This is a process where a specially made airbrush atomizes the spray into a cooling vapor into the skin ensuring an even application. Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) causes a chemical reaction with the amino acids on the outermost top layer of skin to produce a bronzed tan – much like what the sun does but without UVA and UVB damage to the skin. With absolutely no sun exposure at all, the tan usually lasts between 4 – 10 days. The way the tan fades and the length of time it lasts is dependent on how each person naturally loses his or her skin. Regular moisturizing helps to prolong the duration of the tan.
Spray tanning is considered a better alternative to direct tanning in the sun or on a sun bed. While some people get allergies and break into red spots, this appears in only a small percentage of people who are subjected to airbrush tanning. A tingling sensation will be felt if there are ingredients that increase the blood flow. It is not necessarily bad; it just creates an uncomfortable feeling. Aromatherapy is sometimes used to calm or invigorate the senses.
