Let us ask you a few questions: How would you like to look like you jetted off to say, Aruba, every week or two?  What if we were to tell you that starting today, you will never have to travel to the tropics for such a natural, authentic, beautifying tan again? (You can if you want to, of course.) That kind of tan will come to you…

Cheeky would like to formally introduce you to Golden Girl Chicago, Chicago’s one and only boutique spray tanning firm that comes directly to your door, on your time. We actually had some apprehension about sharing these two lovely Golden Girls, a.k.a. Jenn and Amie, to our audience at large…we still need our appointments! But, it is Cheeky to share, after all.

Call up Jenn on her cell, or shoot her an email and let her know your address, your preferred time and date, your skin type and tanning “aspirations.” On the day of your appointment, she or Amie arrive (with genuine smiles and overall spunk), plus a spray tan machine and a mini pop-up tent. What results about 30 minutes later is the most gorgeous, natural, golden “fake” tan you will ever receive. Plus, it lasts for a good seven days.

But here’s what makes Golden Girl Chicago truly the best we’ve found: they aren’t going to do what you want them to do. Let us clarify: the G-girls pride themselves on authenticity, so if you’re looking to for a July-caliber glow in the middle of December, chances are Jenn or Amie will talk some sense into you. Because, the truth is, you don’t want to look like the girl who just went and got a spray tan. You want to look like the girl who just came back from Aruba. Even better, you probably won’t look like either: you will look like a naturally golden girl.




I love my Golden Girl Tan, Here's Why!!

By Orla Johannes

As a TV and Radio Announce from Montreal, Canada, I am queen of spray tans... i love the look! My cousins wedding was taking place in beautiful Chicago and I needed a spray tan while i was there. I went online and did some research of where to go. I found golden Girl Chicago and was impresses by the efficient response and also the fact that the company could come to my hotel room and do the spray tan. Being from out of town I took a chance, I have no idea of what it would turn out like! However i was Thrilled! The appointment was quick, the technician friendly and professional, it took 10 minutes, the tan had absolutely no smell and the next day it was a gorgeous golden color, even, no steaks, my hands and feet were great looking and it lasted well over a week with daily moisturizing! I took a big chance and I was so happy with the service and amazing results.






Vain Girl Memoir
Vain Girls Get A Golden Glow...The Smart Way

vaingirlmemoir.com

If you could go back and give your younger vain girl self just one piece of advice, what would it be? Mine would be “wear sunblock, please wear sunblock, I’m begging you to wear sunblock!” 
  
If we’re really smart, informed women who already know a sunless tan is the only safe ‘tan’ then why do we still ignore safety warnings about sun exposure?   It shouldn’t take seeing the sun’s destructive effects on our skin or learning that a friend has melanoma for us to take action.  I’ll admit, it’s sheer laziness that keeps me from diligently wearing sunscreen.  And I’m not proud of it.   

If wearing sunscreen every single day (as we should) isn’t a realistic goal for you, start small and build up.  Wearing sunglasses, a wide-rimmed hat and some SPF-enhanced foundation are easy ways to amp up your daily sun protection. 

But what about those times when you really want some color?  Maybe for an event, a beach getaway or because it’s Wednesday.  Just go about it the smart way.  We should only get gorgeous golden glows via safe practices:  professional spray tans, self-tanning products or with bronzing powder.  Agreed?

Speaking of gorgeous golden glows… last week I chatted with my good friend Lisa Gonzalez about her recent spray tan experience with Golden Girl Chicago. Golden Girl Chicago is a sunless spray tan service that offers color-customized, organic sunless spray and a big bonus: they’ll ‘tan’ you in your home for the ultimate in privacy and convenience. 

Vain Girl: Why did you book with Golden Girl Chicago?

Lisa:  I was attending a wedding last month and really needed some color. Nothing too tropical.  Just wanted a natural, healthy glow.  A friend of mine had tried Golden Girl and loved it, so I booked an appointment for myself.

Vain Girl:  What’s their tanning process like and how long did it take?

Lisa:  Jenn (Co-owner, Jenn Dieas) is very accommodating; she’ll come to your home or office or wherever.  Because of my schedule that week, I went to her location.  After she explained the airbrush process and chose the right color for me, it was time to strip down for the tan.  I put on a bikini and she airbrushed my skin under a small tent.   It took 15 minutes, tops.   And it wasn’t awkward at all.  Jenn has a way of making you feel completely comfortable.  She said she’s seen it all.

Vain Girl:  Ha ha!  I bet she has. Sounds like good tent-side manner makes all the difference.  How was the color and how long did the tan last?

