Mystic Tans Experience....

I would tell you to try Tanfastic I or II. Their body spray tan is great...I have done this several times, including ofr my wedding and honeymoon, other weddings and vacations. They do a great job!! It last for a week or more. Good Luck!! I tried the Mystic Tan and didn't like it.

I really like the mystic tan. I don't know where you live but the Island Tan in Gladstone is where I go and I like it (if you go to their website www.islandtankc.com and click on coupons you can get a mystic tan for $15). There is a mystic tan website that says "Will swimming affect my tan?--Swimming in chlorinated water or salt water can fade the Mystic Tan™ results, cause possible streaking and will diminish the length of your tan. However, normal activities such as bathing, showering or physical activities will not affect the quality of the tan (source mystictan.com)" So I would say it probably does have an impact on it.

Hope this helps! Good luck and have a good vacation

I get the best results on vacation by doing the mystic tan before I leave and then taking a bottle of Loreal Sublime Glow with me to keep it up. It is sold at any walmart or target or any other store like that. The best part about it is, it's just a everyday moisturizer with a little bit of tanner it in. So you never get to orange and you don't get that disgusting self tanner smell. It smells good actually and has a little subtle shimmer to it.
I put it on after my shower everyday, and just make sure to wash your hands after you use it so you won't have any discoloration.
Also make sure you wear sunblock too!

Have fun!

Hi S., Chlorine water will make it fade faster, but you will still at least have some type of tan. I would suggest applying lotion quite often to keep your skin healthy and that will make your tan last a bit longer. As far as Linda B saying it is dangerous, she's wrong. Spray tans are a sugar base(DHA)wich is the same thing that is in many sports drinks. I'm sure you already know that it is cosmetic, so of course you'll need to wear a sunscreen so you don't end up looking like a lobster like her friend did. But again, it is very safe. Have fun on your trip.

I am curious of the spray on tans. How long do they last? How much does it cost and where around this area can you get spray on tans?

Thanks! M.

I too have tried those Tan Towels, but not the Mystic Tan. I liked the Tan Towels, they were quick and easy and I could do it at home. It lasts pretty long, but you can always take some with you to 'refresh' your look!

Hi S.
I have done the Mystic Tan several times and didn't have any problem with it coming off in water or the pool. It is the only way I can put on a swim suit with no tan! Have a great trip!

I got the mystic tan a few years back and I thought it looked HORRIBLE!!! Not sure what are you are in but in the St. Louis area at Tan Co they have something called bells beach. I got this done before my wedding and it looked great. It's kind of like airbrushing but one of the employees actually does it for you so that it is even. It doesn't stain clothes and is non toxic and only takes about 5 mins to get it done.

I use to do this all the time. It is like a stain so in time it will wear off. But it will not turn the water in the pool around you any color so not to worry about that. Besides if your going to be at a pool you will probably be tanning too.

One word of caution, don't wear white because if you sweat it can stain it yellow. You may already know this but, just in case.

yes, the tan will start to fade off in chlorine water. Actually, any water makes it come off - just faster with chlorine. Beauty Brands has little wipe-on towels to get a tan but it's not very dark like the spray.

Well, I'm dead opposed to doing any of these types of things...they just aren't good for you...but if you feel that you MUST...please remember that just because it looks like your skin is tanned, it doesn't diminish the fact that you will need to wear sunscreen in FL...my mil did this before she went to Cancun and wrongly assumed it was a base tan...well, let's just say lobster is more becoming on a plate then in your pictures.

I have had a great experience with the tans at Aussie Tan in Olathe. They are off 159th & Murlen their # is ###-###-####
