Why You’re Still Getting Orange Tans (and How to Never Let It Happen Again)

We’ve all seen it—or worse, lived it. The dreaded orange tan.
It’s one of the top fears new clients walk through our doors with—and honestly? Fair enough.
But here’s the good news: an orange tan isn’t inevitable. It’s avoidable, fixable, and 100% preventable when you know what causes it (and how we do things differently).

In this post, we’re breaking down why orange tans happen, what to avoid, and how we guarantee a flawless glow every single time.

1. It’s Not You—It’s the Product

Not all spray tan solutions are created equal. Cheap formulas, outdated ingredients, and the wrong undertone can all result in that oompa-loompa glow.

At Blushaé, we use premium solutions with tailored undertones for each skin tone—because one-shade-fits-all doesn’t work.

2. Technique Matters

Application makes or breaks your tan. Streaks, missed spots, or overloading certain areas? That’s where things go south.

With 16+ years of experience, we’ve mastered precision application—no heavy hands, no missed spots, just an even, natural-looking glow.

3. Prep & Aftercare Are Everything

Using the wrong body wash, skipping exfoliation, or slapping on body oil post-tan can mess with your results.

We guide you through every step—from how to prep before your appointment to exactly how to care for your tan after.

4. Your Skin Tone Deserves Customisation

One of the biggest causes of orange tones? Using the wrong shade for your natural undertone.

We colour-match every client and customise the formula to suit your skin. No guesswork. Just glow.
