I need to find spray on tanning/airbrush place in Des Moines. Because I will be in a wedding this summer. Do you have any recommendations?

I'm looking into:

  1. I don't know anything about tanning, but I can tell you that Visual Impact has been around for a long time. So, it must provide decent service.

    Sorry I couldn't be more help.


  2. Actually, Visual Impact is the highest-rated (4 out of 5 stars) on AskCity, so it sounds like a good bet.

    Last year, I traveled out of town to be in a wedding, and wanted spray tanning for the strapless dress I was to wear.  I would suggest that you go do the airbrush/sunless tanning at a shop near your home at least once in the weeks before you go.  That way, you will know what the results will be like, and how it will "wear" on you. You'll also have the leisure to see how it looks with your outfit (does it cover any "farmer's tan" on the upper arms sufficiently?, any strap marks you may have?, does it go under the arms as you'd hoped?), and also to see how the results will look in photographs BEFORE you're heading off to the ceremony!  When I tried it at a local shop, the week before, we found that my face got tons of really dark color from a very light application when compared with the rest of my body, so I knew to have the shop at the wedding city to tone it down in that area the day before the wedding.
