Bronze is an alternative to actual beach tanning that can be harmful to the skin.
The Babyliss Beach Bronze Salon system is an at-home tanning system marketed as a salon-quality, do-it-yourself product. In addition to the airbrush applicator unit that has its own applicator bottle and airbrush stand, the kit also comes with four bottles of the tanning solution, a bottle of Babyliss Beach Bronze Body Smoother, and a tanning screen with its own storage pouch as of 2010. The unit will work with other tanning solutions brand as long as they are professional spray-tanning products.
Instructions
Tanning Preparation
1. A gentle exfoliating scrub helps remove any dead skin cells from the skins surface for a more natural, even spray tan.
Scrub the entire body gently with the Babyliss Beach Bronze Smoother to exfoliate and shave all areas you typically shave.
2. Moisturize facial skin also, if it will be included in the session.
Rinse and dry the skin. Apply a moisturizer and allow the lotion to absorb completely. This process should be completed eight to 10 hours before spray tanning, for best results.
3. A discardable floor covering is necessary to prevent bronzer from staining the floor.
Assemble the spray tan area by placing a discardable sheet, towel or rug on the tanning area floor and assembling the tanning screen from the Babyliss Tanning System kit around the floor covering.
4. Connect the air compressor, hose and bronzer formula bottle onto the airbrush unit. Place the bottle in the stand next to the already assembled spray tan screen.
Tanning
5. Secure the hair away from the face in a shower cap.
6. A barrier cream can be a heavy moisturizer or Vaseline that keeps the bronzer from adhering to the skin.
Apply a barrier cream like Vaseline to the palms of the hands, bottoms of feet and any other area of the body that you do not want to be spray tanned. Step into the pre-prepared tanning area.
7. For best results, start spray tanning with the feet and move upward.
Spraying in a small, circular motion, with the airbrush unit 10 to 12 inches from the feet, lightly cover the feet with spray.
8. Spray with the same motion up the front of the legs, trunk area and arms. Be sure to spray the front of each section first. Then move to the side, back and other side where applicable, to ensure complete coverage.
9. Instruct the subject to hold their breath and close their eyes before you begin spraying the neck and face. Work in small 30-second bursts to give the person an opportunity to breathe.
10. Disassemble the spray tan equipment and clean according to included instructions to prevent clogging. Spray tan products differ in drying time so consult the product literature for required drying times.
