Tanning/Airbrush

OK - so I do have some summer color lingering, but I know that by 11/5 it will be gone. Now, I do not want to be tan for my wedding, but I would like to have a little color. Should I go tanning once a week for the next 6 weeks just to maintain the little color I have now, or do I go with an airbrushed tan??

I went with the airbrush tanning the other day and it gave a nice base tan. I would say go in now and see what it looks like. The day you get it, before you can shower, you look really really tan but once you take a shower it fades some. I would ask the receptionist because I know there are 'levels' you can do. That's what I plan on doing :)

hey MB,
I've done both the Instand Tan from Hollywood Tans and the Mystic Tan. I liked both and disliked both....I would try it once to see how the color looks on you and if it rubs off in any places. Personally I think your best bet woyld be to go tanning once a week to maintain though.
Ahh soo close, how are the RSVP's?

I just got spray tanned here on wednesday to test it out before the wedding. I thought it came out great. I didn't want to look really tan, but it gave me a nice healthy glow. I can't go tanning because of some discoloration I started getting on my forehead this summer. When I get sun, it gets darker and I didnt want it to show up in pics.

Here is what the spray tan looked like 3 days later on Saturday -

I did airbrush tan 2 days before the wedding and it looked awesome except under my arms I had a perfect white circle. The makeup person airbrushed some makeup to even it out and it came off on my dress..not good..ahhaah..i had white circles and airbrush stuff on my dress..nice nice..

Did anyone have a problem with the tan coming off on their wedding dress. I was also thinking of doing the airbrush tanning for my wedding but I am worried about ruining my wedding dress.
