Spray tan?

Any of you ladies spray tan? I was a regular user of the tanning bed prepregnancy and now after 3 months of not tanning I'm feeling pretty pale! I have always been interested in spray tanning but I don't want to look orange! Anyone have good or bad experiences with it? Thanks!

  • I've never done spray tanning before
    but I have used Loreal Sublime self tanner and its amazing! It gradually builds to a tan you want and doesn't make you orange.
  • putting all those chemicals on your skin with a baby?  no thanks.

    Do some research in your area there are people that do organic spray tans that are plant based and last just as long. I had one done while breast feeding. It looked great! I plan on getting one before my vacation next month too.
  • I've done the spray tan thing many times and have always loved the results.  I've done both the booth and someone actually spraying me and there wasn't a big difference so I usually just do the booth as its faster.

  • My doctor told me its fine as long as you don't do it every week. I have a few weddings coming this summer so I'll probably do it for those special occasions.
  • My doctor told me its fine to do in moderation. I'll do it this summer for a couple weddings but not weekly or anything like that.
  • I've only done a spray tan a few times but it didn't leave me orange at all. I liked the result a lot.

    I think there is a special organic spray or a spray for pregnant women. I would ask your tanning salon.

  • I'm glad you asked this bc I was wondering the same thing. I'm in a wedding in June and really didnt want to be so pale in that bm dress. I def plan on looking into that organic spray tan that one poster mentioned.

  • I personally have never but a friend of mine has gotten it done and she always has a beautiful bronzed glow! I'm sure you can get it done everywhere but your belly if you're worried about what's in it. I used to work in a tanning salon...you'll need to te

  • Agreed. Not to mention the inhalation of vapors no bueno.

     

  • I'm in a wedding at the end of may and plan on doing the organic spray tan for that.
  • My sisters wedding is this coming weekend and I look like a pale stuffed sausage  in her bridesmaids dress. I asked my dr if I could get a spray tan and she said no. She said we just don't know enough, and covering your entire body and pores

  • Most self tanning lotions for at home use are ok...you dont have the risk of inhaling all the chemicals and it can be cheaper.

    One of my friends (who has had 2 kids) recommended St Tropez Tanning Mousse to me and I tried it last night and LOVE it
