Airbrush Tanning At Home.....worth it or not?

After deciding our spray tans at SunTan City were a bit expensive, we researched spray tanning at home. Many blogs and websites later, we chose Kahuna Bay spray tan formula in Kahuna Melange. We set up a booth in our basement with tarps, bought a paint airbrush from a home building supplier and we already had an air compressor. Since Kahuna Melange had bronzer already in it, we knew we didn't need bronzer drops. We coated our ankles, palms, toes and fingers with a scent free lotion to avoid super brown extremities. After about one hour of making sure we didn't miss any body parts, we waited and hoped for the best. We are now on day three and our tan is still present without streaks and we do not look like oompa loompas. We ordered the trial kit of original, dark and extra dark. I am liking the original. Being naturally fair skinned, I don't think I would want to go darker. I am going to try the darker colors on my mom, as she is darker complected, and see how those look. The VersaSpa formula at SunTan City always seems to vary in how good it looks. Lately it's worn off my skin in two days. After trying Kahuna Melange, I think my husband and I are going to stick with it and say farewell to SunTan City. Saving money and still looking good is always in style in my mind.

Carolyn Braden says "Stop tanning in tanning beds."

I started doing spray on tans. This year I decided to stop my summer addiction to a tanning bed. It's horrible for your skin and health. I know it cost more for the spray on package (trying out VersaSpa at SunTan City) but it's cheaper than getting all the sun spots removed when I get older. It gives me (a somewhat fair skinned redhead with freckles) just the right amount of color.
