Sunless Tanning at Le Reve Spa

     Summer is just around the corner, and here at Le Reve Spa we want you looking your finest on Santa Barbara's beaches. Love the look of a fresh tan, but hate sitting out in the Sun for hours to achieve it? Here at Le Reve Spa we offer a sunless spray tan, which consists of a natural formula that leaves you with a healthy glow without all the risks that come with sun tanning.
    Sunless spray tanning consists of a carbohydrate called dihydroxyacetone, also known as DHA, which interacts with your skin's amino acids in order to promote a darker pigmentation. This carbohydrate is usually found in glycerin or other plant material, and is great for promoting that natural and bronzed look. The tan sits on the skin's surface and darkens over the next 24 hours and settles, where it then becomes water-proof and won't wash away. Due to your skin's natural exfoliation process, sunless tanning does last about 1-2 weeks or until your epidermis completely turns over.

Here are some of our favorite benefits of our Sunless Spray Tan:

It's Healthier for your Skin

Get a youthful and healthy glow without the harmful side effects of being exposed to UV rays. Lose the risk of premature aging, sunspots, and the increased risk skin cancer. Healthy skin matters. It is the largest organ in the body, your first-line of defense against infections, and when it’s healthy, you’re happy!

 Enjoy a Streak Free Natural Glow 

With our Sunless tanning, our estheticians take the time and precision to make sure the solution is applied to your skin beautifully. The solution used only darkens to the natural pigments that your skin would be
able to naturally tan to, meaning you won't leave looking more orange than tan

Hydrating for the Skin

We utilize an alcohol-free spray tan solution, that instead of drying out your skin it deeply, it hydrates it. Hydrating the body is vital for one's health, so make sure to never forget the skin. We not only make the skin look good, but feel good as well.

Dos and Don'ts of a Spray Tan:
  • DO exfoliate before your tan
  • DON'T apply makeup, deodorant, or moisturizer before your tan
  • DO wear loose fitting clothes to your appointment 
  • DON'T use products that will strip your skin
  • DO keep your skin hydrated
  • DON'T shower right after your tan
We offer a few different services when it comes to our Sunless Spray Tans.
  • Full Body
  • Legs
  • Full Body Glow + Herbal Body Polish (skip exfoliating, we do it for you)
Overall, our goal is to make you feel confident and beautiful in your skin, however that may be. Remember that Summer is almost here, so come to Le Reve Spa to escape the Winter Blues and see the warmth return to your skin. 

Stay relaxed beautiful
