## About

Hi, I’m Dana! The face behind Piel Dorada Sunless Studio.
As a medical aesthetician with over 18 years of experience, I’ve seen firsthand the effects that years of sun exposure and tanning beds can have on our skin. And trust me, I was definitely one of those girls who loved tanning beds in the early 2000s!
I still love a beautiful golden tan, but knowing what I know today about skin health, I wanted to offer a safer alternative to UV tanning.
That’s how Piel Dorada, meaning Golden Skin in Spanish, came to life. Inspired by my love for Mexico, sunshine and that beautiful vacation glow, I wanted to bring a little piece of that feeling home.
I specialize in professional, customized airbrush tans, from a soft, natural glow to a rich, deep bronze, tailored to your individual skin tone and desired result.
My goal is simple: to give you beautiful, golden skin without the harmful UV exposure.
Welcome to my little sunless studio!
Golden Skin Without the Sun. ☀️🤎

## FAQ

### What is a sunless tan?

A sunless tan creates the appearance of a bronzed glow without intentional UV exposure. Professional airbrush tanning uses a tanning solution applied to the skin, allowing the color to develop gradually on the skin's surface.

### Will my tan look natural?

A professional tan can be adjusted to complement your skin tone and desired depth, from a subtle glow to a richer bronze. Careful application and thoughtful color selection help create an even, natural-looking result.

### How should I prepare for a spray tan?

Clean, exfoliated skin provides a smooth surface for an even application. It is generally helpful to complete shaving and exfoliation beforehand, then arrive with clean skin free from lotions, oils, and other barriers unless your tanning professional advises otherwise.

### How do I care for my tan afterward?

Following the recommended development guidance and keeping the skin moisturized can help the color fade more evenly. Gentle cleansing, avoiding excessive rubbing, and protecting the skin from UV exposure are also important parts of aftercare.

### Is a sunless tan a substitute for sunscreen?

No, a sunless tan does not protect the skin from ultraviolet radiation. Sunscreen and other sun-safe habits remain important whenever spending time outdoors, even when the skin has a bronzed appearance.
