    Hi !
    My sister is getting married later this year and I've kind of convinced her to get a spray tan for the day as she's very pale and might even look a bit blue in the dress !!! So I've brought her to one place explained that it was her first tan ever, (she's never even put any on herself at home) and a trial for her wedding so could they do a Really NATURAL Tan to see how she likes it.
    Disaster ...... It is too dark and is patchy. Im not giving up though so I'm looking for some recommendations of where else to try, Dublin city centre / West Dublin or North Kildare If anyone can recommend a decent place they've been to , Thanks !

    top image is probably one of best tanns as it is designed for Irish skin tones , it just gives u a lovely natural color smells nice too.

    I've gotten a spray tan in So Belle in Castleknock. They have a deal on at the moment - €15 for a full body spray. The tan they use for this is called True Tan - I'd never heard of it before but was really happy with how it looked. I got the medium colour and had a nice golden tan for close to a week before it was time to remove it. You can get a lighter shade done if the medium is too dark.

    I'm not sure if Clane in Co. Kildare would be too far out for you but Marrons is amazing. I never use fake tan but I have had a spray tan done there a few times and it was perfect and really natural looking every time.

    I would recommened Au Courant or Vita Liberata for a natural looking colour tan. I got Top Image done once and it was really orange

    Sorry to hijack the thread but what was Vita Liberata like in terms of smell and longevity? I'm getting a spray tan done tomorrow and it's one of the ones that's on offer.

    OP, make sure and choose a brand for which there are different choices of depth for light, medium and dark. At least your sister can go with the light one and have something that's more suited to her skin tone, rather than a "one-fits-all" type of job that won't work for her. I'm quite pale, and trust me, it's not a nice experience to be trying to scrub off a too-deep tan the next day having been told that it "works for all skin tones."
