California is known for its effortlessly radiant, sun-kissed glow—never too dark, never unnatural. It's all about achieving that fresh, golden complexion that looks like you just spent the perfect day at the beach. With NUDA’s professional sunless tanning solutions, you can give your clients that iconic California tan with a flawless, natural-looking finish.
Choosing the Right Shade for a Natural, Golden Glow
When selecting the perfect spray tan shade for a California-inspired look, less is more. Opt for a hue that enhances the skin’s natural warmth rather than going too dark. If using a classic solution on a skin type 1-3, choose:
- Latte – A beautiful golden-brown shade that delivers a natural, sunlit glow.
- Moka – Slightly deeper than Latte, Moka provides a warm, golden-bronze finish for those who want a bit more depth without looking overdone.
If using a solution on a skin type 4-6, choose:
- Espresso - A deeper brown shade, enhances someones natural tan
- Hot Chocolate - The richest, darkest shade, will even out the skin tones of those with a naturally darker complexion.
For rapid solutions, the key is to use shades with warm undertones and guide clients on the perfect rinse time:
- Cappuccino – Featuring a brown-red natural bronzer, Cappuccino mimics the look of a true California tan with a slightly sun-kissed touch.
- Caramel – Rich and golden, Caramel enhances the skin’s natural warmth for a luminous, just-got-back-from-the-coast finish.
To keep the tan looking California-perfect, advise clients to rinse at the 2-4 hour mark, ensuring a natural, golden result without over-developing.
Attention to Detail: The Key to a California-Worthy Tan
A flawless, sun-kissed tan isn’t just about choosing the right shade—it’s about perfecting every detail. Using NUDA’s blending brushes, make sure to expertly blend out the hands, wrists, and feet. This ensures a seamless transition between tanned and untanned areas, preventing harsh lines and achieving a natural finish.
Subtle contouring can also elevate the California glow, adding just the right amount of definition. Use the NUDA wireless contouring gun to softly enhance cheekbones, define the jawline, and add a touch of dimension to the body. Light contouring on the stomach side walls and muscles can create a sculpted, beach-ready look without overdoing it.
Locking in Hydration for a Silky Finish
The key to a flawless, long-lasting California glow is hydration. That’s where Last Drop, NUDA’s hydration post-spray, comes in. This ultra-hydrating finishing mist locks in color while delivering a silky, nourishing finish, ensuring the tan develops smoothly and fades evenly.
By incorporating Last Drop into your spray tan routine, your clients will walk away with a hydrated, luminous glow that embodies the laid-back, sun-kissed beauty California is known for.
