Here's a testimonial....from me....who's been doing the spraying for the last 8 months but rarely being sprayed myself!! I've just been on my first holiday since opening the business and can now comment with authority on Nouvatan and how it performed on a pool/beach holiday abroad! I have never been too sure what to say when asked how long it will last abroad and have always warned clients that depending on the type of holiday and activities it may not last too long. So... I was sprayed last Sunday 28th with 12% before heading out to Gran Canaria. If I'm honest I had to shower it off a bit soon, after about 4 hours, so wasn't too hopeful about the depth of colour but it was just perfect. The weather was really disappointing at first so I was really grateful to have my tan at the outset and would recommend that to anyone no matter what the weather is doing. I felt fantastic and people were always asking me how long I'd been there. I did all of the usual holiday things over the week.....swam in both the pool and the sea, went on a boat trip, covered myself in suncream (I tried both Ambre Solaire and Nivea and both had no impact whatsoever on my Nouvatan) and I also obviously showered once or twice every day. Despite all of this I have returned home sporting both Nouvatan and a suntan but my Nouvatan has faded so beautifully that I can hardly tell where it is or it isn't.....I'm just brown and evenly brown....no patches AT ALL! It's by far and away the best spray tan I have ever had.
