What is it?
Mist-On is a new way of applying sunless tanning solution to your body. It combines the latest
advances in sunless tanning products with state-of-the-art misting technology(in a machine). A very
fine mist of sunless tanning solution covers your body in seconds. A bronzer gives you immediate
golden-brown color, and DHA gives you a long-lasting tan. Plus, a high-quality moisturizer makes
your skin feel soft and supple. It is a very sensual experience.
What’s in it? All the components in the Mist-On Tanning solution can be found in high-end cosmetic
products. The key components are:
Bronzer – water based cosmetic coloring.
DHA – dihydroxyacetone, the active ingredient in most sunless tanning products.
Moisturizer – contains 25% aloe vera, vitamin E, alpha hydroxy acids, beta hydroxy acids, and
collagen amino acids.
What does the tan look like? The initial tan, which you observe in seconds, is a deep, dark
brown. It is often referred to as a Jamaican tan. The initial color is from the bronzer, and will
wash off with your first bath or shower. The DHA tan, which peaks after 12 to 24 hours, is a
golden-brown color, often referred to as a Baywatch type tan.
How long does it take? The misting lasts for a matter of seconds, following by a 30-second
drying period. You then towel-buff (less than a minute) and you’re done. Most customers are in-
and-out of the Mist-On tanning room in 5 to 7 minutes, with most time spent putting clothes on and
off.
How long will it last? Our customers are reporting that the tan typically lasts 5 to 7 days.
The bronzer gives you instant color. The color intensifies rapidly, practically doubling in the first 30
minutes. The intensity again more-or-less doubles overnight. Most of the bronzer washes off with
your first bath or shower, but the DHA tan remains. The DHA tan begins to fade after about 24
to 48 hours, but you should have a distinct tan for 5 to 7 days.
How often do I need to do it? That’s up to you. Once a week will give you color. Twice a week
gets you quite dark. Some people want to be very dark, and do it even more often. We
recommend two or maybe three times your first week to get a base tan, and once or twice a week
after that, depending on your preference.
Can I go twice in a row? Yes, but we don’t recommend it, especially for your first time. While
you do get much darker, you increase your chance of having a cosmetic problem. Experienced Mist-
On tanners sometimes do back-to-back tanning sessions, but again, we don’t recommend it. At least
wait a few hours.
Will I turn orange or streak? No, you shouldn’t. The Mist-On tan is the most advanced sunless-
tanning method on the market. Sunless tanning has come a long way from those old QT days.
Is it safe? The Mist-On tan is a cosmetic. It uses the same basic sunless tanning components
as the products being promoted as a smart alternative to UV-exposure. The main unique feature
of this tan is the way it is applied --- an automated misting process.
What about allergic reactions? If you have hypersensitive skin, or are allergic to sunless-tanning
products, please proceed with caution. You should check with your physician prior to using this or
any other sunless tanning product. We have had very few reports of reactions of any sorts, but let’
s play it safe.
What if I breathe it? Although there is nothing in the mist that should cause problems if you
breathe it, we recommend that you hold your breath during the misting process.
What if it gets in my eyes? We recommend that you close your eyes during the misting,
especially since that will result in your eyelids getting tanned. However, we have not had any
significant issues related to eye irritation.
What about my hair? Hair nets (bouffant caps) are provided, but are optional. The mist beads
up on hair, but is not absorbed into hair, nor does it discolor hair.
Does it have the starchy odor of other sunless tanners? The starchy odor often associated
with sunless tanning is due to DHA reacting with your skin. Some people’s bodies seem to absorb a
starchy odor, and other people seem to shed it. Unfortunately, the odor may be observed in this
case since we use DHA just like other sunless tanning products. Ask the staff for tips minimizing
the odor.
Will it transfer to clothes? As with any other colored cosmetic, this product has the potential to
transfer to clothing. While this occasional transfer is a nuisance, most of our customers have
learned how to deal with it. In the vast majority of cases, transferred color washes right out.
More stubborn cases may require dry cleaning. The most likely time for transfer is immediately
after tanning. We recommend that you wear loose fitting, dark-colored clothes at that time.
