Introduction to Spray Tanning

What is spray tanning? How does it work?
Dihydroxyacetone (DHA) is a colourless sugar and the active ingredient in our tan solution that will be sprayed onto your skin. Applied using a specialist low pressure spraying machine, the DHA in the solution interacts with the proteins and amino acids in the outer layer of your skin to produce a golden brown colour
Is it safe?
Yes, very safe. A Sienna X sunless tan can give the same results as spending 10-14 days in the sun, but without the harmful effects of UV exposure.

DHA has been approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for use in the personal care industry for over 30 years and no adverse affects have been reported other than minor skin irritations.
Allergic reactions are extremely rare; however if you have experienced allergic reactions to self-tanning or other beauty products, please let us know. We always insist on a patch test before your first spray tan with us even if you are a regular spray tan customer. This is absolutely free and only takes a minute.
