Need help.
I ve tried many solutions but not found the adequate one.
I m looking for :
- real golden/brown color
- fast drying (4hrs)
- tan : clear,medium,dark
- still at least 4/5 days

I ve tried
- Biddiscombe : Fuzion it the best at the moment... so brown (12%), fast drying, but do not still many days.
- Norvell : smell great (caramel), no wash off... but to clear, and not still many days
- One Belgium manufacturer : no more solution after the first shower !
- One french manufacturer : orange colour, and drying 6/8hrs...
- All About Me : waiting for the samples
- Breeze : waiting for the samples...

So, I need your advices and your experience to find the adequate.
If not i will to a mix of all these solutions ....

I use Breeze #5 & #9....waiting for the new 12.5 %.....

We seem to be having good luck with Biddiscombe "alcohol base" instead of the water base products. If you haven't tried you might want to get a sample.

I have been using React 10% for about 1 year now. It has a reddish/brownish tint to it. Smell is not bad and if you spray light the drying time is not bad. Website is www.reactcosmetics.com and they are having a big sale now. Good luck!!

Hi I use Ventura Tan. I use their quick dry and new generation...no smell and fast drying time! My clients seem to love it!

I use Swoosh 11 and it is a brown color. The ingredients has 2 Dark Browns 1 Black and 1 red. Not red, yellow, and blue like some of the others. So you do get a browner tan. My clients love this and won't go back to the others. It also has palmitoyl pentapeptide for firming and the addition of caffeine to help cellulite to disappear. Plus it does last on most 7 to 10 days.

Try Tampa Bay Tan 10%. Very brown. Not sure about lasting though.. Madeintheshade, where do you get swoosh?

abtanner · 08-01-2005, 11:00 AM

The only thing about swoosh 11 is that i didnt like the color guide. It has black flecks in it and my customers felt like they had to go home and hide for 6-8 hrs. Color after the shower was good and it seemed to last good.

Madeintheshade · 08-01-2005, 02:50 PM

abtanner, I have never seen any black flecks in it. I use the HVLP Whisper Mist TC3 Tanning Unit from Tampbay. You may have got a bad batch.

Has anyone tried Supernatural from Designer Skin? Smell is awesome, color is a beautiful bronze brown, customer doesn't fell so much like a popsickle while drying and the skin doesn't feel parched or dehydrated. I tried the samples they sent me than purchased a gallon. We were using Suddenly Sun by Cal-Tan. The off side is that there is only one color. For those who want a little darker I mix a little of the dark Suddenly Sun with it and the results are outstanding! The other good side is that when the customer starts to fade it is a more even fade and not so patchie. I have one customer that her color lasted for about 15 days. If you havn't tried Supernatural call DS and they will send you a 2oz sample. I notice not as much overspray and easier clean up! Plus I noticed I'm using a lesser amount to spray the whole body. Good luck and God bless!
