Spray tan questions :)

in Parenting after a Loss
Anyone ever get one? Is it fake or orange looking? If I want it for a Sat wedding when should I go? Would it be weird if I don't do my face? How long will it last? Thanks, going to  A wedding and I want to skip the panty hose.

    I got one once and I loved it!   I think it was called Versa, not Mystic.  The initial spraying scared the crap out of me!  lol!  The spray was a little cold!  I think it can last a couple of weeks.  I would go 3 to 4 days before the wedding.  If your not going to do your face are you going to do some other kind of sunless tanning lotion or something on it?  I did my face.  If you go where they know what you are doing, you should not look orange or fake.  Just tell them you want something subtle and not crazy dark. 

    Just make sure you follow directions on when to turn and how to position your hands!

    Cool, thx. I was just afraid to do my fast but I guess it makes sense to do it.

    I had airbrush tan done for a wedding once. I liked it. I do not think it looked fake at all. The biggest piece of advice I can give you is exfoliate before you go, and make sure you are moisturized. Pay extra attention to hands and feet because that is where there is a tendency to turn orange IMO.

    I would get the tan at least 3-34days before the wedding 
    I have only done it once
    The day of the tan you will think you made the biggest mistake of your life, but it will fade a lot after your first shower & you'll be gorgeous :O) 
    Mine lasted a long time 
     
    If you don't mind the extra money go for the airbrushed tan  
    not the one where you stand in a spray booth
    It is a little odd standing naked while someone airbrushes you but it is an awesome tan :O)

    I got it once and hated it and will never do it again. It was also the Mystic tan. I thoroughly used the lotion like they tell you to and still had orange feet and hands and the bottoms were white. Then when I got in my hot leather interiored car, it all melted off all over them and my clothes. I showered three times trying to get it all off. I would NEVER do it again. It was a silly idea to impress someone or something. Ridic!

    I got one. Made out of sugar or something. I smelled delish when I left the salon.
