PREPARATION
Prior to the initial session, our staff will meet with you for a brief consultation to determine and select the most complimentary and appropriate shade to match your complexion. Additionally, we will provide tips and suggestions – the Do’s and Do Not’s of Pre and Post-tanning sessions – to achieve the highest quality and longest lasting look imaginable.
Our airbrush technique is precise and unlike any other competitor. Most airbrush tanning solutions rely on inconsistent formulas that often result in an unnatural contour or, worse, an orange effect. At Slate, our solution is organic and odorless blend of purified water, aloe barbadensis, white tea extract, coffee bean extract, grapefruit seed extract, and dihydroxyacetone (a derivative of brown sugar) that produces a consistent, healthy, and envious bronze tone.
