First Trimester Pregnancy Emergency Kit!

By Katie Quinn Tanning

First Trimester Pregnancy Emergency Kit!

These are a few of my favorite things...to have had during my first trimester!  I really can't complain, my first trimester was EASY compared to the stories that I've been hearing from my friends. I didn't throw up once, but I had plenty of nausea to go around, and I had a lot of trouble sleeping.  I wasn't hungry for ANYTHING.  Ever. Fortunately, I had these wonderful things to keep me comfortable, and I highly recommend them all to ANYONE you know who has just started her pregnancy … [Read more...]

Spray Tan Faux Pas: Breastfeeding and Spray Tanning

By Katie Quinn Tanning

Spray Tan Faux Pas:  Breastfeeding and Spray Tanning

Made you laugh!  Our sources tell us this is NOT from a spray tan, but we still think it's funny!  It certainly stirs up an important question:  What should nursing mothers do when it comes to spray tanning? We encourage nursing mothers to wear pasties while spray tanning - our favorites are by Leg Avenue: If a little more coverage is needed, we recommend wearing a bikini top, and let your spray tan tech know that you'd like the strap lines not to show.  Voila...no mess, no … [Read more...]

Can Pregnant or Nursing Mothers get a spray tan? Frequently Asked Questions About Sunless Tanning

By Katie Quinn Tanning

Can Pregnant or Nursing Mothers get a spray tan? Frequently Asked Questions About Sunless Tanning

In most cases it is safe to airbrush tan if you are pregnant or nursing. However, it is best to check with your doctor before tanning. The active ingredient (DHA) is proven not to enter the blood stream and has been used in cosmetics since 1960. No problems have ever been reported concerning DHA penetrating the skin, or causing problems during pregnancy. We recommend nursing mothers wear adhesive petals or a bathing suit top while tanning. Nose filters and disposable undergarments are available … [Read more...]

It’s Almost Summer Time – Is Your Skin Ready for the Beach? by Orange County’s Kona Tanning Company

By Katie Quinn Tanning

We've been spray tanning in Orange County and Los Angeles since 2005, and the question we hear most often is, "HOW DOES AIRBRUSH TANNING WORK?"The active ingredient in virtually all sunless tanning formulas is DHA (dihydroxyacetone), a carbohydrate (monosaccharide sugar) compound approved by the FDA for use in externally applied sunless tanning solutions. DHA is usually derived from a vegetable source like beets or sugar cane. When DHA is applied to the skin, it causes a harmless chemical … [Read more...]

Kona Katie’s Ode To C-Section Scars And Stretch Marks

I wanted to post this in time for Mother's Day, but better late than never! For all the moms who tan with me, you should know something about those self-proclaimed "embarrassing" scars you get from having a baby...from a non-mom's point of view. I don't know if I speak for all beauty professionals, but when I see a c-section scar or anything that identifies you as a mother, I'm envious! In all honesty, here's what's going through my mind when I'm airbrushing a mother: I almost never … [Read more...]
