Sunless & Spray Tans at Island Glow
Central Virginia’s glow authority since 2010.
Island Glow didn’t just “add” spray tans — we helped start the sunless movement locally. In 2010, Island Glow became the very first mobile spray tan company in Central Virginia, bringing flawless, confidence-boosting color straight to clients who wanted a safe, gorgeous glow without the sun.
Today, our sunless program has grown into one of the most trusted in the region — we tan at least 16,000 clients every year — and we’re proud to offer two easy ways to glow:

The Island Glow Difference: Our Own Private Sunless Collection
In 2013, Michelle began spraying the Redskins Cheerleaders and Carolina Panthers Cheerleaders. That experience changed everything.
She wasn’t satisfied with the spray tan blends available at the time — the undertones, the fade, the “smell,” the overall outcome. So she teamed up with a chemist and designed her very own private spray tan blends and sunless collection, created specifically for Island Glow clients.
Our blends are:
-
Rich in color (never orange, never flat)
-
No smell (yes, really)
-
Super clean + vegan
-
Paraben-free + sulfate-free
-
Made to look absolutely gorgeous in real life and on camera
This is sunless, elevated.
Trusted on Big Stages
Over the years, Michelle has spray tanned:
-
National recording artists
-
Miss Virginia and Miss America competitors
And Island Glow has proudly served as a sunless sponsor for:
-
Richmond Raiders Dance Team
-
VCU Gold Rush Dance Team
-
Longwood Cheer & Dance Team (current)
-
Cheer Challenge All-Stars (current)
-
Professional NPC Body Builders
Because when the spotlight hits? Your glow has to be perfect.
​
What to Expect
No matter which option you choose, our goal is the same: a clean, even, confidence-boosting tan that fades beautifully.
You’ll leave with:
-
A natural-looking glow tailored to your vibe
-
Easy prep + aftercare guidance
-
A finish that looks flawless in daylight, selfies, and professional photos​

i’ve come here twice now as someone with zero spray tan experience or knowledge, and this place is great!! both ladies there that i’ve talked to have been able to answer any of my questions and are great at explaining the process and aftercare! my tan looks natural and lasted about a month which was far longer than i anticipated :)
