Ok, this is for the serious tan geeks!
When it comes to spray tan base colours how do you work out which colour base is good for which skin type/colour?
I had always worked with green base tans and on my fair skin they always seemed a bit golden/orangy. I then found a violet base tan which I found better on my skin and my clients love but the company director has said that violet base can be ashy on darker skins so I should be using a green base on those skins. (They seriously have about 20 different tans to choose from all with different development times, base colours and % which really confuses me!)
I've now been reading about a new tan which is red/black base which is meant to be better for fair skins as (the director said) violet base can leave fair skins with a red tone.
Can anyone shed some light on all this please???
Thanks in advance
