Bespoke Blower Powder Applicator
Hey everyone, Happy Monday, I wanted to jump on to let you all know about a purchase I just made to elevate my finishing powder ritual! She looks amazing & i’m so excited to test her out. Made in the USA by Bespoke Bronzed called the Bespoke Blower Powder Applicator. Price $189.00 USD. I will attach a barcode so you can see it in action thru IG. There is a wait list but I only had to wait 2 weeks so super quick restock! I will jump back on after I have received it and tested it out to give feedback! Take care guys šŸ¤Ž. See part 2 in comments

@Carlie Provan I'm with you……I am just hoping it’s not going to clog up my disposable filters too much and become not cost effective. I’ve thought of potentially swapping them out for washable filters but have heard they only trap large particles where as I would prefer both small & large for my clients & my own safety. šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø will keep you posted.

Part 2 - Finally I’ve tested the Bespoke Blower and you can check out my IG Reel to see it in action! ✨ @tropicaltansspraytanning At first, it took a few tries to get the powder flowing perfectly, but once the powder level was right, it worked really well. Out of the 3 speed settings, I found level 2 was the sweet spot for my finishing powder recipe. I was also worried it might clog up my disposable filters, but I was pleasantly surprised—it didn’t at all! There was no visible mess on my floor or towels, which made cleanup super easy. Plus, not having to clean brushes or bowls is a huge bonus šŸ™Œ It feels quite light to use, although my M Series spray gun is quite heavy, so that may also be why it feels lighter to me—depending on the type of spray gun you’re currently using, your experience might be a little different. I did find the canister flips around a little, so it takes a bit of adjustment to secure the canister & arm together to get it secure to stop the movement. The charge seems to be lasting really well too, although it is my quieter season at the moment so I’m not doing as many tans right now. The blower is a little on the louder side, but honestly, it’s just another salon sound to add to the mix šŸ˜‚ My honest opinion? It really takes my tans to the next level, my clients are loving the luxe finishing touch, and I’d happily give it a 10/10 šŸ¤Ž
Leaking Gun
Hi everyone šŸ¤Ž I just wanted to check if this is normal with a spray gun in particular the M-Series. I’ve noticed that when I tilt it too far the solution leaks out from around the rim of the cup. I haven’t experienced this with my previous spray guns (both very different from this spray gun), so I’m wondering if this is expected for this type of gun or if it could be an issue with the lid seal. I’d really appreciate your thoughts before I contact the supplier. Thank you

Hi @Izabela Jachowska & everyone šŸ¤Ž my win is not letting a slow start to 2026 dull my shine! I’m still in the building phase in a new location & new to business Instagram & feel that due to how the economy is people are just not tanning as regularly as they did 10 years ago! Saying this I am getting some return customers & a couple of new clients thru referrals. šŸ™Œ I also have had success with adding a new tan option to my service menu so now I have a standard & a deluxe tan option which I never thought would kick off so that’s a 2nd win šŸ¤Ž
Finishing Powder application ideas
Can I open up a discussion with all you lovely technicians about finishing powder application/techniques. Are we applying with a brush or an applicator. I have used both methods but find the dusting with a soft brush directly to the skin is much easier. I have seen on you tube some technicians using the hose to blow the powder onto their client's skin. Has anyone had success with this? I have horrible visions of me doing this and ending up with powder over all my clients face lol Also do you provide this service as complimentary, or do you charge extra?

@Shawna Schimnowski that’s interesting! Based on minimal reviews & no reply I would be very hesitant to make an upfront payment not knowing the ETA on the order! If you hear back can you let me know & I’ll do the same? šŸ¤Ž
