Last Minute Halloween Costume Ideas

October 21, 2013 tropicaltanjoplin

With Halloween fast approaching, maybe you have been too busy with your work and personal life to go shopping for a costume. If your favorite party is just around the corner, there are two things you need to do before your grand arrival—tan and show up looking smoking hot in the coolest costume ever!

Here at Tropical Tan of Joplin, Missouri, we want to take a little stress off your shoulders. So after you are done relaxing under our hot lamps, it is time to focus on your look. Here are a few last minute Halloween costume ideas for your spooky shindig!Zombified!
A popular costume choice for many recent years has been zombies. Zombies are taking the Halloween circuit by storm and you can basically pull together an outfit in minutes! The good thing about this costume type is that you can use many things you may already have around the house. Here are a few items to get you started:

Old prom dress or suit
Acrylic paint and costume makeup
Torn or shredded clothing

Transforming into a zombie can be thrilling and is also a great way to reuse items that you may already have around the house. Rip up some sleeves and use paint to transform your face and clothing into a “just out of the grave” look. The zombie look means utilizing torn and distressed clothing to your advantage to create a half-dead look that will really creep out other party-goers.

Gatsbyish
The Great Gatsby is a timeless classic focusing on long-lost love found once again. With the book becoming a blockbuster summer hit, dressing up to be Jay Gatsby or Daisy Buchanan is a really hot option for a last minute costume. While having classic 20s attire would really set off the look, you can achieve a close match by wearing a modern flapper dress and a sleek suit. Dress up your makeup and hair to match the classic look of the roaring 20s.

Miley Cyrus
While everyone knows Miley’s look has changed over the past five years, she is one of the most popular costume options this year. Twerk it out with a crazy, skimpy body-hugging bustier with short shorts or sport the classic Miley in her Hannah Montana days—funky punk rock/ good girl next door.

Before and after your Halloween festivities, look your best by visiting Tropical Tan of Joplin, Missouri. We will analyze your needs and get you into the best tanning package within your budget.

Monthly Specials

Tropical Tan’s October Specials in Recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October 3, 2013 tropicaltanjoplin

Every October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a month where organizations such as national public service organizations, professional medical organizations and government agencies collaborate with one another in order to raise funds for and awareness of Breast Cancer research.

October Special at Tropical Tan

In October, we will be offering several specials in order to contribute to Breast Cancer Awareness Month. If a client donates $3 or more, they will receive 25% off of tanning packages*. If a client spends $50 or more, they will get to spin a wheel to win free products or services!

These specials are awesome deals that not only save you money, but also raise funds and awareness for battling breast cancer. In addition, new research suggests tanning may increase levels of vitamin D, which acts as a natural suppressant of breast cancer.

Vitamin D, Breast Cancer and Tanning

Studies have shown that increased levels of vitamin D can reduce a woman’s chances of developing breast cancer by 50-70% and vitamin D levels can be increased through indoor tanning or the sun!

Even better, just one session of non-burning indoor tanning can provide the equivalent amount of vitamin D as 100 glasses of milk!

Vitamin D is known as the “sunshine” vitamin, and sun beds and the sun alike emit enough UVB light to cause natural vitamin D production. A study published in the Journal of Oncology showed that only 6% of early-stage breast cancer patients had sufficient vitamin D levels.¹

This shocking statistic reveals that this single vitamin can potentially reduce the onset of breast cancer in a huge percentage of the population.

Take Advantage of these Specials and Increase Your Vitamin D Levels!

With this great news about the ability of vitamin D to reduce breast cancer occurrence, it’s important for all women to ensure they have sufficient levels of vitamin D. That’s why Tropical Tan’s October specials as part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month are an excellent offer to take advantage of, as clients will not only be contributing to raising funds to fight breast cancer, but will also be taking care to ensure their own risk is reduced through the natural production of vitamin D as a result of indoor tanning.

Tropical Tan is located at 705 Illinois, Suite 17A, Joplin, Missouri 64801 and can be reached at (417) 782-3900. Stop in today to see why we are Joplin’s favorite tanning salon and find out more about these amazing specials! No appointment is necessary.
