oooohDonna Posted November 21, 2008 #1 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I have not done the before but want to try for going on a 4 day cruise in 2 weeks. Any opinions on doing the spray on, where someone actually sprays you, versus the Mystic, where a machine sprays you? I have options to do either in my area and was thinking I would just do the Mystic tanning booth. Does anyone have experience with these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxYummy Posted November 21, 2008 #2 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Good ? there... I did a mystic tan last week, the only kind I have ever tried. I did a medium bronze and it lasted about 4 days. Although around my hands it had looked like they were dirty(my fault I guess) and I did rub the lotion they have there on them. I'm going this weekend to get a dark bronze to see how that looks on me & if lasting time is the same. I leave for our Cruise Dec 4th and I'm still debating on going the day before to get a mystic or 2 days before. I have a question if anyone else is leaving advice about the spray on tans... Will the saltwater effect these spray on tans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cigal Posted November 22, 2008 #3 Share Posted November 22, 2008 Donna, Check out this thread! http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=727427 Look for the posts by desperatehousewife. They start at post #4. Do everything she says!!! She is the expert on all things spray tan. I recently went to a wedding in Las Vegas. I went to a Mystic tan place the day before I left because I thought I would look better in my dress if I had a little more color. (It worked!...:)) The only thing I would do differently would be to get the darkest shade instead of the middle shade! Anyway - desperatehouswife was TONS of help with the whole tanning thing and I was really pleased with how everything turned out. And we had a blast in Vegas too!!;) YOU RAWK Heather!!:) So go to that thread now. Read. Learn. Be tan! Oh, and have fun on your cruise.....:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted November 22, 2008 #4 Share Posted November 22, 2008 My friend used to do the spray-on tan, but the pool washed some of it off, leaving around her wrists and ankles looking grungy and dirty. If you exfoliate there really well before you get sprayed, it may help the longevity of the tan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone have experience with these? ive done the mystic tan before and it came out great. but my sister did it for a cruise and she ended up with wierd marks. she didnt lift her arms enought and she had white creases in some areas. it was pretty funny. then as the cruise went on the salt water ate away at the "tan" and she had even more weird spots. as much as i love the mystic tans they arent ideal for a cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
