Custom Spray Tanning
In Olympia
30 – 45 min
Color Matched
UV Free
Skin Safe
A custom airbrush tan that looks like your skin, just warmer and more even. Our licensed estheticians match the color to your skin tone and factor in your skincare routine so it develops beautifully every time.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
Every spray tan at Pausa is built around your skin, not a one size fits all formula. Here’s what to expect from consultation to glow.
Skin Consultation and Shade Selection
We start by asking about your skin type, your skincare routine, and the look you’re going for. If you use retinol, AHAs, or prescription treatments, we factor that into how DHA will develop on your skin. Then we select a shade that suits your natural skin tone, not too light to be invisible and not so deep it looks applied.
Airbrush Application
We apply the tanning solution evenly across the body using an airbrush system, working from the top down and blending carefully at the elbows, knees, ankles, hands, and hairline where uneven color is most noticeable. A barrier cream protects dry areas from absorbing too much solution. The whole application takes 15 to 20 minutes.
Development and Aftercare Guidance
DHA continues developing on the skin for the next eight hours, so we send you home in loose dark clothing with clear guidance on what to avoid. No showering, sweating, or getting the skin wet for at least eight hours. After your first rinse, the true color emerges and lasts seven to ten days. We’ll also tell you exactly which skincare products to use and avoid between appointments so your tan fades evenly instead of patchily.
WHO IT’S FOR
A streak-free, natural looking tan that’s custom blended for your skin and lasts seven to ten days, with no UV, no sun damage, and no orange.
A great spray tan starts before the solution touches your skin. Your skincare routine, hydration, and skin texture all affect how the color develops. Our estheticians check your routine, match a shade to your skin tone, and apply it by hand so it looks natural and fades evenly.

Behind Your Glow
HydroDermabrasion gently exfoliates dead skin cells, congestion, and buildup while vacuum extraction clears impurities from the pores. This step helps treat dullness, clogged pores, and uneven texture, leaving the skin smoother, clearer, and more refreshed.
A customized serum infusion delivers targeted ingredients deep into the skin to treat concerns like dehydration, fine lines, acne, or uneven tone. This step helps nourish, plump, and restore the skin for a healthier, more radiant glow.
Positive Pulse Pressure Facial Sculpting stimulates facial muscles and collagen production to help improve skin firmness and definition. This treatment helps lift, tighten, and smooth the appearance of fine lines while enhancing natural facial contours.
Bi-Polar RF technology uses gentle heat to stimulate collagen and elastin deep within the skin. This step helps improve skin laxity, fine lines, and loss of firmness, leaving the complexion tighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking.
Facial ultrasound helps deeply infuse hydration and active ingredients into the skin for long-lasting moisture and glow. It also helps improve the appearance of fine lines, dehydration, and skin laxity on the face, neck, and décolleté.
From Arrival To Aftercare
PREPARATION
Arrive with clean skin if possible, and avoid retinol, exfoliants, acne medications, waxing, tanning, or strong active ingredients for at least 48 hours before your appointment. Let your esthetician know about any recent treatments, medications, sunburn, or skin changes so your facial can be customized safely.
Your only job is to relax, breathe, and let your skin reset. You may feel light suction, warmth, cooling hydration, or gentle pressure, but let your esthetician know if anything feels uncomfortable so we can adjust the treatment for you.
Keep your skin calm, hydrated, and protected for the next 24–48 hours by avoiding exfoliants, retinol, heavy sweating, saunas, waxing, and direct sun. Use your recommended home regimen, especially gentle cleanser, moisturizer, and SPF, to maintain your glow and support longer-lasting results.
Your Glow Without the Sun Damage.
A great spray tan starts before the solution ever touches your skin. The color of a spray tan develops by reacting with the outer layer of your skin, which means skin texture, hydration, and the products you use all affect how the result looks and how long it lasts.
At Pausa, our estheticians take a few minutes before every appointment to understand your skin and your routine. If you use retinol, exfoliating acids, or prescription treatments, let us know. It’s not to turn you away, but to make sure your tan develops evenly and fades gracefully. Then we choose a shade that suits your actual skin tone and apply it by hand for a result that looks like it belongs on you.

