Why does Spray Tan Solution Make People Stink? - Page 3 - tanTALK

I agree that white armpits are crazy, but overspray should do the job enough to where it doesn't stick out and look funny without making people smell too bad :)

I mean, I know this is gross, but I always feel like I smell of BO (like my armpits) the day of and day after tanning. Maybe I just need to wear more deoderant! Sorry, but I figured it was a common problem, but I guess it doesn't happen to all people. I use the 'Awaken" Line by Artisan Tan. Everyone comments that is smells nice right after you put it on!

I just posted about this on one of the other forums. I have the same problem :( would PH spray work? What is a good PH spray? Do Sluff wipes work? How do I avoid this?

Random question... Do you spray one or two coats on a client? I was trained with just one, but Sjolie states two with drying in between... Help!

I use sjolie and I have only had 1 client complain of their armpits stinking bad. I called sjolie and passed on the message to my client. It can slightly clog the pores and somehow causes a stronger smell. I just sprayed her armpits the next time very lightly and she didnt have a problem.

I use South Seas and love the color. I have found with any solution some people get that odor and some don't. The body wash that South Seas carries, Bikin Body wash is amazing. The clients who complained to me about the sunless odor now use the bodywash and no more smell!

My friend & I had this same discussion about six months ago & decided it was a deoderant problem too. We started wearing more on the day we tan each other & the problem was solved. We use Jamaica Me Tan & the solution smells tropical so we figured it must be us! LOL
