What solutions do you use? What systm do you have?

I have two different solutions from Sunmist, and have been tanning folks since January 2009. Not one has ever turned orange or even hinted at orange. The thing that excited everyone (including me) so much is how totally natural the tans look, that is what has grown my business so quickly. May was my best month yet, I brought home over $6200.00 Airbrush Mobile Tanning is my dream job!!! April and May I made over $5000.00 each month and the three months before that weren't as high, but consistantly better each week! My suggestion is, if you find the solution that works for you & your clients stick with it and grow your reputation.

Which 2 solutions do you use from Sunmist, if you don't mind me asking? Will they send samples? (Sorry if I have already asked this)

Do you have to use the pH Balance with this?

Sunmist only offers two solutions, Naturale & Bronzer Plus. Between the two they will provide all the natural looking color your clients desire. They offer a sample kit that includes both solutions. You don't have to use a pH Optimizer, but it's a nice personal touch. I haven't noticed any difference in the color result, only a difference in how fabulous the skins feels afterwards.

Thanks for the info. I will give them a try......I am glad that the pH balance is not a must....I don't kow why it is with the Amber Sun.....but it is......I can tell on some, if I don't spray it.......and the place I purchased it from also said that it is very important to remember to do that...

Anyways, thank you again....Amy

BTW, after I spray my hubby.........it looks like some spots, on the skin, have "black" or dark brown spots....like inside his pores....especially on the chest area......what is this from? It doesn't come off unless he scrubs it and still some is there

Kinda weird.....u think I am spraying to much solution on these areas that look like this?

That would be the color guide from the solution I believe! It happens to me a lot

I agree here...in the UK we don't (or a vary small percentage maybe) use PH treatments prior to a spray tan application without any problems whatsoever.

Maybe this is due to the fact we have a much cooler climate and therefore sweating is not a problem here.

Very interesting to find out how different countries do things ;0))

The "dots" I am referring to happen to you also, when you spray clients? I am just making sure this answer goes with my above question about making dark apots.....like build-up in the pores
