the only tip that I can give is to spray a very thin and even coat, never use the A B that you mention

Cancel the order and pay to have it done. If that stuff is not applied evanly it will look gastly!

What Redanner said....

And, BIG problems to consider:
1) Turning ORANGE. Many of the self tanners have to be done so-many-days ahead and JUST RIGHT or you'll go Perris Hilton Orange.
2) Paint transfer to Dress. It can happen if you don't have enough experience.
3) Do you REALLLLLY want to get in a Bride's Path of Destruction????

You need a large fan spray gun like the Iwata G6 or such. An "art" airbrush just won't do an even, full body spray.

Best bet: hire a Makeup Artist that does bride makeup.

thanks for the advice guys the reson i asked is i had my doubs about it although this link makes it look easy even the little video..the siensonal is supposed to be none orange and streak free.. they have used the spray cans before and didnt like it..i guess they just saw airbrushes being used an assumed mine would do it...i have an auto gun that came with my compressor would that do it(out of curiousity) then i can i tell them to do each other an leave me out of it lol.. dont fancy being on the end of a woman scorned lol..

I bought tan-in-a bottle from Dixie , I use it on myself without any streaks or orange tint, maybe going to your hair salon will save-face

Self-tanners with a certain ingredient are what can turn people Orange.
Stuff that's been sitting on the shelf can expire and cause a color shift too.

Many a model has been covered in foundation at a shoot in order to even out skin tone and cover skin imperfections.

My kit has alcohol based skin tone in Fairest, Fair, Medium, Dark and Darkest for body coverage. Better staying power than tradional liquid foundation. I have total control over the amount of coverge.

For face, I'll go water based airbrush make up.
Kit contains 2 sets of skintone in Yellow and Red series, a Primary color set, a Contour and Highlight set, and a Shimmer set.
