Rep Power: 0 | Burnt lips after airbrush tan??? OK, so my lips were a little dry/ chapped to begin with. I put on some basic chapstick before my airbrush tan. within 48 hours they got worse and the chapstick is NOT working. After 6 days I have uniformly burnt and blistered lips... and they hurt. I've had several spray tans before without this issue. Has anyone ever heard of this kind of reaction? |

You might want to have your artist switch your solution over to an organic spray and a little tip I give my clients is to tuck their lips in when I spray the chin and under the nose area. I shoot the face in 4 increments though, it's vital to me that their face, jawline and neck are perfect. Hope your lips feel better soon. |

Rep Power: 0 | Re: Burnt lips after airbrush tan??? I had chapstick on, yes. Did not wipe off afterward. I have had them feel dry before but never develop a uniform raised burn. All the way around. (it's not a cold sore). The only thing I did different was set the spray using 4 min in a tanning bed. I'm hoping that vaseline will work next time or that something else might have caused it cause I love my tan. It's supposedly organic spray and I love the color... But, my lips are according to my Dr. suffering from a 2nd degree burn and it is the tan is the most obvious culprit for a chemical-type allergy. |
