The Best Compressor For Mobile Airbrush Tanning – A Perfect Fit For Your Kit!

By Katie Quinn Tanning

The Best Compressor For Mobile Airbrush Tanning – A Perfect Fit For Your Kit!

When I first started spray tanning I was surprised at how affordable a setup could be! For in-studio tanning, I use the Iwata Studio Power Jet Lite Compressor:     For mobile tanning, I carry the Paasche DA400R 1/4 HP Compressor, which fits PERFECTLY in my mobile tanning kit (see below):   Don't forget to make sure your compressor comes with an air hose for airbrushing, the longer the better.  The Paasche 10-foot Air Hose has been fantastic for me, and I … [Read more...]

My Favorite Airbrush Gun for Spray Tan Contouring

By Katie Quinn Tanning

My Favorite Airbrush Gun for Spray Tan Contouring

I get a lot of questions about which airbrush gun I use to contour during spray tanning. My favorite is the Iwata Revolution Dual Action 2000 Series, which I've been using since the very beginning.  This gun is nice and light, bottom-feeding, easy to control, and the output is a cone-shaped spray, not flat and fan-shaped like many HVLP systems produce. Since there are no straight lines in contouring, a fan-shaped spray produces an unrealistic, "stenciled" appearance that is hard to work … [Read more...]

You Don’t NEED a Model to Learn Spray Tan Contouring

By Katie Quinn Tanning

You Don’t NEED a Model to Learn Spray Tan Contouring

Remember those T-shirts you'd always see along the boardwalk at the beach, that had a bikini-clad woman's super-ripped body painted on them?  Or the man's ridiculously muscular physique?  You could put the T-shirt on, and it looked like it was your body!  I used to be fascinated by those, and that level of airbrushing ability just blew my mind as a kid!  The artists literally had no guide to work with, only a blank T-shirt canvas.  Imagine the talent that goes into something like that. … [Read more...]
