Custom Spray Tan Services & Pricing
Every tan at Sunkiss Studios begins the same way: a consultation, a custom-blend formula mixed for your undertone, and an artist — never a machine — airbrushing it pass by pass. Choose your session below, then layer on add-ons, bring a friend, or take the studio anywhere in the DC metro.
Best value: Five Signature Tans — $69 each ($345 for 5 · save $50) when you book your session.
Signature Custom · $79
What is the Signature Custom spray tan?
The tan everything else is built on. Your undertone and depth get matched in person and hand-applied by an artist — never a booth, never a one-size cartridge — then you rinse on your own schedule for a finish that reads as skin, not spray.
The Signature Custom is our flagship 30-minute airbrush session in Falls Church. Your artist consults on your undertone, event timeline, and depth preference, hand-blends a formula for your skin, then applies it pass by pass. A finishing powder sets the tan so you leave dry, even, and never orange. $79 per session.
- Undertone consultation and shade matching
- Custom-blend formula mixed for your skin
- pH-balancing prep spray
- Hand-airbrushed application by an artist
- Finishing powder to set the glow
- About 30 minutes, start to finish
Always included — $18 of it, free. Post Spray finish and your Aftercare Sticker set come with every session. We don’t sell them separately and we don’t quietly leave them out.
Rapid Signature · $99
How does the Rapid Signature spray tan work?
The same custom blend, reformulated to develop fast — shower in just 2–4 hours instead of sleeping in it, and be event-ready the same day. Built for the night before the wedding, the morning of the flight, and anyone who is not waiting overnight to see themselves.
The Rapid Signature is the same custom consultation and hand-blended airbrush application as our Signature session, built on a faster-rinse professional solution. Instead of waiting overnight, you shower in 2 to 4 hours — rinse at 2 for a sunlit glow, closer to 4 for a deeper bronze. $99 per session.
- Everything in the Signature Custom
- Faster-rinse professional solution
- Shower in 2–4 hours — you control the depth
- Ideal before same-day dinners, galas, and flights
Always included — $18 of it, free. Post Spray finish and your Aftercare Sticker set come with every session. We don’t sell them separately and we don’t quietly leave them out.
Photo-Ready Contour · $119
What is the Photo-Ready Contour session?
Our top tier, built for cameras. Everything in the Signature, plus hand-airbrushed definition — collarbones, abs, arms and legs sculpted with a deeper blend layered over your base — so you photograph leaner and more defined from every angle, not just the flattering one.
Photo-Ready Contour is our 45-minute artistry session: a full custom spray tan finished with hand-airbrushed definition along the face and body — cheekbones, collarbones, arms, and abs. Think of it as sculpting with light and shadow, calibrated to how cameras read skin. $119 per session.
- Everything in the Signature Custom
- Hand-airbrushed face and body definition
- Contour mapped to your features, not a stencil
- About 45 minutes with your artist
The one brides, competitors and anyone with a photographer books.
Always included — $18 of it, free. Post Spray finish and your Aftercare Sticker set come with every session. We don’t sell them separately and we don’t quietly leave them out.
Brazilian Tan · $99 New
What is the Brazilian spray tan?
A full-body, completely tan-line-free finish — nothing left pale where a strap, a waistband or a bikini line sat. Applied fully bare in a private suite by the same artist with the same custom blend, so the color runs seamless from shoulder to ankle.
Everything in the Signature Custom — the consultation, the blend matched to your undertone, the hand-airbrushed application — taken fully bare so nothing interrupts the color. Your artist works alone behind a locked door, disposables are provided, and you set the pace. $99 per session.
- Everything in the Signature Custom
- Seamless, tan-line-free coverage shoulder to ankle
- Private suite, one artist, door locked
- Disposables provided · you set the pace
Private suite, one artist, door locked, disposables provided.

Finishing Touches
Which spray tan add-ons can I choose?
Any session can be tailored with five add-ons: a clear solution with no cosmetic bronzer, a hydration finish that locks in moisture and slows fading, an additional pass for a deeper final shade, face contour for extra definition, and scent personalization so your tan smells like you chose it. Tell your artist at booking or during your consultation.
| Add-on | Price | Why you would want it |
|---|---|---|
| Clear solution | +$15 | No instant cosmetic bronzer — nothing transfers to clothes or sheets while you develop |
| Hydration finish | +$15 | A moisture-locking final layer that extends your fade toward the 10-day mark |
| Additional pass | +$20 | A second full application pass for a noticeably deeper final shade |
| Face contour | +$12 | Hand-airbrushed cheekbone and jawline definition on any session |
| Scent personalization | +$5 | Choose the fragrance your solution develops with |

Good to Know
Spray tan questions, answered
How long does a custom spray tan last?
A Sunkiss Studios custom spray tan typically lasts 7 to 10 days. Because each formula is hand-blended for your undertone and applied by an artist rather than a booth, it fades evenly instead of going patchy. Daily moisturizing, pat-drying after showers, and our Hydration Finish add-on all stretch the glow toward the 10-day mark.
How far before an event should I book my spray tan?
Book your session 24 to 48 hours before your event so the color fully develops and any first rinse is behind you. For same-day events, choose the Rapid Signature — you can shower in as little as 2 to 4 hours. Brides should start with a trial tan 4 to 6 weeks out through our Bride Plan.
How should I prepare for a spray tan appointment?
Shower, exfoliate, and shave or wax at least 24 hours before your session, then arrive with clean, bare skin — no lotion, deodorant, oils, or makeup. Wear loose, dark clothing and sandals for the ride home. Your artist handles the rest, including a pH-balancing prep spray before your custom blend is applied.
Will a custom spray tan look orange?
No. Orange tones come from one-size-fits-all booth solutions applied without regard to your skin. At Sunkiss Studios in Falls Church, your artist matches the formula to your undertone — fair, olive, or deep — and controls every pass by hand, so the result reads as a believable, golden version of your own skin.
