Airbrush Tanning FAQs
At Pure Glow, we promise that your tan will look natural to your unique skin tone, flatter your unique shape, nourish your skin with safe, high quality ingredients and fade seamlessly. Our team of experts will greet you with Pure Glow's award winning hospitality and guide you through each step of your appointment, for an effortless appointment experience, every time.
The terms "airbrush tan" and "spray tan" are often used interchangeably, but there is notable difference between the two methods of sunless tanning. Airbrush tanning is done by a skilled technician using a handheld airbrush tanning gun that allows for a more precise and controlled application of the formula. This precision helps in achieving a more even, streak-free natural looking tan compared to that of a spray tanning booth where a machine sprays the tanning solution across the body.
With proper care, your Pure Glow tan should last 8-10 days.
Airbrush tan appointments take 20 minutes in total. We recommend giving yourself additional time for parking and for completing intake forms.
A Pure Glow tan will not stain regular fabrics like cotton, but we recommend avoiding dry clean only fabrics until after you’ve showered. Dark, cotton loose fitting clothes work best, like a long sleeve shirt and joggers.
You can shower in 5-7 hours. All of our tanning services offer express rinse times at no additional cost. Your tan does not continue developing after 7 hours, providing even more flexibility with rinse time for busy clients.
In order to maintain your Pure Glow tan we recommend moisturizing head to toe twice daily. This is incredibly effective and should not be overlooked. Our tan-extending moisturizer is designed to lengthen the life of your tan as well as promote even fading. If you prefer to use something from home, try a moisturizer that is oil and alcohol-free. Be sure to avoid excessive scrubbing or exfoliating for about a week after your airbrush spray tan.
We suggest booking your tan 1–2 days before your wedding or special event. This timing ensures your tan is fully set and at its most natural-looking for photos.
Yes. Many men in Boston come to Pure Glow Back Bay for a natural-looking tan before vacations, weddings, or professional photos.
