Spray Tan Perth

Spray tans have come a long way since they first came out on the market. They are the best way to get that golden glow without causing long term ageing and skin damage. Some people are reluctant to try spray tanning since they’ve heard horror stories about turning orange or getting streaks or patches on their skin. And it’s true that some spray tan solutions and tanning salons can do this. But not at Perth Body & Beauty.

After years of testing and researching spray tan solutions on the market, there are several brands which eliminate the problems associated with unwanted spray tan effects and can cater to almost any skin type.

Perth Body and Beauty is currently stocking several brands as the customer can vary in their skin requirements. Aviva Labs has been stocked here since it’s conception and with good reason – the results are simply brilliant. Similarly, Eco Tan is the latest edition to Perth Body and Beauty. There is a growing demand for organic products and Eco Tan prides itself on providing an Australian made 100% organic based tanning product. This is the brand that health-conscious consumers are now opting for.

Why Choose an Aviva Spray Tan?

Perth Body & Beauty has been using Aviva Labs products for since 2008. AVIVA LABS offers the highest quality airbrush sunless tanning solution that delivers beautiful, healthy, natural-looking tans. The unique water-based formula dries quickly, works as an excellent moisturizer and leaves the skin feeling silky after each application. It eliminates spotting and streaking that other solutions leave behind. Even the most sensitive skin will be free from dryness or itchiness often brought on by other liquids.

It is a common mistake to believe that all sunless tanning solutions are the same. Nothing could be further from the truth. Aviva Labs solutions are different! Aviva Labs has won multiple, independent benchmarks conducted by industry experts and salon & spa owners. When tested side-by-side with other sunless tanning solutions, salon & spa owners who know choose Aviva Labs. One of the biggest, most obvious reasons is the color a natural sun-kissed bronze glow combined with just a hint of your own natural undertones that looks like you just walked off the beach and fades like a real tan. But there is so much more:

  • ‘Just walked off the beach’ bronze colour with a hint of natural undertone

  • Oil-free

  • Alcohol-free

  • Fragrance-free

  • Hypoallergenic

  • Formulated with long-term health in mind

  • Dries in seconds instead of minutes

  • No sticky or greasy feeling

  • No staining of clothes or bed sheets

  • Solutions for every skin type

  • Only the essential ingredients

Spray Tan Preparation + Aftercare

💚 SPRAY TAN PREP 💚

  • Have clean (ideally exfoliated) skin

  • No moisturiser, products or deodorant on skin (light baby powder under arms is usually ok)

  • Wear loose clothing and slip on sandals/thongs for after tan

  • Recommend having towel to put on car seat after tan

  • MOBILE ONLY: Clear space in shower and make sure space is dry (no dripping shower). Water will ruin the tan. Put down towel or mat on shower floor to prevent you getting tan on soles of feet *** IMPORTANT: I have a mould allergy, so if your bathroom has mould, please advise in advance and we will need to make alternative plan, ie. spray in a fairly protected back courtyard ***

AFTER TAN CARE

  • Wear loose clothes or robe

  • Don’t get wet until ready to wash off

  • Shower and wash off with water only. I will give you time period to leave on for (usually 1-3 hours)

  • Pat dry skin and put on clothes as usual

  • Ideally avoid moisturiser or makeup for 12 hours

  • Tan colour usually take 24 hours to fully develop even though they have been washed off after a few hours

  • To maintain tan, do not scrub or exfoliate skin

  • Chlorine, baths, sweating and soaking skin will make tan come off faster

  • Moisturising daily will help prolong tan

  • Depending on skin type and weather (eg heat pr humidity), tans usually last 5-7 days. They look best with first 3 days

  • When you’re ready to remove and/or get a new tan, exfoliate skin and/or use a tan removal glove

Spray Tanning - Frequently Asked Questions (Aviva Labs)

  1. Does sunless tanning protect me against the sun?
    No, it does not and when out doors users of spray tans or any fake tans should wear a strong sun screen.

  2. Is sunless tanning safe? 
    Yes, it is! The FDA approved Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), a sugar cane derivative that results in the tan, for safety in 1973. When applied to the skin, DHA penetrates only the top layer of skin-it does not absorb into the body or bloodstream.

  3. Do your sunless tanning products contain erythrulose? 
    No. First, the only FDA-approved ingredient for sunless tanning is DHA. No other skin colorants, including erythrulose, have been approved as yet. Second, our comparative tests repeatedly demonstrate that erythrulose provides no significant difference in the tan’s application or performance.

  4. Do your sunless tanning products contain alcohol?
    No. Alcohol is very drying to the skin and can cause irritation. Furthermore, alcohol intensifies degradation of DHA and thus shortens the shelf life of the product.

  5. Do your sunless tanning products contain aloe vera?
    No. Aviva Labs developed a unique, new product that is water-based rather than aloe vera-based, yet is highly moisturizing and dries in seconds. You can truly feel the difference with Aviva Labs solutions.

  6. Do your sunless tanning products contain fragrances?
    No. First, fragrances are one of the major causes of allergic reactions. Second, no one wants sunless tanning solution that smells too flowery, fruity or sweet. Many salons that also cater to men especially appreciate Aviva Labs-fragrance-free solutions.

  7. Will I experience allergic reactions or acne with your products?
    Aviva Labs solutions are hypoallergenic-designed specifically for hypersensitive skin. Our products are oil-free, alcohol-free, and fragrance-free. Our philosophy is less is more, meaning that we use ingredients only that are necessary to achieve optimal results. If you have a hypersensitive skin condition or known allergies to sunless tanning products, consult with your physician.

  8. Will the sunless tanning products stain my clothes?
    Solutions that contain bronzers may transfer to your clothes if they touch your skin immediately after application. We recommend wearing garments that are loose and dark in color after application. However, Aviva Labs solutions are water-based for easy washing.

  9. How long does a sunless tan last?
    An Aviva Labs sunless tan will usually last 5-8 days. For best results, thoroughly exfoliate prior to application and moisturize generously each day after the application.

  10. I always burn in the sun and never tan. Can I still get a sunless tan? 
    Absolutely! If you are someone with skin type I who always burns in the sun and therefore has never been able to tan, you can achieve a sunless tan. With Aviva Labs, it will look terrific.
