Hi everyone,
As you already know I am a huge Sunjunkie fan, but it is always good to check out others brands. I was given a free sample of 10% spray tan solution from Wow tan, many thanks to the team from Wow tan, so I decided to do a verses against my beloved Sunjunkie.
In order to provide a fair test and to compare the results, my tanning partner and myself became the test subjects, we both have the same skin tone which made the analysis a lot simpler.
The Results
On application there was only a few subtle differences, Wow tan went on the skin with a brick red tone, compared to that of Sunjunkie, which had an olive tone. The scents of the solutions was quite similar and Wow tan states that their solution contains aloe vera and insect repellent as additional properties, these additions do not compromise the scent of the tan during application.
During the wash off stage, after the allotted 8 hours wait, the tans had both developed nicely. The Sunjunkie tan had developed in to an even olive tan, whilst the Wow tan had developed into an even tan with a hint or red to it, on the fair skin it made it look sun kissed.
The 'life' of the tans was were we noticed the difference. With Sunjunkie the tan lasted nearer 9 days and faded gradually, with no patchy bits noticed. Unfortunately the life of the Wow tan was not as long, it had faded within 5 days and had went quite patchy on its fade off.
Having compared the two brands Sunjunkie is still my preferred choice, yet I would say that the Wow tan provided a good tan initially and would be suited to someone who tans weekly, as they would not be tanning on top of old tan.
