray on tan

I have never had a spray on tan before and was thinking of getting a light glow one for my wedding. I was wondering how long they usually last, and do they fade when they go away or like flake off in pieces? Also are they non comedogenic? Thanks!

I have had an airbrush tan several times. My sister got married on Saturday so I got my spray tan thursday night. It looked great for Saturday. It def fades slowly it doesn't flake off but honestly it only lasts a few days a week max.

Now I had to google non comedogenic......lolol and no it doesn't effect my skin at all, no breakouts nothing like that. I would def get one before your wedding to test out colors and how you like it.

I would recommend having a person spray you rather than the machines. I feel like it comes out much better even if it is a little Werid to have a stranger spraying your boobs. If it's a Saturday wedding I would do it weds or thurs to give yourself time in case it's too dark. I've never had any problems as far as breakouts, howver don't go in any pools or hot tubs, I got one for Vegas in pool season and my arms & legs were streaky after a few hours in the pool.

I would go to beach bum tanning and get a spray tan done by a professional. When I get it done I love it. It lasts for 4 days the most & when it fades it does fade in spots..what makes it last longer is not showering more than once a day & also use alcohol free soap. Most liquid soaps work best. When I get out of the shower I just pat myself dry with a towel. Good luck!!

beach bum definitely.

their aribrush tan (where someone does it for you) looks better at first than the mystic (the booth you go in by yourself). it's a 'richer' tan.

but i go mystic all the time, and mystic fades better than airbrush. i never have spots or flaking from mystic i just get lighter as the week goes on. but airbrush i had spots and flaking.

if you have time, try out both a few weeks apart. with mystic you have to be sure to follow the rules they tell you to!

Def Beach Bum! I've used them several times and def have a person spray you down. I have two skin tones... pasty and lobster. When I've done the spray tan at Beach Bum they have always been really knowledgeable about the most natural looking colors. Its also been very evenly applied. I have the skin of a 14 year old that breaks out very easily and the spray tan didnt bother my skin. Just make sure you exfoliate in the days prior to doing it. This will help. They often have 2fer deals so you can go do a practice run if you wanted.

i've had spray tans but personally I would be worried about it rubbing off on my dress.

I was worried about that too. I honestly like being white lol I don't really want a tan. I'm going to lather myself in sun screen all summer. I'm only doing a spray tan if I end up having any tan lines from summer. I just want to test one out before hand and see how it looks and if it breaks out my skin in case I end up needing it to cover up tan lines.
