Spray Tan on the Central Coast
Darling, a good spray tan looks nothing like an orange disaster from 2004. Professional spray tanning at Glow Beauty Space — with locations in Wamberal and North Narrabeen — delivers a controlled, buildable result applied by trained beauty therapists who know what they're doing. Whether you want a subtle warmth for every day or a deeper bronze before an event, the result should look like you've been in the sun, not painted.
What to Expect
A Glow spray tan is applied by a trained therapist — not a booth machine. This matters: a therapist can adjust application based on your skin tone, even out areas prone to patchiness, and use technique to ensure a natural-looking result.
Before your appointment:
- Exfoliate 24 hours before (not immediately before — this opens pores and makes skin temporarily more absorbent in inconsistent ways)
- Shave or wax at least 24 hours before — never on the same day
- Come with no moisturiser, deodorant, makeup, or perfume on your skin — these create barriers and cause patchy results
- Wear loose, dark clothing to your appointment
During the appointment:
The process takes around 15–20 minutes. You'll be misted with tanning solution while the therapist works through each section of the body systematically. The formula contains DHA (dihydroxyacetone), which reacts with amino acids in the skin's surface cells to produce colour. A guide bronzer in the formula shows immediate colour; the DHA develops over the following 6–8 hours.
Glow tan services include:
- Standard spray tan (light, medium, or dark depth)
- Express tan (faster-developing formula; you rinse in 1–3 hours rather than 6–8)
- Pre-event tan (timed for specific occasions)
Pricing
| Service | Estimated Price |
|---|---|
| Full body spray tan | $50–$80 |
| Express spray tan | $60–$90 |
| Half body | $40–$60 |
All pricing confirmed at booking. Prices may vary slightly between the Wamberal and Narrabeen locations.
Who Is This Best For
Spray tans at Glow suit:
- Anyone with an upcoming event — a wedding, formal, birthday, or holiday where you want a polished, consistent colour before you go
- Regular tan clients who maintain year-round warmth and have established what depth and formula works for their skin
- Fair-skinned clients wanting a believable result — professional application and the right shade selection makes the difference between a result that works on pale skin and one that doesn't
- Those who've had bad experiences elsewhere — inconsistent booths, patchy results, or colour that turned green or orange on your undertone; therapist-applied tanning with the right formulas changes this
- Pre-shoot or pre-event preparation — spray tan sits alongside makeup and hair prep for professional photo work
Spray tan is not suitable for skin with open wounds, sunburn, or active skin conditions like eczema in a flare. Patch testing is available if you have significant skin sensitivities.
Aftercare
Getting the most from your spray tan means following the aftercare closely:
- Don't wash, sweat, or let water touch your skin for the first 6–8 hours after a standard tan (or 1–3 hours for express formula)
- When you first rinse, use water only — no soap or shower gel on first rinse; the guide bronzer washes off but the DHA colour remains underneath
- Moisturise daily — hydrated skin holds a tan significantly longer; dry skin sheds faster and causes patchiness
- Avoid long soaks in baths, spas, or the ocean — prolonged water exposure strips tan faster
- Exfoliate gently only when you want to start removing the tan — not before
- Reapply every 7–10 days to maintain consistent colour
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a spray tan last?
Most spray tans last 7–10 days before fading. The main variable is how well you moisturise — hydrated skin holds colour noticeably longer than dry skin.
Will spray tan look orange on fair or cool-toned skin?
The orange issue comes from low-quality formulas and incorrect shade selection. At Glow, your therapist will match formula depth and undertone to your skin. Cool-toned (pink or beige undertone) skin generally needs a different formula base than warm-toned skin.
Can I get a spray tan if I'm pregnant?
DHA is generally considered safe when applied topically and not inhaled. However, if you're pregnant, discuss it with your medical provider before booking. If you proceed, the therapist can take precautions to minimise inhalation during application.
How dark can I go in one session?
This depends on your natural skin tone and the formulas available. Going too dark in one application on very fair skin rarely looks natural. Your therapist will advise on the right shade to start with, and you can build over subsequent sessions.
Is spray tan safe for my face?
Yes, but facial skin is thinner and more reactive. Your therapist will apply carefully to the face and you can request to skip it if you prefer. Avoid applying DHA near your eyes or lips.
