Original Rapid
$69.00 – $248.00Price range: $69.00 through $248.00
Original Rapid delivers 18% DHA with olive undertones in a fast-drying alcohol base, allowing clients to control their depth with rinse times from 2 to 5 hours. Fragrance-free, PETA-approved, and free of erythrulose, parabens, and mineral oil. Recommended for all skin types with cool or neutral undertones.

The Speed of Rapid, The Soul of Original
Original Rapid combines the signature olive undertones and golden finish of the Original line with an 18% DHA rapid-rinse formula. The alcohol base replaces aloe vera for a quick-dry feel, letting you dress and go within minutes of application.
Shower in as little as two hours for a light glow, or wait up to five hours for maximum depth. The elevated DHA concentration and olive undertones ensure a natural, sun-kissed result no matter when you rinse — with up to seven days of longevity.
Clean Ingredients, Real Results
Natural DHA (18%)
Elevated concentration of DHA derived from sugar beets and sugar cane — the higher percentage enables the rapid-rinse development timeline.
Vitamin E
Combats free radicals and preserves a youthful appearance, safeguarding skin against environmental damage during development.
Walnut Extract
Sourced from the husk — never the nut — for a signature golden undertone safe for those with nut allergies.
Fast-Dry Alcohol Base
Replaces aloe vera for a comfortable, quick-drying feel during the rapid development phase — dress and go within minutes.
Three Steps to a Flawless Tan
Prepare the Skin
Exfoliate and moisturize dry areas 24 hours before. Skip deodorant, perfume, and tight clothing on the day of application. Use Sjolie pH Balancer Prep Spray and Barrier Cream for best results.
Apply Evenly
Pour 2 oz (50 ml) into the spray gun. Apply one light, even coat using the Sjolie Spray Tan Method. Dry the client between each pass. Do not shake the solution before use.
Rinse on Your Schedule
Rinse after 2 hours for a light glow, 3 hours for medium, 4 hours for dark, or 5 hours for dark depth. Follow the recommended rinse time carefully to prevent overdevelopment. DHA continues to develop for up to 24 hours after rinsing.
Rapid Results for Every Skin Tone
Original Rapid is recommended for all skin types with cool or neutral undertones. The rapid-rinse feature makes it ideal for clients who need quick results — but avoid using it on clients with upcoming events like weddings or those with skin health concerns, as rapid solutions can be less forgiving.
Fragrance-free, PETA-approved, and free of erythrulose, mineral oil, parabens, and urea. Compatible with HVLP and airbrush machines. Rinse times: 2 hours (light), 3 hours (medium), 4 hours (dark), 5 hours (dark depth). Store at 65–75°F away from direct light.

Frequently Asked Questions
Original Rapid contains 18% DHA and is alcohol-based, allowing clients to rinse in as little as 1–2 hours instead of the standard 8-hour development time. DHA continues developing up to 24 hours after the first rinse.
Rinse time determines depth: 1–2 hours for a light, natural glow; 2–3 hours for a medium result; 3–4 hours for a deeper tan. The solution is not intended to stay on longer than 4–5 hours.
Original Rapid has olive (green) undertones, creating a golden, sun-kissed finish. It is best for clients with cool or neutral undertones (pink/red skin tones).
Original Rapid is excellent for clients who need a quick turnaround — lunch-break appointments, last-minute events, or busy schedules where an 8-hour wait is not practical.
Each 32 oz quart provides approximately 16 full-body spray tans at the recommended 2 oz (50 ml) per application.
Rinse with lukewarm water only — no soap at the first rinse. Pat dry gently. The cosmetic bronzer washes away, but DHA continues developing for up to 24 hours.

This formula proves that you can have both speed and quality in a spray tan formula. The alcohol base dries fast and the 18% DHA ensures vibrant color. The flexible rinse times make it perfect for any schedule or depth preference.
My studio transformed when I switched to the Sjolie Quick-develop formula.
The Sjolie Rapid has earned a permanent spot in my studio for all express appointments. The color develops evenly and rapidly which is impressive for an express spray tan solution. For same-day or event spray tans this quick-develop formula removes the biggest barrier to booking. If you have not tried…
The Sjolie express solution is exactly what fast-drying spray tan formulas should be.
Being able to offer same-day spray tans has expanded my business in ways I never expected with The quick-develop formula.
The quality of The express formula is immediately apparent from the first express spray tan application. The solution has a pleasant neutral scent during fast development which is a nice bonus.
