Impressive Glow

The company was built by owner and educator Gina Lopez, who started a spray tan business in 2018 and later grew it into an education company for beauty professionals. Today it runs a Summerville studio where clients book spray tans and teeth whitening, and it trains practitioners through online courses, mini courses, business coaching and small-group in-person sessions. The business says it has trained thousands of beauty professionals, and its site shows a 5.0 average from 120 reviews.

A custom spray tan starts with a consultation on skin tone, the depth of color wanted and the event date, and the color is adjusted to the development time. Each appointment includes a color recommendation, professional application, detailing for hands, feet and harder-to-reach areas, and a finishing powder. Clients leave with personalized development instructions and aftercare suggestions. The business suggests booking about two days before an event so the color has time to develop and rinse.

Teeth whitening appointments begin with a starting shade assessment and prep, then a guided process with an LED whitening session. The visit closes with a final shade comparison, post-whitening instructions and maintenance recommendations. Results depend on natural tooth shade, staining and how each person responds, and whitening does not change the shade of crowns, veneers or tooth-colored fillings. The business notes that sensitivity is very rare and that precautions are taken at appointments.

Training runs in several formats. Online spray tan training is self-paced, with more than 30 videos, lifetime access, a certificate of completion and two private Zoom coaching calls; it is priced at $525 for training only or $995 with a professional starter kit. The two-day in-person course, called The Impressive Glow Method, is held in small groups at the Summerville studio and is priced at $1,895 in full, or $1,395 for the technique-only first day. Its starter kit includes an Apollo spray tan machine, spray gun, tent, solution samples and client supplies, and the full Method adds a professional photoshoot. Online teeth whitening training is available with a $975 starter kit, and a duo course covers both services. Certificates are completion certificates, not state-issued licenses, so students are told to verify local requirements.

Business support includes mentorship and coaching on marketing, social media, client attraction and pricing. A one-hour Zoom Power Hour is priced at $125, and one-on-one coaching and Instagram business page audits are also offered. Spray tan mini courses range from a $28 starting guide to a $69 three-course bundle and a $169 Spray Tan Solution 101 course. Questions about services, training or coaching receive a reply within two business days.
