Spray Tan

SunnaTan’s unique solution and application process is what makes us different. There are many “organic” solutions on the market, but only one SunnaTan. Many spray tan solutions will claim to be natural and organic, but this is not the case

The active ingredient in sunless tanners is DHA (dihydroxy acetone). DHA is approved by the food and drug administration for use in sunless tanning products. DHA is naturally derived from sugar. It synthesizes with the skin’s proteins and amino acids in the outermost layer (epidermis) of the skin, working with your own natural pigments to produce a safe, natural looking tan. DHA reacts with the dead skin cells, therefore, as those skin cells slough off, so does your tan. Each person has a unique skin cell cycle, affected by numerous factors including, but not limited to, hormones, genetics, age, medications, the environment and products used topically on the skin. DHA was discovered 70 years ago. Since this time, there have been numerous studies to show that DHA applied topically to the skin has no reactions or adverse affects.

SunnaTan uses a three-ingredient, all-natural (paraben/toxin free) preservative called Geogard Ultra. It consists of: Glucono Delta-Lactone, Sodium Benzoate, and Calcium Gluconate.

As with any new product being introduced on the skin, there’s always a possibility that any skin condition could temporarily worsen. We cannot tell for sure whether this will happen or not, as everyone has individual skin types and issues. We’ve noticed that clients tend to find their skin condition improves with the use of SunnaTan airbrush tans and products. When you look at what’s in the SunnaTan solution, you will find that the ingredients are all designed to soothe and comfort the skin without irritation.

The biggest chance of having a skin reaction occur is when a client has just had a shower and exfoliated vigorously. Allergic reactions to natural ingredients can occur as well.

It’s difficult to remove a fresh SunnaTan. The tan will naturally fade in a couple of days, you can soak in Epsom salts and very gently exfoliate the skin.

Absolutely! You will love having a beautiful golden glow prior to stepping on the beach or wherever your adventures takes you.

Waxing and shaving should be done the day before they tan, not the same day. Both of these hair removal methods are a form of exfoliation. Waxing provides a deeper exfoliation and therefore cannot and should not be performed after the tan. It will literally remove the entire tan. you can shave, but we suggest waiting at least a day, and using a fresh new razor along with a non-chemical shaving lotion or cream, (our SunnaTan Coconut Oil works fantastic for shaving!). We also recommend our tanning extenders if you plan on shaving every day.

If your in a profession where they must wear gloves, and especially following the few days after a tan, be aware of sweating inside your gloves as this will make the tan rub off on the hands quicker

Make sure to shower at least once or twice before wearing your white dress to remove any residual bronzer. Some brides notice slight bronzer transfer where the dress's boning touches the skin, especially in warm or humid conditions. Plan accordingly for a flawless look.

our clients may or may not notice slight imperfections after their tan. Imperfections can vary from tan to tan and are generally unnoticeable. After application, the bronzer in the solution may shift, move, rub off in areas or collect in the creases of the skin, (around the neck, arms etc.). During the first 12 hours, slight imperfections may be more noticeable, (especially in fair skinned people). If you are concerned about noticeable imperfections the next day, 99% of the time, showering will blend these imperfections. If you haven’t showered yet, you can use a small bit of lotion to blend any uneven areas.

Yes, a SunnaTan spray tan can help blend tan lines, depending on their severity. It's a great way to achieve a more even skin tone.

No. when your skin is peeling, it’s unknown for how long and how many layers will peel off, leaving a very uneven area to work with. Getting an airbrush tan will only make the appearance of peeling skin look worse, not better.

wait 1-2 weeks after getting a tattoo before getting a tan, unless we completely cover it. but area wont be tanned.

Age of consent is required with a consent form. For clients 15 years and younger, their parent or guardian signs the consent form.

Absolutely! We welcome male clients at Lynx Beauty Lounge for spray tans.

No. SunnaTan prides themselves in a product that won't turn our clients orange. Spray tans have come a long way in the past few years, and our solution in particular is designed to give you a natural looking bronze tan without unflattering shades of orange

During the first 12 hours after application, the bronzer may slightly rub off on lighter clothing and sheets. If there’s any colour transference, the solution being natural sugar based, should wash out easily. If you are concerned about this happening, please wear dark clothing - it is best, and to avoid sleeping on white or lighter coloured sheets. If you do experience any staining, please refer to a professional cleaner or dry cleaner for assistance.

SunnaTan solution is made of organic ingredients that are not harmful to you, or your unborn child, or your breast milk. However, we recommend that you take a look at the ingredient list and consult with your doctor and then we can discuss getting a spray tan.
