Airbrush Tanning in Portland’s Pearl District
A healthy, golden glow can make your skin look radiant in every season. At Be Smooth, we believe tanning should be safe, natural-looking, and customized for your skin tone. That’s why we offer professional airbrush tanning in Portland, designed to give you a flawless finish without harmful UV rays.
Our team of licensed estheticians uses high-quality formulas and precise techniques to deliver even coverage and long-lasting results. Whether you’re preparing for a wedding, vacation, photoshoot, or simply want to feel sun-kissed all year round, our airbrush tans are tailored to enhance your natural beauty.
Why Choose Airbrush Tanning?
Unlike traditional tanning beds or long hours in the sun, airbrush tanning is a safer, healthier way to achieve the bronzed look you love. With professional application, the color is evenly distributed and can be adjusted to your desired depth, from a subtle glow to a deep, vacation-ready bronze.
At Be Smooth, our estheticians take the time to understand your preferences and guide you through the process. Each tan is applied by hand with attention to detail, ensuring a smooth, streak-free finish that complements your skin.
Customized for Every Skin Tone
No two clients are the same, which is why your airbrush tan should never be one-size-fits-all. We work with advanced formulas that adapt to your skin tone, providing natural color that blends seamlessly. Whether you have fair skin that needs a light golden hue or medium-to-dark tones that can carry a richer bronze, your treatment will be personalized to you.
We also take into account your upcoming plans. If you’re heading to the beach, we can create a deeper glow. If you’re attending a formal event, we’ll keep it soft and elegant. The goal is always to enhance your natural features, never overwhelm them.
What to Expect at Your Appointment
From the moment you step into our Pearl District Spa, we’ll guide you through a relaxing, easy process:
Preparation – We recommend exfoliating the day before and arriving with clean, product-free skin.
Application – Using expert airbrush techniques, we’ll apply the tanning formula evenly across your body.
Drying Time – The formula dries quickly, and you’ll be ready to dress within minutes.
Aftercare Guidance – You’ll leave with simple instructions to help your tan last longer.
Most tans develop within a few hours and last up to 7–10 days with proper care.
Tips for the Best Results
To get the most out of your tan, we recommend a few simple steps:
Exfoliate and moisturize the day before your appointment.
Avoid lotions, deodorants, or perfumes right before your session.
Wear loose, dark clothing afterward to prevent marks.
Stay away from water or sweat until your tan has fully developed.
Keep your skin hydrated daily to extend the life of your glow.
These small steps make a big difference in how your tan looks and how long it lasts.
Safe and Skin-Friendly
At Be Smooth, we care about your skin’s health as much as its beauty. Our tanning formulas are enriched with nourishing ingredients that leave your skin feeling soft, never dry. They’re free from harsh chemicals and designed to work with your body’s natural tone.
Unlike tanning beds, which can damage skin over time, airbrush tanning is a safe alternative for achieving a sun-kissed look. It’s ideal for special occasions or as a regular beauty ritual that helps you feel confident in your skin year-round.

Spray Tan vs. Self-Tan
Many people try self-tanning lotions or sprays at home, only to end up with uneven color or streaks. The difference with professional spray tan services is the expertise of a trained esthetician. We know how to blend formulas evenly, contour naturally, and achieve a look that enhances your skin instead of masking it.
It’s the professional touch that makes the results flawless, and that’s something no at-home kit can truly replicate.
