Spray Tans + Weddings
Spray tanning can often be a service that is overlooked for brides.
As a sunless provider, it is our responsibility & joy to educate our clients on the benefits of going sunless for their weddings.
We already know the perks but let’s be sure we share them with our bride-to-be clients.
THE PINTEREST BRIDE
Every single Pinterest photo bridal look has a glowy-looking bride. Let’s be real that’s where brides are going to look for their wedding day beauty inspo. As a Makeup Artist also, I find I am just not able to get that overall glow without a tan. Makeup alone won’t cut it. Trust me the makeup artist will thank you when she goes to do the makeup if your bride has a well-executed tan. Plus the photos look so bomb!
SNOW WHITE
Who wants to be the same color as their wedding dress LOL?
Even with the trend of nude underlays & blush-toned gowns...pale skin is not the most complimentary complexion on gorgeous detailed light-colored gowns.
TAN LINES
Tan lines & strapless dresses….a common problem for brides.
We would love to be able to get a perfectly even tan naturally but unless you are lying naked outside it's not going to happen.
Number one: Who’s got time for that.
Number two: Too much sun exposure can be damaging to the skin.
The awesome thing about airbrush spray tanning is that they can be 100% customized to suit each and every bride & their skin concerns. This means you have a farmer’s tan, a sports bra tan, a Birkenstock sandals tan, no problem it can be corrected.
PHOTO CONSISTENCY
If you are like me, my husband and my skin tones are literally the exact opposite. This is lovely and all unless you are a photographer. It can be hard to capture the proper flash balance when there are a wide variety of skin tones in one photo. If you have a deep skin tone next to a super fair completion they don’t always photograph well together. One or the other is getting lost or washed out.
Getting a tan can actually help to correct this problem & the contrast is not as obvious on camera.
UNEVEN SKIN
Perhaps your bride has a tanned complexion already. But some areas that don’t see the sun as often can have a totally different tone. A spray tan helps to even out the skin tone, neutralizes spider veins, the appearance of bruises reduce the appearance of ashy or drier areas & allover just give each person a glow no matter the complexion. #winwin
HEALTHIER & SKINNIER
We love & cherish ALL body types, but who doesn’t want to look glowing ( creating a feeling & appearance of radiance & just looking healthy).
And hey, toned, tighter & skinnier? Why not!
Brides want to look & feel their best for their wedding day, dress on and also once that dress comes off ;)
Our brides say they feel more confident in their own skin with a little color.
NEXT LEVEL
Now most brides want to pamper themselves and do ALL THE THINGS they usually wouldn't do for themselves. It is sad that we don’t do these things all the time. But at least for one day to the things that make us feel like the queens we are!
For an enhanced experience airbrush or mini contour, spray tanning is so much fun! Brides might want a little booty lift, some chiseling of abbs, facial contour, or shading of the torso to create a more defined hourglass figure.
The beauty of sunless tanning is that it's an art and the body of our canvas. For brides who want to take their tanning experience to the next level contouring is the way to go!
IT’S NOT ONE SIZE FITS ALL
We recommend that our brides have a trial & align that with their makeup trial so they can see how the completed wedding look will be. The great thing about a trial too is that we can experiment with different options to see which solution is best for them. Professional sunless artists have a variety of different solutions & spray tan techniques that will be perfectly customized to suit each bride's need. A trial is the best way to discover what your sunless style is!
Can you tell I am passionate about spray tanning? I just know it’s a total game-changer for my bridal clients. I trust it will be the same for yours!
