Airbrush Tanning = Fabulous!






I just wanted to share a few pictures of some celebrities that are, most likely, getting airbrush tanned. These are some perfect examples of what an airbrush tan will look like when skillfully applied.

The most common question i get is "Will I be orange?" and the answer is NO! There are all sorts of different solution brands and levels that we can pick from to make sure that we pick the right one for your natural skin tone.


Our introductory pricing period for airbrush tanning ended as of June 30. Our new pricing is $30 for full body, and a package of 5 full body sessions is $120. Still a great deal, if I can say so myself!

If you have seen some fabulous tans around town, odds are they came to Advanced Body Care to get airbrushed!

I have yet to see a home-applied sunless tan that looks as good as an airbrush tan. It is almost impossible to mimic the flawless and even application of an airbrush tan with the sunless tanning products you can do at home. if you havent tried it yet, you simply must make an appointment! Dont be shy!

EEEK!!





This photo of Monique on the red carpet has been making the rounds on the internet and in the tabloids. As a hair removal professional, I had to share it here with you guys!

Good for her for being confident enough to not care what other people think, I guess. But seriously Monique, please call me and I can take care of that hair before your next red carpet event! And I dont mean braiding it, I mean waxing it!

This is a trend that I really hope doesnt catch on ladies. NOT CUTE!!!

Winter Blah Blah Blahs......

It seemed that we were going to get by with a mild winter this year in Michigan. But, no such luck. It seems that we just cant escape the snow! and its driving me crazy! So, to help with my overall crabbiness, I have been spray tanning myself like crazy. So, even though I wont be taking any more vacations this season, at least I can look like I am!

I am also so excited that alot of teenagers have been coming in for spray tans. Today alone I sprayed 3 girls who are going to their Sadie Hawkins dance tonight. How cute! Back when I was in high school, I would lay in a tanning bed, causing damage that is really starting to catch up with me. How great that teenagers in this day and age have another option. Airbrush Tanning instead of tanning booths will save so many wrinkles and spots on these youngsters when they get older. So keep up the good work, moms and dads, by not letting your teen start that terrible habit!

Glycolic Acid Peels Are Your Skins New BFF!




Glycolic acid is such a wonderful ingredient. Weather you get professional, in-office peels, or just use cleansers and lotions at home that contain glycolic acid, it is amazing the results that one can achieve.

The best way I can explain what it does for your skin is this;
we all have layers of dead and damaged skin cells that accumulate on the surface of our skin. The more this dead skin accumulates, the more dull and lackluster the skin will appear. As we age, the skin cells do not turn over as fast as they once did. So we need to start encouraging the process ourselves.

Of course there are many exfoliating scrubs that you can use to do this, but none of them are as effective as Glycolic Acid. It is also an exfoliant, but does so on a deeper level. Glycolic acid will break the bond, or cement in other words, that holds your dead and damaged skin cells to your living skin cells. By consistently using Glycolic Acid, your skin will improve in many ways. First you will notice that your skin will feel much smoother to the touch. This happens instantly after you recieve your 1st peel. Then, as your treatments progress, you will notice a big improvement in any discolration that you have from the sun. The sun spots will start to fade, the fine lines will appear less noticable, and you will restore that youthful glow to your skin. When your skin has a healthy glow, it appears much more healthy and younger.

We now offer the best skin care line out there that is based on the wonderful benefits of Glycolic Acid, Glytone. We offer peels in percentages ranging from 30% up to 70%. We also carry their at home product line to use between your peels and to maintain your results. And its reasonably priced! Honestly, please stop wasting money on all these department store skin care lines that dont contain any ingredients that will truly change your skin. The Glytone Step-Up kit only costs $88 and it will last you about 3 months.

We also are offering a Series of 6 Glycolic Acid Peels for $360! We will start you with the lowest percentage of acid and work up to higher percentages. We recommend that you space them 2-3 weeks apart for best results.

If your skin is feeling the winter blahs, this is your answer! Please call for an appointment!

As i mentioned in my previous post, we are now offering Airbrush Tanning. Please look at the Airbrush Tanning page on my main website to learn more about the process.

We are offering introductory pricing for this service. For 1 session, its $25. If you want to do a package of sessions, its $100 for 5. So basically, pay in full for 4sessions, and get your 5th free! This is a limited time offer, so please make your appointment soon!

I also wanted to mention that there is still time to get laser hair removal done before summer! if you started your sessions in January, you would have your 3rd session done by May. So start now, and you will thank yourself in the summer when you no longer have to deal with the razor burn, ingrown hairs, and stubble that shaving will cause. We are offering a special package through the end of January, 3 sessions for Bikini Line AND Underarms for only $500! So hurry up and make an appointment, times-a-wastin'!

Time to start bloggin' :)

Well here it is, the beginning of a new year, and a new decade. I am sitting in my office this morning and looking out the window at the first big snow of the season as I'm writing my first blog posting ever! There is a lot of pressure when writing a blog considering I have never considered myself a good writer. So hopefully I can share some good information with you in my future postings! :)

The purpose of this blog is mostly to keep updates on current specials that we will be running at Advanced Body Care, and to talk about new products and services that we are offering.

I am excited to announce that we now offer Airbrush Tanning! This is something that I have been passionate about for a while now. I have been doing airbrush tanning on myself and friends and family for about 8 years. So I have decided to expand this business to offer it here as well. I have an entire treatment room dedicated to Airbrush Tanning, and I am very proud of the setup that I have. Its extremely professional, unlike any airbrush tanning room that I have seen in this area. With the announcement earlier this year by the FDA that they have re-classified tanning beds to the highest carcinogen rating,

people need to seek other options to tan, without harming their skin. So you gotta give it a try! If all of Hollywood does it to keep their skin bronzed and glowing, then you know its gotta be good!

Thanks for checking out my website and blog, and I look forward to a fantastic 2010!
