Xen-Tan Spray Tanning

Get a safe and natural looking tan by using Xen-Tan sunless tanning products.

With spring here, many people are going to start working on their tan. Men and women have become more concerned in the past decade with getting that perfect tan. Even when it is cold out people want to stay tan and many use dangerous tanning beds that can cause cancer. Spray tanning using Xen-Tan sunless tanning products can safely give you that natural looking tan you want for vacation, prom, wedding, or pictures.

Many people think that spray tanning will leave their skin bright orange and give them an unnatural look. Xen-Tan sunless tanning products will give you only the most natural looking tan that is the right shade and tone for your complexion. Many light skinned people are easily burned and more likely to get skin cancer even from natural sunlight. Xen-Tan spray tan allows light skinned people to get that sun kissed skin they want at no risk.

Many times weddings and proms happen during months where natural tans just aren’t an option. It can also take several trips to an unsafe tanning bed to achieve a tan. One session of spray tan will give you a great tan complexion so you can look amazing for wedding or prom pictures. If you get your friends together, many companies who use Xen-Tan products will come on-location for a spray tanning party. This is the perfect way for a bride and her bridesmaids or group of friends to get the perfect tan.

So next time you think about going outside to tan or lay in a tanning bed, think about the health risk you are taking. Whether you need a tan for a special event, want one for vacation, or just want to look great, you should get a spray tan. You can feel confident that you are getting a safe tan with Xen-Tan products.

High school girls will look far and wide to make sure they pick out the perfect dress. With prom season coming up fast, it is time to start looking for that perfect dress so you can be the envy of all the girls at the dance! To help you pick out a dress that is not only fabulous but trendy, we have compiled some of the top dresses for Prom 2013.

1) The Long Dress

This is a classic style that is making a comeback. Celebrities like Taylor Swift are reviving the elegant look and girls should try and find something long for their prom.

2) Backless Dresses

Showing a little skin in the back is sexy but classy. If you do not want to show off too much back, cut-outs are also very hot right now. They show off just enough back to get the sexy style you want without being completely backless.

3) Sequins/ Big Stones

Sequin is one prom dress style that is always in. Also having big stones on a see-through or nude color material is a style popularized by fashion aficionados.

4) Bright Colors

Neon colors are in right now for EVERYTHING. Shoes, shirts, shorts, just about anything looks good in neon. Stand out at your prom with a neon green, yellow, or pink long dress.

5) High-Low Cut Dress

This is for the girl who wants the best of both worlds. The front of the dress shows off a lot of leg, but the back is long and elegant. Another benefit is that the high part of the dress allows the girl to show off her high-heeled shoes.

Special Occasion Hair

If you’ve been invited to or are planning your own special occasion, be it a wedding, bridal shower, girl’s night out or publicity event, you’ll need a creative and distinct hair cut that will fit the theme and make you stand out from the rest of the guests.
