Re: Norvell Amber Sun Review

I've used Norvell Amber Sun for years (Dark & Double Dark with bronzer). I use the Xlatan also. I'm curious about how the One and Blackout work and what the results are like in comparison with the other shades of Norvell. I have a few people that like to be really dark, and sometimes the Double Dark just isn't dark enough for them. Does anyone have any opinions/reviews on these products? Thanks so much!

Re: Norvell Amber Sun Review

In addition to my previous post...
My main concern is getting something that will have too high of a DHA% and turn people orange. I like the color from the Dark and Double Dark I just need something that is even darker at times. I haven't tried DHA booster drops either, so if anyone has any advise on what they like the best as far as drops or darker solutions, please help!:)

Re: Norvell Amber Sun Review

I have had great results with Norvell Amber Sun except I am confused with the following problems:

1. When fading my ankles seem to "collect" more color. Then my feet look dark and light in colors as it fades. It looks great for the first couple days after the spray but once it starts to fade those areas just don't look that great. Any suggestions?

2. 1 out of 10 clients will complain about an area of their hands turning dark or unnatural. Like just a dime size spot of a small long splotch. I have all my clients use plenty of barrier cream, but it seems to happen to some of them anyway. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Re: Norvell Amber Sun Review

I'm looking into trying Norvell, but can someone tell me what the DHA%'s are in each of their solutions. Orginal? Dark? and Double Dark?

Has anyone tried the solutions from Lavish Tan? Their ingredient description sounds amazing!

Seems very expensive...and if I've learned anything..expensive isn't always the best.

I was just looking up some reviews on Norvell Amber Sun to compare results and saw your post.

1. Ankles probably are receiving too much solution or are a bit dry so they are grabbing the colour. Maybe let go of the trigger as you approach the ankle or spray that area from further back to minimize the amount of solution .

2. I also had a couple clients when I first started with a mysterious dime size mark and I figured it was the barrier cream on a finger. As a result I no longer use barrier cream I just wipe nails and palms of hands with a cloth at the end of a session and no more mystery marks!

I know you probably figured everything out already but I love this site as a resource for hands-on real world information so maybe it will help others! Happy Tanning! : )
