Who doesn’t love the perfect tan? Everything just looks and feels so much better with a healthy, golden glow! With the warmer weather months approaching, many of us will be spending countless hours in the sun… Sunbathing is one of my most favorite pastimes. Too much time in the sun however, or over-exposure to UV rays in tanning beds, can cause sunburn, premature aging and is one of the leading causes of skin cancer, which is one of the most prevalent forms of cancers in the U.S. Because of these harmful risks, many people like myself have turned to spray tanning as a healthier tanning alternative.
Spray tanning is one of the most efficient ways to get the bronzed glow you want, without the harmful effects of UV sun exposure and tanning beds. However, not all spray tans are created equally. I recently had the honor of connecting with celebrity tanner Norma Wesolowski, founder of Sunless Beauty Tans, who really educated me on the importance of choosing a spray tan that is healthy and non-toxic. Most spray tanning products contain hazardous, cancer-causing chemicals…who knew?!
When Norma first started working as a technician in the spray tanning industry, she would spray multiple clients a day which would leave her feeling sick, experiencing dizziness and watery eyes. Being a health conscious individual, Norma was inspired to create her own line of products that are totally natural, organic and environmentally friendly! Sunless Beauty Products contain no parabens or formaldehydes, are vegan, and are gluten and cruelty free. “There are no shortcuts…I have a certain level of integrity and responsibility as a human being to do the right thing.” Sunless Beauty Products, because of their all-natural ingredients, are also Prop 65 compliant. This Toxic Enforcement Act requires the State of California to publish a list of chemicals known to cause cancer or birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Sunless Beauty Organic and All Natural Product Line
“Most spray tanning solutions contain toxic chemicals but refuse to change the compounds or ingredients because it’s all about the bottomline as opposed to consumer health.”
There are currently two Sunless Beauty locations in the Los Angeles area, one in Torrance and the newest location which just opened this past January in Beverly Hills. You can visit either location or the Sunless Beauty Pro Team offers mobile services that provide in-home customized tanning for personal use, weddings and special events. The pricing is super reasonable and the service unmatched.

If you do not live in the Los Angeles area, the Celestial Body Self Tanning Gel is available for purchase on the Sunless Beauty site. I had the opportunity to try the Celestial Body Gel a couple of nights ago and the results were incredible…A natural looking, streak-free tan with no odor… and the best part… all natural ingredients! This is definitely my new go-to self tanning product.
Norma and the Sunless Beauty Pro Team are certified professionals who have a celebrity clientele following and have tanned models for countless pageants, LA Swim Week, LA Style Week, and the 15 Shades of Pink Fashion Show benefiting cancer awareness to name just a few.

Sunless Beauty Services and Products are unmatched as the love and integrity behind this company is so evident. This line was created to enhance one’s beauty, but more importantly with health and well-being in consideration. In Norma’s words, “I want to make the world a better place and by planting my little seed in the Beauty Industry, I hope to create more momentum towards a more conscious lifestyle.”

Stephanie great article! Thank you so much! Love you! Megyn it is true!
*It is true that the feeling is mutual is what I meant
Hi Steph, I want to thank you for providing information on a healthy alternative to sunless tanning. I’m never as comfortable as when I have a tan, but don’t like all the chemicals they use, so I just don’t use them. These products look great. This is a perfect option. I’m going to check out the website and go for a spray tan in Beverly Hills!! I love your site and am sending a warm hug.
