I had an airbrush tan a couple days ago and wow! I have VERY fair, cool-toned skin, and they have products to match different skin tones. Most sunless tanning products look very orangey on me, but the color she used on me looks totally natural and came out so pretty (and glowing!). The glow accentuates my tattoos…
