What strength should i pick?
Olive / warm / darker tones.
Any client with yellow undertones (even if pale).
Not recommended for very pink/red undertones. The red in this blend can make the tan look like they have a sunburn.
Clients that want a brown tan compared to a golden color.
This means that the bronzer is violet based to counteract any yellow undertones. The color guide (Bronzer) is not a “traditional” golden brown color. If you are new to violet based solutions, as the spray tan pro you MUST educate yourself on this product and know how to properly explain it to your client. Due to the color guide we recommend it on olive toned clients.
If you choose to use it on fair clients or skin tones with a lot of pink or red undertones PLEASE NOTE that the violet/rosy color bronzer will be very noticeable. It can even look like they are sunburned. You will need to educate the client and advise them it will go away once they shower & the tan is fully developed. The color will turn into a beautiful brown tan.

Extremely fair tones. Will either have a pink/red undertone or very white cool tone. This skin tone can never tan in the sun and will always burn and peel. Be very careful & cautious with these clients if it is your first time spraying them. They can turn unnatural very easily with too high of a %. Better to start lighter and then gradually increase color with future sessions.
Cocoa Beach 8%, Brown 8% and Brown Rapid (If they are porcelain white you might even have to do less solution or close the gun to lessen it to a 6%)
Cocktail 8%
Cocoa Rapid, Brown Rapid or Rapid Cocktail- Leave on 1-1.5 hours to start depending on what the client wants. If they are very nervous just have them rinse off in 1 hour. Remember a good rule of thumb is for the client to be happy with the color. You can always go darker the next time rather than risk turning them unnatural!
Pale tone that easily burns.Tans with difficulty and takes a long time to develop a base tan.
Cocoa Beach 8%, Brown 8% and Brown Rapid (Best on very pink/red/cool undertones)
Dark Chocolate 8% ( On yellow/warm undertones or those that want a browner color)
Cocktail 8% ( Universal for all skin tones and for those that want a color that’s still golden but with a touch of brown.)
Cocoa Rapid, Brown Rapid or Rapid Cocktail- have client leave on 1 hour for light , 2 hours for medium (3 hours max only if you have sprayed them before and 2 hours did not look unnatural)
This is the most common skin type. Can still burn but for the most part tans very easily.
Cocoa Beach 8% or 10%
(If they need to go darker than 10% I recommend starting out with 75/25 ratio of 10 & 12% but be cautious)
Cocktail blend 8% or 10%,
Brown 8% and Brown Rapid
Dark Chocolate 8% or 10% or 12% for darkest (Best on olive/darker skin tones.
If skin tone is very pink I suggest sticking with the Cocoa Beach)

If skin tone is very pink I suggest sticking with the Cocoa Beach)
Rapid, Cocoa Rapid, Brown Rapid or Rapid Cocktail – 1 hour light, 2 hours medium, 3 hours dark
( if this is your first time spraying the client I do not recommend 4 hours until you know that
3 hours did not look unnatural.)
Tans very easily, rarely burns or never burns Skin can be dark brown / olive / Mediterranean / African American.
Any DHA percentage of Cocoa Beach, Dark Chocolate, Brown and Brown Rapid or the Cocktail blend depending on the level of tan they are looking to achieve
In the rapids : Rapid,Cocoa rapid, Brown Rapid or Rapid Cocktail for up to 4 hours for maximum darkness
**If you have a client with yellow /warm undertones I always recommend using the Violet based Rapid or Dark Chocolate violet based solution.
