What is Airbrushing
Airbrush tanning is a UV-free, sunless tanning method where a certified technician applies a professional tanning solution to your skin, giving you a flawless glow. Your tan will develop within 24 hours, leaving you with a beautiful, natural-looking color—without UV exposure.
We welcome ladies and young women ages 14 and up to experience our airbrush tanning services.
(At this time, we do not offer airbrush tanning for men.)
When should I schedule my appointment?
For the best results, I recommend scheduling your airbrush tanning appointment at least two days before your event.
For example, if your prom is on a Saturday, book your airbrush tan for Thursday. This allows the solution to fully develop over 24 hours and gives you time to take a soap shower after the waiting period.
Planning ahead ensures your glow is at its absolute best for your special day! ✨
8 Hour Solution & Rapid
Bronzite 8-Hour Solution – $50
- Requires an 8-hour wait before rinsing off the cosmetic bronzer.
- This does not mean your tan develops in 8 hours—all DHA-based tans take 24 hours to fully develop (including UV tanning bronzers with DHA).
Obsidian Dark Rapid Solution – $60
- Allows you to rinse off sooner:
- 2 hours – Light tan
- 4 hours – Medium tan
- 6 hours – Dark tan
- 8 hours – Deepest, darkest tan (Dark AF)
- Even with a quicker rinse, your tan will still take 24 hours to fully develop.
Both options give you a gorgeous, sun-kissed glow—just choose the timing that works best for you! ✨

Avoid tight or heavy clothing. Bring flip-flops to wear after, to avoid rub off

*Showering minutes before your appointment will throw off your skin's pH levels resulting in a blotchy tan.
*Wear an oversized top, so you don't have to put your bra back on. Sometimes your bra straps can leave strap marks making a tan line.

*During the time between your airbrush and your rinse time, take it easy. Just 'marinate' in your glow. Do NOT get wet. This means no doing dishes, tell your S/O or the kids to do them. Do NOT sweat, the gym can wait. This is your time to bask in your beauty!

*Did you get airbrushed later in the day and are sleeping in the solution? No worries, just wear loose-fitting dark pajama pants and a long-sleeved top. This is to avoid skin-to-skin contact that can produce darker spots in the crook of your arm or behind your knee.
Rinsing
After Your Airbrush
After Your Airbrush
Rinsing: This is a quick in and out of the shower with no soap. You are just rinsing the bronzer off, don't be alarmed when you see the bronzer going down the drain. Rinse until the water runs clear. Do Not rub your skin because the friction will rub off your tan.
For the 8 hour solution you can rinse (NO SOAP) 8 hours after your spray

For the 8 hour solution you can rinse (NO SOAP) 8 hours after your spray tan or the next morning, just a RINSE! For the Rapid solution, your rinse times will depend on the darkness you discussed with your technician (2 hours for a light tan, 3 hours for light med tan, 4 hours for a medium tan, 5 hours for a med dark tan, 6 hours for a dark tan, 7 for a real dark tan and 8 hours for a DARK AF TAN). DO NOT SLEEP IN A RAPID, IT HAS TO BE RINSED OFF!
*After your rinse, hop out of the shower and blot your skin dry. Again no rubbing because you are still in the developing phase.
*After rinsing and patting yourself dry, apply a spray tan-safe lotion (mineral oil-free lotions) all over. This protects the development of the tan during the first 24 hours.
Soap Shower
After Your Airbrush
Soap Shower
*24 hours after your spray tan, feel free to shower with soap. You may shave, but I suggest using a brand-new razor, an old one will exfoliate your tan, prematurely.
*Lotion up after your shower.
*Drink water to hydrate from the inside out.

*Don't use any poofs, or washcloths, or use scrubs until you want your tan gone. using these can lead to exfoliating your tan off too soon.

*Want your tan to last even longer? Purchase some XTan Sunless Mousse to extend it.
*Use XTan Sunless Remover to remove all the DHA away before your next Airbrush Appointment.
* Always wear sunscreen when out in the sun
*Use Mineral Oil Free Lotions during the life of your tan. All Natural, fragrance-free lotions are best. CeraVe non-scented is a great OTC moisturizer. We also carry some.
