If you are looking to get tanned yet you do not want to spend countless hours exposed to the sun’s harmful UV rays, then Mystic tanning is your best viable option. Mystic spray tan
is a kind of spray on tanning system that is usually done inside a specially engineered tanning booth. This system is 100% UV free unlike lying under hot lamps which still exposes you to harm. This system uses an application that generates an airbrush like movement that can produce an almost natural, streak-free tan.
Mystic Tan options
You have two options to choose from when getting the Mystic spray on tan
treatment namely:
- BronzMyst for a darker bronze look or
- ClearMyst for a sun kissed look.
A major upside to Mystic spray tan is that it doesn’t entail a lot of preparation on your part if you are planning to attend a social event or the like. No need to do regular visits to a tanning salon instead, just go there once or twice in a two week span before the event and you’ll be flaunting that beautiful sun kissed tan.
How Often Do You Spray Tan?
You can actually have mystic spray tans done as much as you like but for the best results, have it done twice the first week, having the second regimen done an even 4 days preceding the first one. You can maintain that golden bronze look by checking back every 4 to 5 days as it will start to fade in this time.
How Does The Process Work?
The Mystic spray on tans process is rather a bit complicated so I will try to explain it as vividly as possible.
It works by emitting a harmless electromagnetic fog catalyzed by only the best sunless tanning formulas around. The plates that make up the tanning booth are grounded thus making your skin serve as a magnet to this fog allowing it to stick to your skin evenly. After this tedious process, you might be shocked to see that your skin color has not changed at all.
This is perfectly normal; it usually takes a good 6 hours for the oxidation of the sunless tanning spray that’s now latched to your skin to kick in. Before heading out to get your tan, it is advisable to exfoliate your skin thoroughly using a scrub in the morning.
The purpose of this is to remove the dead skin cells on your epidermis allowing the healthy cells to surface. This in turn will help the tanning regimen yield better results.
For even longer and better tanning results, you can opt to purchase the Mystic Tan Maintainer which is a body lotion custom engineered to compliment the effects of the Mystic spray tanning System.
Mystic Spray Tanning Preparation Steps:
1. Be sure to prepare your skin by exfoliating and then moisturize the skin thoroughly (lotion). This will help extend tan life.
2. Make sure you leave all jewelry and other items out of the booth.
3. Enjoy the spray on tanner and wait at least 4-5 hours before you get wet (shower, pool, bath, sweat etc..)
Mystic Tan FAQ
What is Mystic Tan?
It is a sunless spray tanning
mist applied in a sweeping motion with a formula composed of the FDA approved (DHA) dihydroxyacetone a simple carbohydrate derived from plant sources (sugar beet & sugar cane). It reacts with the skins outer layer (epidermis) to give the skin a golden brown pigment.
What Do You Wear When Getting Mystic Tan?
Most people wear nothing so they have no tan lines. You probably want to wear a shower cap or something to cover your hair. while the spray tan cannot penetrate hair follicles, if you have very light colored hair it can stain it temporarily.
How Long After the Mystic Tan Before I Can Shower?
It is recommended that you wait at least 4 hours before getting wet or sweating. This includes, shower, bath, or any kind of physical activity that makes you perspire.
Will Swimming or Bathing/Showering Affect My Tan?
Swimming in chlorinated water will fade your tan quicker than normal (avoid if possible). However showering, bathing or physical activity will not affect the life of your tan.
Does Mystic Tan Make You Look Orange?
Definitely not. The reason for “orange looking” tans is an inconsistent tan application usually in the form of a cream or lotion applied by hand. The result is an uneven or streaking tan because there is too much in one location and not enough in the others.
Will I Stink or Smell Bad After Mystic Tan?
Stink is a strong word but you will definitely have a starchy type smell for a little while. This is normal and the result of the DHA reacting to the protein in your skin.
Has Anyone Ever Had an Allergic Reaction to Mystic Tan?
The ingredients used in Mystic Tan have been used for years in cosmetics and other beauty products and are proven safe. However if you are prone to allergic reactions or have had one to a product it is best to see your dermatologist first before using any kind of tanning spray, creme or lotion. You can always “test patch” a very small part of your skin to see if it reacts negatively before you do your whole body.
What is DHA and is it Safe?
DHA stands for Dihydroxyacetone which is also known as Glycerone. It is a simple carbohydrate that comes form various plant sources such as sugar cane and sugar beets. It is a white crystalline powder that had a sweet smell and taste. It in non toxic and non carcinogenic to the body. Those worried about inhaling a little should be at ease as this is not harmful to the body.
It has been used in a plethora of sports supplements for years and has been considered less toxic than table salt.
