Give me your best tanning method(salon spray tan, lotion, bottle spray)

I need one and a good one :)

So tell me the brand you just can't live without or method that works or ones to stay away from or anything else you do that give you that healthy looking glow!

Re: Give me your best tanning method(salon spray tan, lotion, bottle spray)

  • For special occasions, I always recommend airbrush tanning--that is where a person sprays you rather than a machine.  This method gives you the most even, precise tan IMO.

    I did a salon spray tan for my wedding, but I do them regularly so for me it was ok since I knew what to expect.

    Whatever you choose, be sure and try it out prior to the wedding.
  • I use st. tropez in a bottle and it has amazing reviews! You can google reviews/videos about it.
    :3
  • I like airbrush tanning. This way, the salon can mix a color specifically for you and you know you won't come out looking like Snooki!
  • As I have posted in numerous questions just like this before...as a person that has worked in the tanning industry for 6 years, I NEVER advise a bride to get a spray tan (that is where a machine does it) for her wedding. Too much can go wrong. Even the best, newest booth can have a malfunction in the middle of a session (I've seen it happen). I also do not recommend self tanners in a bottle or spray form, again, too much chance of it being splotchy.
    If you want to have a nice color for your wedding and do not want to actually tan in a UV bed, go with airbrush. The people in salons or spas that do this have been trained, tested, and know what they are doing. I really think you will see the best results and be the happiest with an airbrush tan.

  • another vote for an airbrush tan!

    I LOVE my l'oreal self tanning gel... but even though I've been using it for years I still make mistakes and can get streaky results! I'll probably use a self tanner for parties etc. leading up to the wedding but will get a professional airbrush tan a couple of days before the big day.
  • I recommend going tanning in a bed...it looks the best...I've tried the tanning lotions but they look fake so I'd definitely use a bed
