Spray tan? Or not to?

So-- the wedding is in 20 days! WOoo!! Im so pumped! I was curious about spray tanning... So I did a trial-- and it came out great! It rubbed off a little the next day- but that was basically it.
But NOW that Im highly considering doing it for the wedding.. Im getting nervous that its gunna rub off under my arm pits or something!!
IDK what to do!! Should I go through with it? Im a nervous nellie!
TIA!!!

I've done the spray tan before & found that it smells funny on your skin. I also found that between my toes and hands I noticed a little discoloring....

Yet I love the spray tan bc within hours you have such a great looking tan.

There is also airbrush tanning out there that I hear is even better than the spray tan but i think a little more expensive.

Good luck with whatever you choose!

I think it would be fine to do the spray tan as long as you sprayed 2 days before so it doesn't stain the dress. I would also spend the extra money for airbrushing and make sure you exfoliate your whole body before you go.

I'm a huge fan of spray tans! I did it for my shower and wedding and was so happy I did it !

I recommend going somewhere very reputable though--I got to Brazil Bronze in Soho, normally $60 a tan but you can get coupons for $25-$30 per tan.

Just did a spray tan in Mystic self tanner and it wasn't very good. I would suggest going with someone's recommendation if you decide on doing a spray tan. I still might consider it, just not the Mystic!

i did an airbrush tan for my sisters wedding and it looked amazing. they even used a makeup sponge to make sure it was even and no weird marks.

def go at least 2 days before so you can shower off the excess. you'll be fine

think 'pre-wedding glow'

I didnt have a problem at all. In fact everyone couldnt believe it was a spary tan. I loved it. I went to BeachBum Tanning. I also got sprayed on Thurs. Fri was Reahearsal Wedding was Sat so it didnt rub off at all on my dress. Oh & btw since its natural it washes right out.

Oh & also they took a little powder & brush to make sure there were no drips or anything to look funny.
