Aside from the health risks of sun bathing, time is also an issue in today’s fast paced world. Not everyone has enough free time to lie about under the sun getting a tan. Even if they did, the challenge of trying to get an even tan without blotches and peeling can make sun bathing a poor alternative to salon treatments. Of course the sun dries out the skin as well which is hardly appealing to those trying to improve their appearance.

Of course there are other alternatives. Solariums have the advantage of being more flexible, as they can still be used on overcast and rainy days, and even at night. But they still take time, and recently they have been receiving some negative press.

‘DIY’ spray on tans are another option for consumers, but one that has its limitations. One of the major challenges with home spray tan treatments is trying to get an even coverage, particularly in those hard to reach places. Getting a good tan from a ‘DIY’ product can take some practice, and ideally involves a second person to spray those tricky areas. Products like our SunFX White Out do make the job easier as the can is designed to spray on virtually any angle.

So given the limitations of sunbathing, solariums and ‘DIY’ home tanning treatments, it’s easy to see why SunFX spray tans have become so popular and why so many salons are now finding spray tanning to be a major source of their annual income.

A client receiving a SunFX spray tan can be in and out in just 5 minutes. A far cry from the alternatives. There is a huge range of solutions available, allowing every client to achieve the perfect tan. Tans go on evenly and last for days, particularly when used with our tan extenders. Best of all, SunFX spray tans look completely natural. Why would your clients want to spend hours in the sun when they can achieve a better result in just 5 minutes in your salon?

The SunFX spray tanning systems are designed specifically for applying spray tans. Our solutions are 100% all natural, containing no chemicals, alcohols or preservatives, which is a big selling point for so many of our regular clients. SunFX systems also offer excellent return on investment, with as many as 25 applications possible from just one bottle of tanning solution.

So in today’s high paced, health conscious world, it pays to be able to offer your clients a fast, safe and healthy tanning alternative. Call us today and let us show you the advantages of SunFX, the World’s number one spray-on tanning company.

Well straight away it needs to be pointed out that SunFX products contain NO Parabens. As a company we have some serious doubts about parabens and therefore decided that we would never use parabens in our products.

So what are parabens you might ask?

Parabens are preservatives that are extensively used in many cosmetics and beauty products. They have been around for many years, but it has only been fairly recently that people have started to take notice of them.

There has been little hard evidence to prove any of the theories that have been tossed around in relation to parabens. Whilst there are suspicions, not enough scientific studies have been done to prove any of them conclusively. Therefore comments made in this article should only be taken as observations and opinions, not as hard evidence one way or the other.

That being said, there is growing suspicion in the scientific community that products containing parabens may indeed have an adverse effect on our health. This is mainly due to the fact that parabens are considered to be estrogenic, meaning that they can behave like estrogens, or can be mistaken by the body to actually be estrogens. Excessive estrogen build up can result in fluid retention and weight gain, but more significantly, they can also interfere with the hormonal system.

This disruption to the hormonal system is thought to impact adversely on fertility, particularly amongst developing male foetuses when paraben rich cosmetics are used by pregnant mothers. There is also some suspicion that parabens may in the future be found to cause some forms of cancer, in particular breast cancer.

Parabens have also been suspected of causing allergic reactions and possibly even dermatitis. It is often recommended that people with particularly sensitive skin should avoid using any products that contain parabens.

So whilst currently there seems to be a lack of scientific evidence to fully support these theories, at SunFX we don’t believe that it’s worth taking any chances. For that reason, we are committed to not using parabens in our products. Of course this benefits your business, particularly as consumers become more aware of the potential risks of parabens. By stocking SunFX products, you can safely tell your clients that the SunFX products that they are purchasing from you are free from parabens.

But fashion and beauty can be fickle things. What is fashionable, and therefore considered beautiful one day, can be dated and out of vogue the next. However there is one thing that has remained desirable and that is a healthy looking natural tan.

It has been many, many years since pale white skin was desirable. In the last 30 years or more tanned skin has been considered a must have for men and women alike. Phrases such as ‘Bronzed and beautiful’ and ‘Tanned and terrific’ have become part of our everyday language.

It therefore stands to reason that clients entering a beauty salon or day spa, would at the very least expect to be able to receive a 100% natural looking tan that is quick, and easy to achieve. People simply don’t have time to lie around in the sun all day trying to become bronzed, and solariums whilst faster, are still not fast enough. And whilst you could sell them ‘DIY’ products, the fact of the matter is they want you to do it for them. Besides, it’s more profitable for you to provide this service. They will still ultimately purchase more products from you to extend the life of their tan anyway.

And whilst there are a number of spray tanning systems available, most are overpriced pieces of glorified hardware equipment that make a mess and waste solution.

SunFX systems however, are purpose built for the spray tanning industry. With award winning equipment and 100% all natural tanning solutions, it’s easy to see why more and more salons and spas are turning to SunFX. No mess, little to no wastage and truly excellent results are all hallmarks of the SunFX brand.

So if you truly do offer beauty treatments, then you simply can’t afford to not offer spray tanning as a service to your clientele. And when it comes to spray tanning, nobody does it better than SunFX. So call us today and let us help you in making your clients truly beautiful.
