I stock this for all my Spray Tan Clients. Its an absolute must. It took me a while to listen to Kylie as i thought it would stop clients getting a spray tan but quite the opposite. They come more often as they now have a great product to prperly maintain their tan

This Gradual tan lotion is truly the best I have used. It is nothing like a drugstore product. I have light to mid skin and two light coats over 2 days gives me a lovely color. I then top up every 2 or 3 days
