I recently received a call from our Mazza location asking if I could create some marketing material for a new service they were offering air brush tanning by Bronze - Senza sole. Oh yuck, I thought, we’re going to turn our guests orange, lovely! So, I called Georgette the very dynamic owner of Bronze, and with more passion than a Redskin’s fan, she explained why her product is so very different from a spray booth tan. Her passion swayed me to at least try a service. WOW! Am I glad I did. This tan looks so real even my mother asked me if I’d been on vacation - no joke. Please read on to learn about this great product. I promise no orange.
This is not a fire hose treatment but a customized treatment that is created for your skin tone, pigmentation and body. This sunless system can last up to 10 days and covers skin imperfections such as stretch marks and without streaks. The main ingredient is dihydroxyacetone (DHA) a non-toxic plant derivative that acts with your skin to create a tan without the sun but looks and feels real.
What to know before your treatment: The treatment takes 15 minutes to apply and 10 minutes to dry. To maximize your tan the day of your appointment exfoliate your skin and do not apply moisturizer, which can act as a barrier. Wear dark loose-fitting clothes. You may keep undergarments on during your sessions, but it is not recommended to shower or wet skin for at least 8 hours.
Come in and experience this great tan for a special price of $75 (usually $95) now through the end of September. Or buy a great package of five tans for the price of four. Sadly, this treatment is currently only available at Mazza but we hope to offer it at more locations soon.
