What to do when a client suffers from eczema?
We have had a few franchises bring up issues tanning clients with eczema because their tans were coming out patchy, here are some tips on how to avoid this:
Read MoreThe SunnaTan difference
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. Encourage your clients to always ask to see the ingredient list.
Read MoreHow sunless tanning works – the basics
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.
Read MoreSunnaTan preservative information
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.
Read MoreEczema/acne/psoriasis etc
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.
Read MoreVitiligo, Hands & Feet?
Depending on the client the outcome is always different. Some people with vitiligo find self-tanning darkens their non-pigmented (white) areas and helps blend the darker areas into an even tan. As an airbrush artist, you must be careful to mostly tan the whiter areas in order to even your client’s vitiligo areas.
Read MoreReactions/breaking out/rashes
The biggest chance of having a skin reaction occur is when a client has just had a shower and exfoliated vigorously, or if the skin is broken.
Read MoreHow do I remove my SunnaTan?
It’s difficult to remove a fresh SunnaTan. The tan will naturally fade in a couple of days, otherwise you can advise your client to soak in Epsom salts and very gently exfoliate the skin.
Read MoreIs getting an SunnaTan before my vacation a good idea?
Absolutely! Your clients will love having a beautiful golden glow prior to stepping on the beach or wherever their adventures take them.
Read MoreWaxing/ Shaving/ Pedi’s/ Mani’s/ Hair/ Makeup/ Lash Extensions
Waxing and shaving should be done the day before they tan, not the same day. (If they arrive freshly waxed or shaved, makes sure you tone the skin prior to tanning them). Both of these hair removal methods are a form of exfoliation.
Read MoreWearing gloves after a tan
If your client is in a profession where they must wear gloves, and especially following the few days after a tan, make sure they’re aware of sweating inside their gloves as this will make the tan rub off on the hands quicker.
Read MoreWedding dress
Before a bride gets her SunnaTan, it’s crucial that she showers at least once, maybe twice before putting her dress on, so that there’s no residual bronzer left on the skin.
Read MoreImperfections after your tan
Your clients may or may not notice slight imperfections after their tan. Imperfections can vary from tan to tan and are generally unnoticeable.
Read MoreCan you cover up tan lines?
Depending on the severity of the tan lines, getting an SunnaTan can definitely help blend them. Simply choose a colour that is similar to your client’s existing tan. Tan the body 1-2 times like you normally would.
Read MoreI got a sunburn and I am starting to peel, can I get an airbrush tan?
No. When a client’s skin is peeling, it’s unknown for how long and how many layers will peel off, leaving a very uneven area to work with.
Read MoreWill the tan affect my tattoo?
Advise your clients to wait 1-2 weeks after getting a tattoo before getting a tan, unless you completely cover it.
Read MoreHow old do you have to be to get tanned?
Age of consent is required with a consent form. For clients 12 years and younger, their parent or guardian signs the consent form.
Read MoreWill I turn orange?
No. At OrganicTan we pride ourselves in a product that won't turn your clients orange.
Read MoreWill the color rub off or stain my clothes or sheets?
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.
Read MoreI am pregnant and breastfeeding. Can I get a tan?
Our solution is made of organic ingredients that are not harmful to your client, their unborn child, or their breast milk.
