MsTania said: I'd forgotten to finish my profile, new to this as you can see lol.. I have the TS50 set it to 4 (anything lower than this and I can barely see it when i'm testing it on paper), i spray vertically and use about 40mls per tan (sometimes less if the person is petite) which i thought was ok? My tent isn't too bad unless I do a few in a row and then it does have some tan on the bottom and on the back of it. I do find the masks horrible to wear, makes my face hot and now you mention it yes it's hard to breath. I got a pack of disposables from the internet, can you recommend any?



tantastic can i ask another question - alot of the people i''ve put 12% on have said it's light even though it's supposed to be a medium colour, have you come accross this? I'm thinking i'll be mainly using 14% at this rate which I thought was strange as this is for darker skin tones? Click to expand...

Funny you should ask this, I posted on here a few weeks ago about exactly the same thing 12% not coming out dark enough, almost the same color as an 8%. I got in touch with the company and spoke to a very helpful lady I think her name was Francesca ( might be wrong though) There seemed to be nothing on their end which could account for it. In the end they said it was probably because the bottle I was using was nearly 5 months old and might have reached the end of it's shelf life. I bought it in December and didn't tan anyone with it until the summer so not much I could do. They did send me out a free sample to try as I told her I was not happy buying another liter of 12% without being sure it would be back to what I expect it to be. The sample seems ok but I am now a bit dubious about this color, how can you be sure until its too late if you know what I mean. 12% was my most popular color and looked fabulous until it all went light.For facemasks I would suggest getting some from one of the spraytan suppliers. There are some nice ones out there that should help with your breathing. I dont use any but I am sure some geeks that do will come along soon and advise you on which would be the best
