Education, Community, Simplicity, and Innovation: The Core of Glazed Sunless

Every great brand begins with a belief — and at Glazed Sunless, ours is built on four unshakable foundations:
Education. Community. Simplicity. Innovation.

From the very beginning, Glazed wasn’t just about creating a product line. It was about creating a movement — one that empowers artists to feel confident, connected, and inspired. Every formula, every training, every message we share is rooted in those four words. They represent not just what we do, but who we are and how we continue to evolve alongside the industry we love.

These four pillars guide every decision, every product we launch, and every conversation we have with the artists who make Glazed what it is today.

Let’s dive deeper into what they mean — and why they’re at the heart of everything we do.

EDUCATION — Confidence Begins with Understanding

The best artists aren’t only talented — they’re informed and educated behind the ‘why's’ of the industry. They walk into each appointment with their head held high in confidence.

At Glazed Sunless, we believe education is empowerment. When you understand why your products perform the way they do, and the reasoning behind each concept- you stop guessing and start mastering your craft. You become more consistent and more capable of creating results that turn clients into lifelong loyal clients.

I remember when I first started spray tanning — standing in a small room with a used machine and more questions than answers. I was mixing bottles, hoping for the perfect outcome, and constantly second-guessing. It wasn’t until I learned the why behind everything — undertones, DHA percentages, rinse times, prep and post care— that it finally all clicked.

That same “aha” moment is what Glazed was built to give every artist.

Education That Actually Makes Sense

Every Glazed formula is intentionally designed to teach color theory through use — no textbook needed.

  • Original 14 shows how balance creates versatility. It’s neutral, universal, and adaptable.

  • AF Violet demonstrates undertone correction in action, neutralizing warmth for a cooler, more balanced glow.

  • Smoke Show teaches depth — how to achieve richness without unwanted warmth.

  • Bombshell celebrates warmth — the golden, sun-kissed finish that feels like confidence bottled up.

Each product was created to simplify the learning curve and reinforce the basics of artistry through experience. You learn as you spray — and that’s exactly the point.

Teaching the Artist Behind the Gun

Our Virtual Solution Masterclasses take that one step further. They’re more than product trainings — they’re group mentorships. Artists learn not just about the Glazed line, but about skin types, undertones, troubleshooting, and how to confidently create consistent results on every client.

Because when an artist understands the science, their artistry transforms.
Education removes fear — and replaces it with confidence.

COMMUNITY — You Don’t Have to Build Alone

The second pillar, community, is the heartbeat of Glazed Sunless.

Spray tanning can feel isolating. It’s you, your clients, and your thoughts — wondering if you’re doing it right or if anyone else out there understands what it feels like to be building something on your own. Entrepeneurship is the furthest thing from easy.

Inside the Glazed Babes community, artists celebrate wins, talk through struggles, and learn from each other. It’s collaborative, not competitive — because when one artist wins, the entire community rises.

This isn’t just another Facebook group or online forum. It’s a living, breathing network of people who understand what it means to create confidence for others while learning to find it in themselves.

We see it in our Virtual Masterclasses, where artists from across the country show up to learn and support one another.
We see it at our Glazed Sunless Retreats, where education meets relaxation and lifelong friendships are formed.
And we see it through our Ambassador Program, where artists who love Glazed represent what it means to build a business rooted in authenticity and artistry.

Education builds skill.
Community builds longevity.

Together, they form the foundation for sustainable success.

SIMPLICITY — Because Great Art Doesn’t Need Complication

The third pillar, simplicity, is what allows everything else to work.

From the start, Glazed Sunless was built to simplify what so many artists found confusing. No more mixing bottles, guessing percentages, or juggling too many products that all do the same thing.

We believe simplicity creates freedom — the kind of freedom that lets artists focus on their craft, not on chemistry.

Simplifying the Spray Tan Experience

Each Glazed formula was designed to remove the guesswork:

  • Every bronzer base is already pre-customized for specific undertones.

  • Each DHA percentage is carefully balanced for predictable results.

  • And every label, guide, and description is written in plain, clear language.

That means no more standing at your station wondering what to use — and no more mixing just to make something “work.”

Because your energy belongs with your clients, not your bottles.

Simplicity Beyond the Bottle

Our commitment to simplicity goes beyond formulation — it’s reflected in how we run our business, design our packaging, and communicate with our artists.

Our online store is clean and intuitive.
Our education is structured but never overwhelming.
And our communication is honest, transparent, and real.

Simplicity isn’t about doing less — it’s about doing things intentionally.
Every decision we make at Glazed is meant to help artists spend less time overthinking and more time doing what they love.

INNOVATION — Evolving with the Industry

The fourth pillar of Glazed Sunless is the one that ensures we never stand still: innovation.

The sunless industry is constantly evolving — new formulas, new technologies, new standards of performance. What worked five years ago isn’t enough anymore, and we believe that’s a good thing. Growth means change. And Glazed was built to evolve with it.

Innovation isn’t just about creating new products — it’s about improving everything we touch.

Every Glazed formula starts with a question:
How can we make this better for artists?

That question fuels every decision we make — from developing new bronzer bases to testing new exciting ingredients. We listen to feedback from the artists who use Glazed daily. And we’re not afraid to reformulate, refine, or completely reimagine when something can be improved.

Glazed is not just keeping up with the industry — we’re helping lead it forward.

But innovation means nothing without integrity.
Every new launch, every formula upgrade, every idea is built on the same foundation of quality that Glazed started with.

We never innovate for the sake of hype.
We innovate to make your job easier, your artistry stronger, and your clients’ results even better.

That’s why “innovation” isn’t just a buzzword for us — it’s a promise.
A promise to always listen, always improve, and always evolve alongside the artists who made Glazed what it is today.

THE FOUR PILLARS, TOGETHER

ach pillar — Education, Community, Simplicity, and Innovation — plays a unique role in the Glazed philosophy, but together they create something powerful.

  • Education gives artists the confidence to create results they’re proud of.

  • Community gives them the support to keep growing.

  • Simplicity gives them clarity and consistency.

  • Innovation ensures that Glazed — and every artist who uses it — continues to evolve with the industry.

This combination is what makes Glazed Sunless stand out.
We’re not here to be the biggest — we’re here to be the best.
To redefine what artistry in the sunless world looks like, and to prove that professionalism and passion can coexist in a simple, supportive, and innovative way.

WHAT IT MEANS TO BE GLAZED

Being “Glazed” means believing in growth.
It means you value learning, connection, and progress over perfection.
It means you show up for your clients, your craft, and yourself — with confidence, curiosity, and creativity.

It’s about evolving together — as artists, as educators, as a community.

Because the future of spray tanning isn’t just about who has the best formula.
It’s about who’s willing to grow with intention.

And that’s what Glazed Sunless was built to do — to educate, to connect, to simplify, and to innovate for the artists who trust us most.
