While in college, Gabbie struggled to find a high quality, organic spray tan facility. Her sophomore year she decided to take matters into her own hands. Gabbie bought a machine and earned her first certification.

Over the past seven years, Gabbie has given thousands of spray tans, perfecting her technique and earning another certification from celebrity tan artist Isabel Alysa, founder of Dolce Glow. Gabbie puts a strong emphasis on selecting the best high quality, organic products in order to apply a flawless natural bronze tan. After moving home to Tampa, Gabbie decided to expand her tanning community and create BARE.
