Sun Spritz™ FAQ
Q: Do you have to turn around in the booth?
A: No. Stationary spray jets are positioned 360° around the user.
Q: How safe is it?
A: Injury in the Sun Spritz™ System is very unlikely because there are no moving parts and you do
not need to turn around as you must do in most other units on the market. Because you are only in
the unit for a few seconds, you will not lose your balance, unlike spending over a minute with closed
eyes and posing in different positions which can cause unbalance, especially when there are moving
parts to contend with.
Q: Will my tan be natural looking?
A: Within seconds you will be misted from head to toe with an even, natural colored solution. You can
expect to see consistent color within hours.
Q: How long does it take?
A: The Sun Spritz™ unit takes only a few seconds due to the high-pressure atomizer valve spray
system, which means you are in and out in less time. Other units can take well over 60 seconds.
Q: Do I have to use barrier cream?
A: No. all other units use barrier cream to cover up fingernails, toenails, dry skin areas and any
other absorbent areas due to excessive staining of the skin. This can take up to 5 minutes per
session. It is important to note that any excess cream will cause white patches. Our experience has
shown that once the session is finished, it is advised to lightly massage the body all over to
penetrate the lotion further into the skin and even out any residue. It is then recommended to wash
the hands and feet to remove excess lotion, eliminating the use of barrier cream.
Q: Can I go swimming or shower after my tanning session in the Sun Spritz™ booth?
A: We recommend that you wait for at least 5 hours before swimming or showering. Chlorinated water from
swimming could possibly bleach the solution and possibly cause streaking. We have found that waiting
for the appropriate amount of time gives the DHA time to completely set. If you shower or swim too early,
it will diminish the intensity of your tan. When you do shower the initial tan created by the water-soluble
bronzer will wash off, but the DHA will remain intact and create a longer lasting tan.
Q: How long should I wait before I put my clothes back on after my session?
A: Once you have rubbed the solution in over your body and toweled dried, there is little chance that the
bronze will get on your clothes. If you are doing strenuous activities after your session, your perspiration
may cause the bronzer to transfer to your clothing. The bronzing solution is water-soluble and will wash
out.
Q: How many sessions will I need to achieve the color I want?
A: You will have some color after one session. It may take several sessions to achieve your preferred color.
Once your desired color has been achieved you will be able to maintain it by tanning every four to five
days.
Q: Can I tan in tanning equipment and in the sun if I tan in the Sun Spritz™ tanning booth?
A: Yes. In fact, customers have found that using UV rays with the Sun Spritz™ solution boosts their
overall color appearance. If you plan to tan in the Sun Spritz™ booth and in a tanning bed on the same
day it is recommended to use the UV tanning equipment first. It is very important to remember that the
Sun Spritz™ tan DOES NOT GIVE YOU ANY PROTECTION FROM UV RAYS.
Q: I have never been able to tan before because of my fair skin color. Will I see results in the
Sun Spritz™ tanning booth?
A: Yes. The Sun Spritz™ tanning booth now gives customers the option of achieving a tan without the use of
UV lamps or sunlight from outdoor activity.
Q: Should I wear clothing in the Sun Spritz™ tanning booth?
A: Most generally customers do not wear clothing of any kind. The room is completely private and it is
perfectly acceptable to tan in the nude. If you do opt to wear clothing such as a swimsuit, be aware that
whatever you are wearing may become stained. The bronzing solution is water-soluble and should wash out of
anything you wear, but the DHA application itself may cause permanent stains on clothing you wear inside the
booth itself.
Q: What will happen if the Sun Spritz™ solution gets in my eyes?
A: There is nothing in the solution that will harm your eyes. We do however recommend closing your eyes for
the few seconds that the misting process takes.
Q: Can I have an allergic reaction to the Sun Spritz™ tanning solution?
A: All the products contained in the Sun Spritz™ solution have proven to be safe for use on the skin.
However if you have had previous allergic reaction to self-tanning products or cosmetics we recommend a
"patch test". This consists of putting a small amount of the solution on a small area of skin to test for
any possible reaction.
Q: Should I hold my breath during the Sun Spritz™ tanning session?
A: We do recommend that you hold your breath during the misting process, which lasts only a few seconds. We
say this only because most customers would rather not breath in the mist even though there is nothing in
the solution that would cause you harm. If you have a history of asthma or other breathing difficulties we
recommend that you tan in the Sun Spritz™ tanning booth only after consulting with your physician.
Q: Do I need to cover my hair during the tanning session?
A: We recommend wearing a disposable shower cap (provided by the salon) to prohibit the solution from
getting in hair. The Sun Spritz™ solution will not harm hair, as it does not penetrate the hair
follicle.
Q: Will the Sun Spritz™ solution leave an unpleasant smell on my skin?
A: We have noticed that customers notice a smell on their skin right after tanning but is not usually
noticed by others around them.
Q: Will I be wet after my tanning session?
A: The application process consists of a very fine mist, After you step out of the booth, simply rub in
excess solution and towel dry. Toweling off wilt not cause the solution to streak. It is recommended to
wash hands thoroughly after your session.
Q: How can I enhance the tanning results from the Sun Spritz™?
A: We recommend exfoliating your body prior to your session. If you are not able to do the exfoliation
process it is recommended that you apply an approved moisturizer prior to application to rough areas of
your body such as knees or elbows. However after your session you should not apply any moisturizer or
lotion to your body for the initial "set-up" time of 5 hours. As with any tanning process, an approved
moisturizer will only enhance your tanning results.