PREPARATION
From Arrival
To Aftercare
Stop using retinoids, exfoliating acids, and active skincare products at least 6 days before your appointment. Come with clean skin and avoid picking or extracting at home, it can increase inflammation and make your session less effective. Write down any products you're currently using and your skin goals so your esthetician can build the right plan from day one.
Your esthetician will analyze your skin and customize every step based on what your skin needs that day. Expect targeted cleansing, professional extractions, and corrective products designed to clear and calm. This isn't a relaxation facial, it's a working session. Communicate openly about sensitivity or discomfort so adjustments can be made in real time.
Avoid makeup, direct sun, heat, and strenuous activity for at least 48 hours to let your skin heal properly. Follow your prescribed homecare routine exactly. The products your esthetician recommends are part of the treatment, not optional. Your skin may purge initially, which is normal and expected as breakouts clear from deeper layers.

FAQs
Common Hydrofacial Questions
A hydrofacial is a noninvasive facial treatment that can address fine lines and wrinkles, dehydration, dull or saggy skin, clogged pores, acne, and blackheads in just one treatment. This facial includes a hydrodermabrasion machine that exfoliates, extracts, and infuses. This treatment has 3 tiers including different modalities for specific skin goals: such as red light therapy, microcurrent, oxygen therapy, and more. Though it is most commonly done on the face, it can be used universally anywhere on the body including the scalp to assist in hair and scalp health.
A hydrofacial differs from other facials majorly due to the machine performing the service vs therapist hands. This feature makes extractions easy and painless, and infusion seamless. Plus, the gunkie jar to view at the end of each hydrofacial!
Hydrofacial treatments range from 45 minutes to 1.5 hours depending on which tier and modalities chosen.
Hydrofacial is highly recommended to help decongesting, extracting, and clear skin. By using the diamond tip device, this allows easier extractions and softening of the skin.
Yes, you can still get a hydrofacial with sensitive skin. As this is fully customizable, the providers will adjust products to best fit your reactive skin and help support your barrier, often improving the appearance of redness and other indicators of sensitive skin.
Hydrofacials are recommended as maintenance facials every 4-6 weeks for best results.
After receiving a hydrofacial you should avoid actives, sun/heat, sweating or strenuous activity for at least 48 hours after treatment. Limiting makeup use is also recommended by providers for any facial.
Hydrofacial costs vary depending on length of service and modalities chosen (tier 1, 2, 3).
Hydrofacial can improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles; this service is one of our most popular maintenance facials for aging clients whose concerns are sagging skin and wrinkles. For this specific skin concern, tier 3 including the microcurrent modality is the best option.
Before your hydrofacial appointment it is vital to avoid filler/botox, sun exposure, and chemical exfoliants or topical actives. After your facial you should also avoid these for 48 hours.

Routine professional treatments help lighten hyperpigmentation and dark spots. When used in combination with professional homecare, clients experience overall brightness and texture improvements.
To prepare for your facial appointment it is important to stop any actives/chemical exfoliants a minimum of 6 days prior to treatment. Prepare for your skincare consult by noting the current products you use at home, and what you hope to gain from the service in terms of goals. As always, reach out to a provider if you have questions prior to your appointment.
For our maintenance facials we always recommend 24-48 hrs away from makeup, sun exposure, strenuous activities, heat, chemicals or actives. More corrective treatments may require longer time or a wider range of things to avoid.
Our facials range anywhere from $85-$500. We offer professional treatments for any size budget to help you acheive your skin goals.
We offer many corrective treatments that improve the appearance of sun damage, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. Depending on your skin type, your provider may suggest prioritizing one service over another.
