Bodies get natural color through spray tanning without having to suffer through burns, harmful UV radiation, and the sun’s endless collection of Oort Cloud vacation slides. Savor your solar solitude with today's Groupon: for $25, you get a full organic custom airbrush tan with pre-tan prep spray (a $55 value) from Solar Planet. Today's Groupon may be redeemed at Solar Planet locations in Cleveland Park, Georgetown, Tenleytown, Arlington, and Rockville.
Taking aim with their pressurized fine-point airbrush guns, Solar Planet's suntan sharpshooters sling solutions calibrated to provide even skin tone without the risk of burns or UV damage. During an airbrush-tanning session, Solar Planet's technicians work alongside budding bronzers to customize coloration with their range of organic Norvell solutions, ensuring rich tones while preventing orange-hued aberrations that leave bodies looking like sentient traffic cones. After a pre-tan prep spray, skin soaks in a DHA-laden nutrient compound that performs its best sun impersonation, convincing epidermal amino acids to show off their tawny tones with gifts of vitamins, antioxidants, and sonnets about molten plasma.
Solar Planet's airbrush-tanning system colors inside the lines of all canvas shades, working on the entire spectrum of skin tones. The on-site specialists suggest a full exfoliation the night before a tanning session, and recommend that patrons arrive with skin free from perfumes, makeup, or temporary tattoos of John Candy.
Though Solar Planet sometimes offers discounts online, this Groupon is still the best deal around.
