Rapid Development Spray Tan
Rapid-rinse spray tan in Santa Cruz, CA. Event-ready in 2–5 hours. The most-booked formula at deSoleil.
Service Description
Rapid Development is the professional Infinity Sun formula designed for clients who need results on a shorter timeline without sacrificing depth or longevity. The solution absorbs quickly, dries fast, and allows the client to control the depth of their tan by controlling the rinse time. A two-hour rinse produces a warm, natural-looking result. A three- to four-hour rinse produces a golden, polished bronze. A four- to five-hour rinse produces the fullest depth the formula offers. Every appointment is private and unhurried. Jana assesses your skin tone and adjusts the formula application accordingly. The result is calibrated to enhance — not to announce itself. KEY INGREDIENTS & THEIR BENEFITS DHA (Dihydroxyacetone) — Plant-derived three-carbon sugar. Reacts with amino acids in the stratum corneum via the Maillard reaction to produce melanoidin chromophores — visible bronze color. Involves no UV radiation and no living tissue. Erythrulose — Naturally occurring keto-sugar from red raspberries. Works alongside DHA via a slower reaction pathway, enriching color over 24–48 hours and producing a natural warm undertone. Extends peak color and improves fade quality. Vitamins A, C, and E — Antioxidant cascade that protects skin cells during DHA development. Vitamin A supports epidermal turnover; Vitamin C brightens and supports collagen; Vitamin E protects lipid membranes and reduces inflammation. Together they improve tan evenness and longevity. Aloe Vera Polysaccharides — High-capacity humectant that binds water to the skin surface, counteracting the hygroscopic effect of unmodified DHA. Reduces tightness post-application and supports an even, smooth development. Botanical Extracts & Emollients — Smooth the skin surface, fill uneven texture, and reduce the rough patches at elbows, knees, and ankles that cause accelerated tan fade. Cosmetic Bronzer — Provides immediate visible color at application — allows Jana to confirm complete, even coverage in real time. Rinses away completely with the first shower, leaving the DHA-developed tan beneath.
