Spray tan colour guide
Which spray tan colour should you choose?
Your ideal shade comes down to your skin tone and how deep you want to go. Fair skin usually suits a light to medium glow, while medium and deeper skin tones can carry a richer, darker tan beautifully. At Sugarcoat, every tan comes in light, medium and dark across four formulas, so there is a natural looking result for everyone. If you are not sure, start lighter and build up over a few sessions.
Four formulas, sixteen ways to glow
Every formula suits all skin types and tones. Choose your depth, light, medium or dark, and let the booth do the rest.

The right shade for your skin tone
Fair skin tends to look most natural with a light to medium glow. A clear or classic formula gives a soft, sun-kissed result that does not look overdone, and you can always build it up over a couple of sessions if you want to go deeper.
Medium skin tones have the most room to play, from a warm golden tan to a richer bronze. Deeper skin tones can carry a dark, dramatic glow beautifully, with the cocoa formula giving the most depth.
Every Sugarcoat formula is buildable, so there is no pressure to get it perfect first time. Start lighter, see how it develops, and go a shade deeper next visit. The booth applies it evenly every time, so the colour always looks natural, never streaky or orange.
Light, medium or dark
Every formula comes in three depths. Pick your shade on the booth screen and let it work.
Light
A soft, natural glow that looks like a few days in the sun. Ideal for fair skin and first timers.
Medium
A warm, golden tan with real colour, the most popular choice for most skin tones.
Dark
A deep, dramatic bronze for a bold result, perfect before an event or for deeper skin tones.
