The Bronze Bar Kelowna creates tans that feel curated, confident, and effortless. Every shade is hand-mixed for your undertone, occasion, and skin type — never too orange, never dull. We focus on detail, artistry, and comfort so you leave feeling both luminous and at ease. From pH balancing prep to custom contouring, every tan is engineered to perform and glow naturally under any light.
Most Bronze Bar tans last 7–10 days depending on your prep, skin type, and aftercare. Our solutions are designed to fade like a natural tan — gradually, without patching or peeling. Staying hydrated and moisturizing daily keeps your skin barrier healthy so color lasts longer. Think of it as skin conditioning with benefits — one session gives you a glow that stays camera-ready all week.
Great prep means next-level results. Exfoliate your entire body 24 hours before your tan using a non-oily scrub or mitt to remove dull, dry skin. Shave or wax at least a day before to let pores close. Arrive with clean, product-free skin — no lotions, perfume, or deodorant — so the solution bonds evenly. Wear loose, dark clothing and plan to avoid sweating or showering for 8–12 hours afterward to let your glow develop perfectly.
Your tan continues to develop for several hours after your session, so treat it gently. Wait at least 8–12 hours before your first rinse, or 2–4 hours for rapid tans. Rinse with lukewarm water only — skip soap and pat dry with a towel. Moisturize twice a day using a lightweight, oil-free lotion to keep color even and luminous. Avoid hot baths, saunas, and exfoliating until you’re ready for a refresh. Consistent care keeps your tan smooth and glowing through the week.
We use vegan, cruelty-free, and organic DHA formulas crafted with aloe vera, coconut water, and botanicals. Each product is designed to adapt to your skin’s undertone, giving a believable, golden finish — never orange. Our blends are paraben-free and infused with natural humectants to lock in moisture. The result: a tan that looks radiant, feels soft, and fades like you just got back from somewhere sunny (and exclusive).
Absolutely. Our formulas use naturally derived DHA approved for cosmetic use worldwide, making them safe for sensitive skin and expectant clients. We offer fragrance-free and hypoallergenic options for extra peace of mind. Spray tanning is a gentle alternative to UV exposure — perfect for maintaining color year-round without risk. If you’re pregnant or nursing, we still recommend chatting with your healthcare provider first to feel completely comfortable.
Comfort is key — wear what makes you feel confident. Many clients tan in swimsuits, disposable garments, or nude for full coverage. Our studio is private and professional, so you can choose what works best for you. Afterward, slip into loose, dark clothing and open shoes to prevent any marks while your tan develops. Avoid tight bras, waistbands, or leggings until your first rinse to keep lines clean and your glow flawless.
Yes — we love a reason to celebrate. Our bridal and group packages include trial tans, group discounts, and mobile options for your wedding party or event. We plan each session around your timeline to ensure color is at its most radiant on your big day. Brides usually tan 2–3 days before the ceremony for peak tone and hydration. Gather your girls, pop some bubbly, and turn your tan appointment into the pre-event ritual you’ll actually look forward to.
