Frequently Asked Questions
Why Tanfusion?
We use Bare Organic tanning solutions, ensuring a natural, safe, and streak-free tan that’s gentle on your skin. Their active ingredient is derived from sugar, which sets us apart from other tanning products on the market. Other products often use beets, carrots, or cocoa which can result in orange or grey undertones. Bare's sugar-based formula works on our skin through an oxidization process. Think of an apple: an apple turns brown as it is exposed to air. The same happens with your our Organic Tan. The longer you allow the solution to "marinate," the deeper the tan: without any orange undertones.
What is mobile spray tan, How does it work?
A mobile spray tan is a convenient service where a professional spray tanning technician comes to your location with all the necessary equipment, including a portable spray tanning tent and professional airbrush tools. This service allows you to enjoy a beautiful tan without leaving the comfort of your home or hotel, making it ideal for a special event, travelers or people with busy schedules.
How long will my tan last?
This depends on several factors including your skin type, physical activity and aftercare. Your tan should last minimum of a week, and has the potential to last as long as two weeks.
Do i need to worry about orange tones or streaks from my tan?
Absolutely not. We use a sugar-based solution to prevent any orange undertones. Other solutions on the market are derived from beet or beta-carotene (carrot extracts) creating an orange undertone and a funny scent. Our Tan is unscented and will give you a golden-brown colour. In addition, our airbrush technicians are highly qualified and trained to avoid any streaks or unevenness.
What is the difference between the standard and the express solution?
The only difference is shower time. Both solutions have the ability to be as light or as dark as you desire, and the longevity of your tan is the same. With the Express Tan, it’s important to note that you will look quite a bit lighter after you shower, the color will develop as time goes by. With the Express Tan, we recommend waiting 2-4 hours before showering. With the Standard Tan, we recommend waiting 6-8 hours before showering.
Do you customize the solution?
Yes, we customize the solution based on your unique skin tone, and the shade of tan you desire. We will contour and highlight your natural lines, creating a slimming effect.
Will i smell after my tan?
There is a subtle scent from the solution immediately after application. Our Tan Solution doesn’t have an unpleasant after scent. You can go back to work without being smelly.
I am fair skinned, will my tan still look natural?
Yes. We customize the solution to suit your skin tone. If it’s your first time tanning, we suggest selecting a lighter shade.
What should i wear to my appointment?
It’s best to wear dark loose clothing, and thongs to your appointment. There is a cosmetic bronzer in the solution and it can rub off on clothing. It washes out of most materials, but it’s better to be on the safe side.
What do i wear during my treatment?
Women please feel free to wear whatever your comfortable in during your appointment (as little as you please), you can wear underwear, a disposable thong or go nude. Just keep unwanted tan lines in mind. (We have disposable thongs as well). Men, we ask that you wear boxers, briefs or swim trunks during your appointment.
How long before i can wear white?
We recommend showering 3 times before putting on anything white colored, especially if you’re planning on sweating or being in the water. (White swim suit) If some you do have some color that transfers in white clothing, it’s easily removed in the wash.
Why does my face tan fade faster?
This is due to several reasons. First, facial skin is thinner than skin found on other parts of the body. The face is also more exposed to the environment and endures more frequent washing. In addition, makeup, anti-aging creams, astringents, etc. tend to break down the tan more quickly.
Will a spray tan protect me from the sun?
Unfortunately, it does not, so please remember to wear SPF!
Is sunless tanning safe for pregnant or brestfeeding woman?
Yes! We frequently tan many mamas-to-be before their maternity photoshoots, baby showers, and babymoons. And you can definitely still get a spray tan while breastfeeding! We recommend wearing a strapless bra or something to cover your chest area during the application — even breast pads will work just fine.Although we source the safest ingredients available to formulate our products, the solution is not meant to be consumed, and we want to avoid any color rubbing off on your baby if you breastfeed before the tan has fully set. However, we always recommend checking with your doctor for added peace of mind.
