Customizing Your Spray Tan: Mixing Sjolie’s Original and Luxe Lines for Unique, Seasonal Results

As we move through the summer months, many clients notice their skin tone changing with the season. Whether they’re enjoying more time outdoors, spending weekends at the beach, or experiencing different environmental factors like humidity and sun exposure, these shifts in skin tone can have an impact on their spray tan results. That’s why it’s important to offer customizable solutions to accommodate these changes and ensure your clients always get their ideal glow.
At Sjolie, we understand the importance of achieving a natural, radiant tan that matches your client’s evolving complexion throughout the year. This is where our Original and Luxe Lines come into play. Both lines are formulated to give a flawless, customizable finish, but when mixed together, they offer an even wider range of results that can adapt to your client’s unique skin tone.
First, it’s essential to understand the unique benefits and results of each line. Sjolie has dedicated time and resources to researching the most effective ingredients and formulas, ensuring they deliver exceptional results. The green and violet undertones in our solutions offer versatile options, enabling you to accommodate a wide range of skin tones and undertones you’ll encounter in your business. While complementary colors may eliminate the need for mixing, it can still be useful to adjust the DHA level or achieve a more neutralized undertone for a truly customized result.

The Benefits of the Original Line
The Original Line is designed to deliver a beautiful, natural glow, making it the ideal choice for most clients, particularly those with cool undertones. Key benefits include:
- Balanced Tones: The Original Line provides a balanced, golden-brown finish thanks to ingredients like caramel, walnut husk, and natural colorants. These undertones create a “green base” that effectively neutralizes pink or red undertones in the skin.
- Variety of Complimentary Shades: With a range of shades from light to dark, the Original Line offers 8-hour wear solutions as well as a quick-rinse formula for clients on the go. These versatile shades allow you to achieve a perfect finish with minimal custom mixing, helping you keep overhead costs low.
- Longer Lasting Results: The 8-hour solutions in the Original Line are ultra-hydrating, thanks to ingredients like Aloe Vera and Glycerin. This built-in moisture lock helps keep skin hydrated and enhances the longevity of the tan, eliminating the need for post-tan hydration sprays that are often unnecessary.

The Benefits of the Luxe Line
The Luxe Line is perfect for clients who desire a deeper, more intense tan. Offering a luxurious, chocolate-brown result, it’s particularly flattering for warm or olive skin tones. Here’s what makes it stand out:
- Deep, Rich Tones: Formulated with a violet-bronzer complex, the Luxe Line delivers a deep, sun-kissed bronze that is ideal for clients seeking a rich, intense tan. The violet bronzers help neutralize excessive yellow or ashiness, creating a more balanced and flattering tan on the skin.
- Quick Dry Formula: This alcohol-based formula dries quickly, ensuring a lightweight feel on the skin and making it easier for clients to dress without delay, all while maintaining comfort.
- Unique Shades: The Luxe Line offers two 8-hour shades—Medium and Dark—for a customizable, long-lasting tan, as well as a Rapid formula for clients seeking the convenience of a quick rinse. These versatile options ensure the perfect tan for every client, whether they prefer a deeper, more gradual glow or a faster result.
Why Mix the Original and Luxe Line Solutions?
Both the Original Line and Luxe Line of Sjolie spray tan solutions offer incredible results, but each provides its own set of benefits. Mixing them allows you to adjust the depth, warmth, and longevity of your clients’ tans. Here’s why you should consider mixing both:
- Adapt to Skin Tone Changes: Skin tones often shift as clients spend more time in the sun. Mixing solutions can help you adapt to their darker or lighter skin tones, ensuring their spray tan always looks fresh and customized to their complexion.
- Achieve Unique Customization: No two clients are the same, and sometimes one solution alone doesn’t provide the depth or warmth they’re seeking. Mixing the Original and Luxe Lines gives you the flexibility to create the exact color your client wants, whether they desire a lighter, more golden glow or a deeper, more bronzed finish.
- Seasonal Adjustments: As seasons change, so do your clients’ preferences. The Original Line provides a beautiful, natural tan, while the Luxe Line is ideal for clients who want a deeper, more luxurious glow. Mixing them allows you to seamlessly adjust to the client’s preferences based on their skin’s current needs and the season’s impact.
Mixing Solutions for Custom Results
Commitment Issues
For clients with fair skin and pink undertones who don’t want a light tan but still prefer to stay natural without committing to the next deeper shade, try a 50/50 mix of Original N°6 and Original N°9. This blend maintains the Original line’s green undertones, which complement fair skin tones, while adding just a subtle depth of color without the risk of an overly dark tan. It creates a smooth, natural-looking glow without surprising your clients with a more intense result than they’re comfortable with.
Added Hydration
If your client loves the color they get from their weekly Luxe N°9 spray but is noticing some dryness, try a 70/30 mix of their favorite Luxe N°9 solution with Original N°9. This combination allows them to maintain their favorite tan while infusing it with the skin-soothing Aloe Vera benefits of the Original Line, giving a hydration boost without compromising on color. For clients who prefer less hydration and more quick-dry benefits, simply adjust the formula by switching the cocktail to a 30/70 blend.
Perfect for a Summer Glow
For clients who want a radiant, glowing tan throughout the summer, but aren’t sure which undertone is best for their skin, try mixing equal parts of Original and Luxe. For medium skin tones, blend Luxe N°9 and Original N°9; for darker skin tones, mix Luxe N°12 and Original N°12. This versatile combination balances the rich, deeper tones of Luxe with the more neutral, golden hues of the Original, creating a customizable summer glow that suits any complexion.
Transitioning Summer Color
As summer progresses and your client’s skin naturally darkens with more sun exposure, their tanning needs may change. To help transition to a more natural fade for those planning less sun exposure soon, start with a 60/40 mix of Original N°12 and Original N°9. This blend will closely match their current shade while gradually softening and neutralizing the tan to maintain a smooth, even look as their natural color returns.
Summer is the perfect time to offer clients a personalized, seasonal spray tan experience that meets their unique skin tone and lifestyle needs. By mixing Sjolie’s Original and Luxe Lines, you can give them the customized, creative, and long-lasting results they crave. Whether they want a light golden glow or a deep bronze tan, the possibilities are endless.
