CUSTOM AIRBRUSH TANS
NOT YOUR MAMA'S SUN TAN
At SUMMERGOLD, we care about you & your skin health, which is why we ONLY offer UV-free sunless airbrush tanning (no tanning beds here, folks!).
At your airbrush tan appointment, your airbrush tan artist will work with you to pick a custom solution that works best with your skin tone & desired tan shade. Our airbrush tans are applied by hand to ensure a detailed, gorgeous glow!
Airbrush tans last around 7-10 days & appointments only take around ~20 minutes. Proper preparation (like exfoliating) and after-care is very important for a long-lasting tan, so please read the prep/aftercare instructions and FAQ below.
If you are doing an airbrush tan for an event, we recommend doing your tan appointment 1-3 days before the event. We highly recommend doing a trial tan (at least 2 weeks before) to make sure you have the perfect bronze for your event! We also offer special airbrush tan packages for brides.

AIRBRUSH TAN PREP
1-2 DAYS BEFORE
Handle all other beauty appointments - sugaring/waxing, mani/pedi, lashes, etc.
​
Avoid using retinol, Dove soap, bar soaps, and mineral oils.
​
Exfoliate! This is the BEST thing you can do to make your tan last long & fade evenly. Exfoliating mitts are our favorite way to prepare for an airbrush tan (sold in store for $8.99).
DAY OF
Come to your appointment with no products on - skip the makeup, lotion, deodorant, & perfume to prevent creating a barrier on your skin. Avoid shaving the day of your appointment - razor moisture strips can create a barrier.
​
Wear or bring dark, loose fitting clothing to wear afterwards (sweats & t-shirts are PERFECT!). If rain is in the forecast, bring an umbrella.
POST-TAN TLC
IMPORTANT: Your airbrush tan results are highly dependent on how well you take care of your tan. You'll be given a rinse time & full instructions at your appointment, but it's crucial to use spray tan-friendly products & follow instructions carefully.
Avoid sweating, showering, etc. until your tan solution is ready to be rinsed off (you'll be given a rinse time at your appointment).
Gold Rush (Rapid) = Rinse 2-6 hours after appointment - this tan MUST be rinsed after 6 hours to prevent skin from drying.
L.A. Gold = Rinse 8-12 hours after appointment.
The O.G. = Rinse 12-24 hours after appointment.
​
During your first rinse, take a warm water rinse with NO products to rinse off the cosmetic bronzer - you can use body wash on pits & crevices in the meantime. Once it's been 24 hours after your appointment, you can use body wash as normal. We recommend Norvell Post-Tan Body Wash and sell full & travel sizes at the studio.
​
After your rinse, moisturize thoroughly with lotion (Hempz is our favorite - also sold in our studio). Apply lotion daily to make your tan look its best!
​
If you want to extend or touch-up your tan, use our Custom Touch-Up spray around day 3-4!
​
Avoid Dove soap, mineral oil (like baby oil), rubbing & scrubbing (exfoliating) your skin until you're ready to say goodbye to your tan, around day 7-10.
Please call the studio (219-513-9131) within 48 hours of your appointment if you experience any issues with your airbrush tan so we can help assist you. Because your tan develops after you leave our studio, we rely on our amazing clients for any feedback. Thank you!
