Temperatures have hovered in the 80's and 90's for the past few weeks here in Annapolis, and August will be sure to deliver some spray tan-worthy warm weather for us as summer continues! The Tan Cabana couldn't be more thrilled about this, because it offers our beloved clients dozens of opportunities to show off a gorgeous, even, all-natural bronze airbrush tan, hand-sprayed by our professional technicians in our Annapolis studio.

The Tan Cabana promises that when you schedule a spray tan with us, you can expect:

-Quick, efficient service--your appointment won't last longer than 30 minutes!

-A beautiful, impeccably clean and relaxing airbrush tan studio environment.

-Our all-natural, vegan spray tan solution will be matched perfectly to your skin tone, with our specialists even performing skin swatches to study the melanin in your skin, thus allowing them to select the most natural shade for an all-over brown (never orange!) tan that looks completely real and lasts for weeks!

-Amazing package deals and add-ons like our Anti-Aging Elixir and Shimmering Hydration Elixir--whatever you need to make your skin look and feel amazing, The Tan Cabana offers!

*Don't forget that The Tan Cabana here in Annapolis offers $10 off your first spray tan studio visit! Schedule with The Tan Cabana online 24/7 here, at Schedulicity, or call/text our airbrush tan specialist in Annapolis, Sara Lawrence, at: 410.456.6831.*

The Tan Cabana's Top 3 Tips on How to Make Your Spray Tan Last All Summer Long:

1. Moisturize your skin as often as possible after your custom spray tanning appointment--WITH AN OIL-FREE PRODUCT (oil-based products may degrade your spray tan). The reason for this is that your skin renews itself, with exfoliation naturally happening all the time (albeit at a slow rate!). However, if you moisturize your tanned skin regularly--and especially after a shower or before bed--then this process will slow down. Not to mention, soft, touchable and glowing skin!

2. Purchase The Tan Cabana's Hydrating Extender and use it regularly after your airbrush tan. If you're unsure of which moisturizing products might deplete the life of your tan, then you definitely want to invest in The Tan Cabana's Hydrating Extender lotion. It can make your professionally applied spray tan last up to two or three more days alone!

3. Limit exercise, chlorinated water and "things that make you sweat." After your spray tan, you have the perfect excuse not to head to the gym! (Plus our professional technicians know how to contour our spray tanning solution to your body so you look thinner and bikini-ready already!) Chlorinated water in pools and spas will also do a number on your spray tan, so avoid those as well. Finally, try to limit any sort of activity that might make you sweat a lot, and if you do, then be sure to apply some Hydrating Extender that evening to boost your airbrush tan.
