LA Tanning – Frequently Asked Questions
Which solution is best?
The ideal solution depends on skin tone and the colour your client wants. Our 10% solutions are popular for fair-to-medium skin: choose a golden natural shade or a more noticeable brown finish.
How many full-body tans can I get from one litre?
Usage varies by client and technique. A typical application uses approximately 50–75ml, giving at least 14 full-body tans per litre.
Does tanning solution expire?
We dispatch fresh stock. When stored correctly, an unopened bottle has a shelf life of around 12 months; once opened, approximately six months.
How should I store solution?
Store bottles in a cool, dark place away from natural light. Keep the lid secure to reduce oxidation and shake well before use.
Do LA Tan solutions contain parabens or alcohol?
No. Our solutions are paraben-free and alcohol-free and include aloe vera, white and green tea extracts, and vitamins B3, B5, B6, C and E.
Do the solutions have a colour guide?
Yes. Most shades use a dark guide colour; the Gold range uses a lighter guide to help technicians apply an even tan.
Do machines include a warranty?
Yes. Our machines include a 12-month warranty, subject to the warranty terms.
