Questions Answered

When will my spray tan look its best? (I want to plan ahead for an event!)

Your spray tan will look its absolute best 24 to 48 hours after your appointment. This gives the color time to fully develop, settle into your skin tone, and allows your first rinse and moisturization to enhance the final result.

For events like weddings, vacations, photo shoots, or special occasions, I recommend scheduling your spray tan 1 to 2 days beforehand. That way, your tan will be fully developed, any initial bronzer residue will have been rinsed off, and your skin will be glowing and photo-ready. ALSO REMEMBER TO PREBOOK WHEN YOU KNOW OF EVENTS AND VACATIONS SO YOU CAN BE SURE TO GET IN ON YOUR IDEAL DAY AND TIME!! 


When should I schedule my next spray tan to stay bronzed? What should I do—or avoid—before getting tanned again so soon?

If you want to maintain a seamless bronzed look, the ideal time to schedule your next spray tan is 7–10 days after your last one, depending on how your skin naturally fades and how well you've maintained your tan with moisturizing and gentle care.

Before getting your next tan, it's very important to properly prep your skin so you don’t layer color over uneven or fading areas. Here’s what to do:

  1. Gently exfoliate your skin 24 hours before your next appointment to remove any remaining tan and create a fresh, even base.
  2. Focus on areas that fade faster, like your hands, feet, neck, and inner arms.
  3. Avoid using heavy oils or residue-based exfoliants right before your appointment, as they can affect how the new tan develops.
  4. Come to your appointment with clean, dry skin—no lotion, deodorant, or perfume.

This way, your second tan goes on smooth, lasts longer, and looks fresh—not patchy or layered.


What makes your spray tans stand out?

At Charmed Touch Esthetics, we use a professional-grade spray booth and commercial spray gun to deliver the finest mist for a flawless tan. With years of experience, I ensure a natural, even glow by hand-blending areas like hands and feet. Before your session, I apply a pH-balancing spray to prep your skin, and after your tan, I use a post-setting powder to enhance longevity and comfort. Of course this is all in a beautiful witchy esthetic environment that is designed to bring out the power and beauty in us all! 

What spray tan retail items do you have available in your salon?

At Charmed Touch Esthetics, we carry a carefully selected range of retail products to help you prep, maintain, and extend your tan—and keep you glowing between visits. Some of the items we typically have in stock include:

  1. Tan erasers – for gently removing old color or prepping your skin before your next tan
  2. Gradual tanning lotions – to build or boost color over time
  3. Oil-free soaps – specially formulated to cleanse without stripping your tan
  4. Body butter & jelly – ultra-hydrating options to keep your skin moisturized and your tan lasting longer
  5. Glow drops & self-tanners – perfect for touch-ups or subtle at-home bronzing
  6. Tanning mitts – for smooth, streak-free self-tanner application

We're also excited to be adding new items soon, including flip-flops, bikinis, loose dresses, and robes—ideal for wearing on spray tan days or grabbing if you forget to bring something dark and loose to your appointment.

All of our products are handpicked with your tan’s longevity and your skin’s health in mind.

Why is your pricing so reasonable compared to others?

I intentionally keep my spray tan pricing affordable because I believe everyone deserves access to a safe, beautiful glow—without risking their health. As an advocate against skin cancer, I'm deeply committed to promoting sunless tanning as a healthier alternative to UV exposure, especially for teens and young adults who are often influenced by tanning culture.

You’ll still receive top-quality service, professional-grade equipment, and custom-blended solutions—all at a price that reflects my mission: to make safe, natural-looking spray tans available to more people, more often. One for $30 or two for $50!

How does the spray tan process work? Does a person spray tan me? Can I go nude or topless?

At Charmed Touch Esthetics, your spray tan is applied by a professional (me!) using a high-end spray gun inside an advanced, private spray tan booth. This allows for a precise, even mist and a customized, natural-looking result.

You’re welcome to wear whatever you're comfortable with during the session—many clients choose to go nude, topless, or wear a disposable thong or swimsuit. It’s completely up to you, and your privacy is always respected.

Before your tan, I’ll apply a pH-balancing prep spray, and after, I finish with a setting powder to help you feel dry and comfortable while your tan develops. The entire session takes about 15–20 minutes, and you’ll receive full instructions for care before and after your appointment to ensure a beautiful, long-lasting result.

Will I look orange or streaky?

Not at all—your tan will look smooth and natural when the proper prep and post-care instructions are followed. I use professional equipment and techniques, including detailed hand blending and custom shade matching to complement your unique skin tone. I also choose solutions with just the right level of bronzer—avoiding overly dark or orange results.

To maintain that natural look, please refrain from adding extra bronzing drops or layering other products after your spray tan, as this can shift the color and lead to an unnatural tone. With the right care and guidance, you'll walk away with a flawless, sun-kissed glow every time.

How long will my spray tan last?

When applied in our advanced pro spray booth using the premium rapid mist solution and finished with setting powder, your spray tan at Charmed Touch Esthetics can last 7 to 10 days—sometimes even longer, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and how well you care for it afterward.

Here’s why your tan lasts:

  1. Precision application: The commercial-grade spray gun delivers a fine, even mist for smooth coverage and optimal absorption.
  2. High-performance solution: We use a rapid-developing, vegan-friendly formula that works with your skin tone and allows for a faster rinse time without compromising depth or longevity.
  3. pH-balancing spray & setting powder: These help the tan adhere better, develop evenly, and prevent patchiness or streaks. The powder also reduces post-tan stickiness and keeps you comfortable while it processes.
  4. Custom color matching: Your solution is chosen to suit your natural skin tone with just the right level of bronzer—never too much—to ensure a natural fade instead of a blotchy breakdown.


To maximize how long your tan lasts, aftercare is essential:

✅ Rinse at the time I recommend based on your desired depth (usually 2–3 hours for lighter tones, up to 4 for deeper tones)

✅ Use lukewarm water and skip soaps or lotions during your first rinse

✅ Avoid exfoliating, shaving, or long hot showers while your tan develops and wears

✅ Moisturize daily with a tan-safe lotion or butter to lock in hydration

✅ Use only oil-free, sulfate-free soaps and skincare

With proper care, your glow will fade gradually and evenly, and you’ll stay bronzed and radiant well beyond the first few days.
