Airbrush tanning formula is applied inside the
tanning spray booth to artificially tan your skin without using
ultraviolet light. In airbrush tanning formula, tanning guns spray mist
containing dihydroxyacetone (DHA), a coloring agent. The American
Academy of Dermatology has assented it as safe and it is used as a
general ingredient in sunless tanning sprays or lotion products.
The artificial airbrush tanning formula is applied for short
durations where colors are sprayed from tanning booths that generally
last up to ten days. Airbrush tanning is done by spraying a special mist
on the body by the fire bucket in a booth, which are available at most
salons and spas. The mist shed by the sprays contains DHA, a chemical
stimulant that reacts with dead skin cells and cosmetically dye the skin
brown.
So, after you airbrush tanning, the skin becomes golden
brown in color that usually looks like a natural tan. Because, the spray
is applied over the skin and doesn't penetrate to do anything with the
natural melanin hence, the effect of the tanning lasts only a couple of
days.
Precautions should be taken against the spray getting into
eyes or mouths. Don't inhale the spray. Airbrush tanning formula mist is
either water based or oil based. Those having sensitive skin prefer the
water base spray. The salons will offer different types of mists and you
can make a choice for the level of darkness you want. If your skin is
very fair, don't go for took dark color, that will look fake and awkward.
