Aviva Sunless Tanning

WHY AVIVA LABS

Aviva Labs manufacture their own products with your health and safety in mind, using only superior, essential, natural ingredients. It is a common mistake to believe that all sunless tanning solutions are the same. Nothing could be further from the truth. Aviva Labs solutions are truly different. Aviva Labs has won multiple, independent benchmarks conducted by industry experts and salon & spa owners. One of the main reasons is the natural colour - a sun-kissed bronze glow that looks like you just walked off the beach - not "orange" or artificial looking color.

Aviva Labs spray tan solutions are:

• Quick Drying
• Non Sticky
• Without Messy Excess
• Instant Wearing
• Odourless

Spray Tan Preparation

Before your session

Shower and thoroughly exfoliate your skin. Pay attention to rough/dry skin areas like knees, elbows, ankles and tops of feet.

Waxing and shaving should be done at least 24 hours before.

To your session

Your skin must be completely free of any moisturizer, deodorant, make-up or perfumes.

Wear loosely fitted clothing for after your tan. Any minor rub off will wash out of most fabrics.

AFTER TAN CARE

Avoid wetting your skin or activities that will cause over perspiration between the spraytanning and showering phase. You may shower after 6-8 hours. After each shower, always pat dry with your towel. Moisturize daily using AVIVA LAB'S exclusive after care products. Moisturizing will reduce the rate at which your skin sheds and will keep your tan looking better for longer. The use of hot baths, chlorinated pools and spas will reduce the life of your tan.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is sunless tanning safe?

Yes it is! The FDA approved Dihydroxyacetone (DHA), the active ingredient which is derived from sugarcane, for safety in 1973. When applied to the skin, DHA penetrates only the top layers of skin it does not absorb into the body or bloodstream.

How Does the Spray Tan work?

The tanning solution is applied evenly by your technician with a spray gun. Because the solution has a bronzer in it, this allows the technician to see exactly where they have sprayed, so you won't be left looking streaky! This takes about 15 minutes and results in an immediate natural looking tan that will continue to develop over the next 5 to 12 hours.

How long does a sunless tan last and will I go patchy?

An Aviva Labs sunless tan will usually lost 5-10 days. For best fading results, thoroughly exfoliate prior to application and moisturize generously each day after the application. The Aviva Labs skin care is designed to give the best after care. While the moisturising cream is designed to help the tan fade more naturally, the skin glow will extend the life of the tan.

Do your sunless tanning products contain fragrances?

No. Studies have shown that fragrances are one of the major causes of allergic reactions. No one wants a sunless tanning solution that smells too flowery, fruity or sweet. Many salons that cater to men especially appreciated Aviva Labs' fragrance-free solutions.

Will I go orange?

Your technician will use the Aviva Labs SkinType guide to help you determine what percentage solution would best suit you. Aviva Labs

solutions are designed so that only a light application is necessary. If you wish to go darker we suggest you have a higher DHA percentage solution rather than a heavier application.

I never tan but always burn in the sun. Can I still get a sunless tan?

Absolutely! If you are someone with skin type I who always burns in the sun and therefore has never been able to tan, you can achieve a sunless tan. With Aviva Labs 8% DHA solution, it will look terrific.
