Hot-girl-summer is officially in full swing and you just realized your skin hasn’t seen the light of day since 2020? (Because, same.) It’s been a long, dark year and we are finally ready to get out there; we’re talking beach trips, backyard BBQ’s, brunch with the besties, and maybe even a first date or two! If you’re feeling ready to mix and mingle but your skin isn’t, never fear; Moka Mobile Glow has you covered. 
​
1. Get the glow, skip the damage.  
So, you know how fabulous you feel when you return from that tropical vacation with golden, sun-kissed skin? It’s easy to forget, but that that golden glow is actually severe damage to your skin. There’s no denying it, tanning is objective evidence of DNA damage. (I know, right? Such a buzzkill!) That damage can not only lead to signs of premature ageing, but it can also put you at a higher risk of cancer. The good news? There’s a better way. 
With a spray tan from Moka Mobile Glow, you can get that gorgeous golden glow without any of the health risks or skin damage. And the benefits don’t stop there; our spray tans include skin-nourishing ingredients that will leave your skin feeling even better than it started! 

2. Choose the hue that’s right for you!
Sun tanning, bed tanning, self-tanners, and spray tan booths all lack the ability to be fully customized to your skin tone. Our spray tans can be customized and formulated based on your natural skin tone to complement your unique undertones and give you the most natural looking results possible. Orange? We don’t know her!
Plus, your ideal hue changes throughout the year which means we can change your formula with it.  What’s right for your everyday look in January might be a lighter golden tone vs the beautiful, deep, ashy hue you’ll crave before you get on that plane to Cancun. Moka works with you to dial in your perfect tone no matter what time of year. 

3. Easy, breezy application.
Have you ever used those self-tanner mitts? Even on their best day they can come out patchy and streaky (and those hands, feet, and elbows never turn out quite right!). Moka Mobile Glow uses an airbrush application that is guaranteed to give you a natural, streak-free look. Airbrushing also means we can work with the beautiful, natural contours of your body to leave you with a more toned appearance. It’s a win-win.

4. Instant results without leaving the house!
One of the best parts about getting your glow on with us? We come to YOU! That’s right, you don’t even have to leave your house to get the perfect golden glow. That means you won’t need to spend hours in the sun or make multiple trips to the tanning salon to get the results you want. We come to you and make the entire process safe, simple, and easy! 

5. When you look good, you feel good! 
We firmly believe that a good spray tan is the ultimate mood booster. Not only will your skin come out silky smooth, golden, and smelling incredible, but it will also help you feel instantly slimmer and more toned. You’ll be feeling fabulous and turning heads like the goddess you are!  

Shopping for products that you know will be safe for your spray tan can feel a bit overwhelming. To cut out some of the headache, here is a list (with amazon links) of a variety of affordable products that will keep you glowing as long as possible.


1. Exfoliators
Properly prepping is mandatory for a perfect spray tan. Exfoliating your entire body gets rid of dead skin cells and dry patches, giving a nice even surface for the spray tan solution to adhere to. Spray tan solution can stick to and develop in a darker, unflattering tone on dry skin. Failure to exfoliate may cause your spray tan to appear patchy and may result in uneven settling. Exfoliating mitts, gloves, and towels are great tools to use along with exfoliating scrubs. If you do choose to exfoliate with a scrub be sure to rinse EXTRA well after, as a lot of them contain oil which will cause a barrier on your skin. After your appointment, don't exfoliate until you're ready to say goodbye to your spray tan. *Don't forget to exfoliate those hands and feet!

2. Moisturizers
To make your spray tan last as long as possible, it's critical that you keep your skin hydrated. You should be moisturizing twice daily with a spray tan safe lotion. When choosing a moisturizer, you want to avoid mineral oil, parabens, (bad) alcohols, sulfates, anti-aging ingredients or acids. These chemicals can break down your tan faster. Specific products to avoid are Dove and Bath and Bodyworks.

3. Face and Body Washes
Just like moisturizers, it's important to avoid certain ingredients within your cleansers. Choose a clear, gentle gel wash that is free of parabens, mineral oil, and sulfates. This is not only important for aftercare, but also prepping for your tan. A lot of body washes can leave a barrier on your skin, dry your skin out, throw off your pH, and again break down your tan. Some "feminine cleansers" make a great body wash to prolong your spray tan because they're gentle and pH balanced.

4. Sunscreens
Spray tans do not contain sunscreen so it's crucial that you still wear your SPF. When choosing a sunscreen, go for a lotion form vs an aerosol can. The sprays contain alcohol, which will dry out your skin and cause your spray tan to fade prematurely. It's also best to choose a product that is oil free, as some oils will break down your spray tan. The most important part of choosing a sunscreen, whether you have a spray tan or not, is choosing a product that contains no Oxybenzone. This toxic chemical is known as a carcinogen (promotes the formation of cancer) and can cause irritation to sensitive or acne-prone skin.

5. Protecting Your Spray Tan
After your spray tan you want to avoid transferring solution to clothes, furniture, and other parts of your body. Plan to wear loose, dark clothing. Satin is a great material to wear after your spray tan as it won't absorb the solution like cotton. If you're sleeping in your tan, there's two things you want to keep in mind: solution transfer to sheets and solution transfer to other body parts. If you have white sheets, it's a good idea to switch them out to a dark color, use a towel or blanket on top of the sheets, or use a sheet cover. To avoid transfer to other body parts (example: waking up with tan palms because you slept with your hand on your chest) wear loose, dark, long clothing.
