are spray tanning solutions improving? - tanTALK

This is my question. In the last two years has anyone seen any major improvements to the solutions they have been using? If so what are you seeing as the differences?
Color? longevity? smell? etc. Also in what brands have you noticed the change?

I have not yet scene any great improvements. Very minimal but I'm sure that will change soon. But then again its been 3-4 yrs with slow success. I guess we will just have to wait and see.

there have been great strides in the area of smell. Where once, the customer smelled of the solution for hours, they now only smell bad for a few minutes.

The color varies as to manufacturer. Each makes a solution that is light, medium or dark. Some solutions do not contain any bronzers and are therefore clear.

I have with the Australian product Liquid Sun! It is so natural looking its ridiculous and it comes in 3 colour levels (like most). One of the key differences with this product is that its 99% natural- no chemicals YAY! It contains a whole bunch of essential oils so it has a light citrus scent when sprayed on the skin. I am moving to LA in March and going to take it with me so hopefully I can convince a salon there to use it on me haha!

Oh I forgot to add that there Rand D into spray tanning is unbelieveable. They are currently working on a new product that lasts for 3 months!! However it has been in development for 2 years and won't released it until it can produce a brilliant result using all natural ingredients.

I think they have improved as far as being sticky and definitly the smell has improved, I use CalTan, but just got some Breeze #9 Dark, what a diffence in color & smell, I spray a lady this morning with the new one, can't wait to see what she thinks, the color was a golden brown and NO ashy overtones .

I have tried several solutions. Most of them have a fault or two. The most recent one I have been using is Liquid Assets. It's an 8% or 10% and out of all the samples I have tried, this is the most natural tan color. I am very pale and have had a hard time finding one that doesn't fade into a different color or one that is too dark for my complexion. Even some 8%s are too dark. Anyway, that's my 2 cents.
