Since it’s super cold, and winter, I still have needs to get a tan at times – lol. Enter SummerBreeze in Camarillo. I checked out thier website and called for more information on the airbrush tan. The staff was super friendly, informative, AND thier full body airbrush tan is only $35 bucks! Compared to LA’s $75 price average, it’s a steal.
I went in prior to my appointment to find out what I should do to prepare for my session and was told to be sure to exfoliate, shave, and wear loose clothing (read:no bra) afterwards – the girls told me to make a late appointment and wear my pajamas. The solution smells pretty good, is moisturizing and the next day looks like clay before you shower it off. The tan lasts for about 2 days, and then starts to get splotchy (especially on me around the sides of my neck and my upper thighs).
Aside from the splotchyness, I think that I may consider going on a more regular basis during the summer months since the girls who apply the solution are really good at making sure they get all your spots like under your arms and in between your shoulderblades – two particularly difficult places to get an even tone in the generic Mystic Tan booth.
some other pricing options at summer breeze:
half body (from your waist up) is $20.00
full body is $35.00
membership (up to 6 maximum applications per month) is $75.00
I got this message on myspace and thought it a fabulous idea, so share and share alike!

I decided to try the pricey Clarin’s formula…partly because it was a completely new brand and also to debunk the myth that if a product is labeled in a different exotic language and is in the higher price scale, then it will work better. So after a good 1 month long run with Clarin’s, I have to say I am not really impressed. The lotion is light, but at night, I almost feel as if my skin needs to be more immersed in moisture to get through the night – especially during the winter. Another thing that I am not too fond of is that it smells so very perfumy – kind of like the old women at church. Soooo not uber-hip organic botanical that makes me feel like I am at a resort spa
After 2 months of semi-regular use, I still don’t see any significant benefits to intrigue me to purchase Clarins products in the future. 2 thumbs down!
