spray Tan anyone have one?

It all depends. I would definitely do an airbrush over a booth. The booth is cheaper but airbrush comes out much nicer. I used to go to Brazil Bronze in they city, but honestly I found that Beach Bum does a better job. I think 1 tan is about $60? You can usually buy a package though.

I've never had an issue with the smell of airbrush....sometimes the booth wouldn't smell amazing, but not overpowering. I'd say they last about a week, just make sure you moisturize daily and DO NOT rub with a towel when you get out of the shower, just air dry.

They'll spray whatever you want. I usually wear a dark bathing suit with the straps pulled down because I hate anyone seeing me naked!

Airbrush over booth def
$50 for airbrush
Lasts 7 days
Does smell like icky self tan lotion

While I have done it a few times for events. I admit I dont love it. No matter how many ive tried they all smell. No matter how you moisturize they do not fade evenly. You cant really shave your legs cause youll end up with stripes on your legs.
You also dont want to exfoliate after or sweat a lot.
And you have to go to someone you trust. My girl was out and i used her co worker. OMG she made me orange, way too dark, streaky and splotchy. I was mortified.
I went another time and while it turned out great it was hot on the train ride home i sweated the tan off lol literally
Go 2 days before your event.

Its not my first choice to be honest but its great when your white as a ghost and want some quick color.

Yes whole.body...

I highly, highly recommend the Rodan + Fields Tanning Foam.

It's a foam not a spray, so it goes on very evenly and the coverage is great. It also has a lighter smell to me than other ones that I have tried.

I am placing a bulk order on it today- it is $24

You can also combine it with the body micro-dermabrasian stick for $54 total.

Re: spray Tan anyone have one?

I've never had an airbrush but I've done a booth twice. The first was years ago at a Beach Bum and I swear it did nothing. I don't know what the problem was but I only got about one shady darker that my normal pale pale white. I went a second time Boca Tanning Club in Huntington and it came out great. No streaks, great color.

eta- I think the odor has to do with the reaction in your skin that makes the color. I tend to think it's unavoidable, I've had it with every self tanner I've tried.

I have had a woman come to my home. Mobile spray tan. She recently moved though so I haven't used anyone else on her team.

It's super fast and easy. She sets up a pop up tent in your house and is in and out in like 10 minutes.

It looks very natural- at least the product she uses does
How long it will last really depends- I got it before vacation once and went in the pool and ocean and that really killed it faster. They tell you that though.

Otherwise- lasts about a week.

Didn't really smell- maybe a little that first night but once you can shower the smell goes away

I paid $60 for a mobile tan- in her studio in St James it was $50

Yes, they do your entire body and face

It is way more precise than the booth sprays- she gets every nook and cranny and its very even.

And forget stuff you put on yourself at home- I can never reach my back, etc- it just makes a streaky mess

If you have something big- like a wedding, vacation etc- airbrush spray is the only way to go
