Hi, I’m Ash - Founder of Cretan Glow.

I am an entrepreneur and am grateful to operate 2 businesses that revolve around my passions and families.

Cretan creates opportunities to meet others and help them connect deeper with their self image while partnering exclusively with Canadian, female-founded brands. I love watching others thrive and am always an open book!

I am a NUDA certified Spray Tan Artist who actively builds on my training through continued education, master classes and proactive networking and collaboration.

In addition to offering mobile spray tan services, I developed the Cretan Sun Boutique which features retail products perfect for extending and optimizing on your spray tan, or general skin care especially well suited for upcoming vacations or weddings.

My Vision for Cretan Glow

Refreshing Vacation Photo - NUDA 
Cretan Glow was born from a vision to connect clients deeper with their self image in an empowering and positive way, while benefiting their skin through the process. Cretan exclusively utilizes NUDA spray tan solutions given that it is a female founded, Canadian brand that is fueled by high quality ingredients leading to lasting beneficial results. 
Whether its an upcoming vacation, wedding, special event, or simply just your monthly glow, with over 10 solutions to choose from, I can suggest the best fit for your skin tone and desired results subsequent to our 1X1 consult.
I am also more than happy to guide you through suggested products featured within the Cretan Sun Boutique given that I have personally vetted every product hosted. 
If you are unfamiliar with the spray tan process or have any questions feel free to contact our team.

Core Values

  • Feature and utilize brands that ethically align with my core values such as vegan, cruelty-free and skin-safe clean products. 
  • Promoting female empowerment by partnering with brands who are female founded.

  • Only recommend products that I myself can confidently back.

Lasting Impact

  • The Cretan Glow encompasses not only the physical glow that you achieve from our signature spray tans, but the internal feeling you emulate when you feel your best. 
  • We aim to share that feeling with all of our clients WHILE strategically utilizing products with ingredients that have lasting benefits for your skin physically.
