Yemaya Spa’s Spray Tan Special

Go golden for less thanks to this exclusive CapeTownMagazine.com deal

Gone are the days when it took an entire summer season, a healthy dose of baby oil and one of those retro reflectors to develop that sun-kissed, just-off-the-beach look. Now, thanks to the advent of spray tan, it’s possible to come away with that bronzed babe or browned pool boy glow in just 10 minutes or less.

And lucky for Mother City-ites, Sea Point’s luxurious Yemaya Spa & Hair salon (it recently moved from a Mouille Point location) is knocking down its sunless tanning prices exclusively for our readers. Simply name-drop CapeTownMagazine.com when booking and you’ll save R50 on the full-body experience – a discount that brings the price down from R350 to R300 (the special is valid from the start of February to the end of June 2014).

The plush urban sanctuary offers clients three different colour tones to choose from, so you can opt to emerge looking like a golden David Hasselhoff (during his Baywatch days), an olive-skinned Penélope Cruz or simply something in between (please, just no Magdas from There’s Something About Mary).

Plus, since professionally trained therapists administer the tanning solution in a stand-up booth, you can rest assured that you’ll come away with an even, non-streaky finish (from your top to your naughty bits to your toes). Not to mention, Brilliant Tan, Yemaya’s product of choice, is safe, oil and alcohol free, hypoallergenic and not tested on animals.

Keep in mind, the spray tan usually lasts between 8 and 12 days; though, the house of beauty has a few maintenance lotions and salves that can prolong the glow. So, if you’re desperate to go from pale to radiant in light of a fast-approaching special occasion, schedule a session accordingly. And do note, to get the full effect of the spray tan, you should only shower eight hours after application.

Otherwise, if you’re simply set on avoiding the harmful UVA and UVB rays that cause ageing and skin cancer, more power to you. We’re happy to be able to make your healthier lifestyle less costly.

And so on that note, next time you’re thinking of baking under that South African hole in the ozone layer, remember this little special.
