Experience Perfect Results at BlushTan Easton
When Ally Ball moved from Boston to Easton four years ago, she was desperate to find a place that could give her a natural-looking spray tan. “After getting a spray tan from a machine that left my skin bright orange for my engagement, I knew I had to find a solution,” says Ball. From there, BlushTan Easton was born, offering four different types of services (Original, Express, Super Express and CLEAR) and a range of colors to match all skin tones. “Many tanning salons only offer one type of solution in a few different shades. I wanted to make sure we had options that fit everyone's budget, time frame and skin tone,” explains Ball. Many customers opt for the Original solution. “It's affordable and they can come in for a late appointment and simply go to bed, wake up and rinse off to reveal a perfect tan!” she says. And, no, it will not stain your bed sheets! For customers who are on the go, Ball recommends the Express solution: “It develops quickly and still warrants the same beautiful results.” Ball knows getting a spray tan can be an intimidating experience, but she hopes BlushTan Easton can be a comfortable place for everyone: “I want people to trust me and my products to get them the perfect results every time!”