Lisa:  The color was exactly what I asked for, a nice golden glow.  It lasted about 10 days –which is longer than expected.  Jenn warned me against taking scalding hot showers and encouraged me to moisturize daily to preserve the color.  I took her advice and got at least three extra days out of the tan.

Vain Girl So you’d recommend Golden Girl Chicago?

Lisa: Absolutely!   I’m not convinced that getting naked for a spray tan at my office would be a good idea, but the Golden Girls can come over to my house anytime.

Best Sunless Tan in Chicago

Being a blue eyed, fair skinned girl, tanning doesn’t exactly come um, naturally. My mission: finding the best spray tans around town, preferably one that doesn’t smell or turn my skin orange. After chatting with friends, colleagues and numerous spas, here are my top picks:

For all you busy guys and gals, Golden Girl Chicago is your go-to for sunless airbrush tanning. Golden Girls, Jenn and Amie will come to your location whether it’s your home or office and set up shop with a pop-up, mess free tent. Not only is it convenient, but they also use an all-natural, water-based organic spray that’s free of alcohol, oil and fragrances. Yes, that’s right NO fragrance. You can go to an event day of without showering again and not worry about being smelly.

Spray Tans That Actually Work

Golden Girl Chicago: Airbrush Tan

Details: During a consultation, co-founder Jenn Dieas determines your best bronzing color and gives you some pointers (shave the night before; exfoliate the morning of). Then she comes to your pad with a mobile airbrush sprayer, tent, towels, moisturizers, and an organic Australian sunless tanning formula derived from sugar beets.
Lasting effect: The twenty-minute process lasts longer than a week.
Perk: Dieas follows up to see how you’re doing.
Tip: Play around until you find your match (she can tweak formula hues by half a percentage).


Stripping down to a pair of boxer briefs in my boss’s office? Until last week, I never pictured that happening. If it did, I’d imagine it’d come with a nice bundle of cash I’d win from a lawsuit. But all I got was a spray tan. (Don’t worry: no hanky-panky was involved.) I’ve had my fair share of fails when it comes to spray tanning. (I could’ve auditioned to be an Oompa-Loompa.) Hence my reluctance to take on the challenge again, let alone from a mobile airbrusher. But therein was the beauty of the experience. The two-woman venture is made solely for people on the go, which is why they’re willing to come to wherever you are. Within seconds, an inflatable one-man tent pops up and I spend the next 15 minutes being sprayed front to back with an organic DHA solution properly shaded to give my skin a natural-looking sun-kissed jolt—no orange glow this go-round. -Mark Bieganski

Kelli Zink Gives You the Skinny

Golden Girl Chicago

  Jenn Dieas and her team tans the likes of NBC’s Ginger Zee and Cheeky’s own Erica and Jessica, not to mention, yours truly.

Their natural and organic sunless spray is alcohol-, oil-, paraben- and fragrance-free. I can personally vouch for the fact that you can go out right after getting your bronze on and not smell a bit.

The coolest part about Golden Girl is that they come to you – any time, any place. Jenn pops up a small tent and less than 30 minutes later, she’s out the door and you’ve never looked better.

Golden Girl Chicago:
This isn't Snooki's spray tan
chickagoan.com

After four years of offering on location spray tan services, Golden Girl Chicago, Chicago’s premier airbrush tanning spa, has opened their first brick and mortar location at 160 N. Halsted St.

Tanning beds can cause skin cancer and aging, and “spray tan” machines produce a cookie cutter tan that isn’t always flattering. Golden Girl Chicago uses the industry’s finest equipment, from top of the line airbrush machines, to 100% organic, environmentally friendly tanning solution. Golden Girl Chicago expertly mixes a formula customized to each client’s skin tone. The result is an airbrush tan, done only by hand, that leaves clients perfectly sun kissed; never streaky, orange, or with unnatural scents. Golden Girl Chicago is behind the tans of some of Chicago’s most notable faces including CelebTV’s Kelli Zink, NBC meteorologist Ginger Zee NBC anchor Marion Brooks, Cheeky Chicago’s Jessica Zweig and Erica Bethe Levin, and Bright Pink’s Lindsay Avner.

The new Halsted Street location boasts over 2,000 square feet and features “rustic vintage” décor created and constructed by the Golden Girl’s themselves from reclaimed materials. The urban oasis is adorned with pictures of Golden Girl Chicago’s actual clients, sporting their Golden Girl Glow. The space features three airbrush tanning rooms as well as a full service hair and makeup salon, and a full kitchen to allow private parties and events.

“When I moved to Chicago from Florida, I quickly realized I needed to figure out a way to achieve the tan I was accustomed to from days at the beach, without harming my skin,” says owner, Jenn Dieas. “I discovered airbrush tanning, and with my background in skin care began researching the best equipment, and the best solutions.”
