I am sorry...I am no skin geek but I have watched this thread with some interest and incredulity!!
My first thought was did you check this clients pants were not on fire????

I have a reasonable tan after 2 weeks on holiday (safe tanning geeks, factor 30 all the way!!), a good healthy golden colour, but I have only been back 5 days and it is fading fast!!!!
So sorry but no way can any fake (can I use the f word??) tan last for 4-6 weeks.
IMHO!

hi

been looking about on the net and found a couple of things that maybe the lady could've been talking about:

Inject-a-tan will challenge the sunbed - Times Online - apparently not legal in the UK

Tanning pills - can I really achieve sunless colour?

Hello everybody!
Sorry to intrude, as i am only a nail geek, but I think that during an exhibition in my country, this spray caught my eye.
I didn't buy it but i looked for the leaflet they gave me because I always keep them (just in case) and found it!
Sorry I don't have a scanner to pass the picture over but here is what it is written:
"For the first time we present you the new break-through of a fadeless tanning spray from the top Sun Laboratories company! The perfect spray-on tan in 5 minutes!"
Now this is a translation from greek to english that i made myself so forgive me for any errors, however the leaflet doesn't have a picture of the bottle but that company has a site if you search at google.
I didn't have time to have a detailed look and i don't know if that's the one you are looking for but i thought i'd give it a go and tell you about it!
Hope it is what you're looking for!

Does it have a web site address or company name on the leaflet as in my opinion it is impossible to have a fadeless tanning spray! (is sun laboratories the name of the company - cant find any info on their website about a fadeless tan)?

Thanks for the info.

This might give you some further insight into this issue

Maybe she is using a DHA-based moisturiser? She might be applying more DHA on top of her spray tan without realising it and topping it up. I have had clients who top up their own tans after a week or so with a 'fake tan' in a bottle. They just see it as topping up, not reapplying.

4-6 weeks has to be impossible for a spray tan, as other have said, a UV suntan would fade in that time. I have heard of the injections but that certainly doesn't appeal to me.

Any tan only lasts as long as the skin that is tanned lasts...7/10 days.

I think this customer of yours has her wires crossed here

Do keep us posted though
I totally agree, sounds like complete nonsense to me. There's no way it could penetrate deep enough to last that long. Unless she doesnt bath for 4 weeks.... lol

Unfortunately no.
The company that gave me the leaflet wasn't Sun Laboratories, it was just a greek company that simply imports products from SL.
If you want i can give them a ring and ask for more information about this tanning spray (how long it lasts etc).
Maybe it's the one we're looking for , maybe not.
If i call them, are there any particular questions you'd like me to ask?
