Pre tan preparation
To achieve the most even, long-lasting tan, proper skin prep is essential before your spray tan.
Follow these simple steps for flawless results:
1. Exfoliate thoroughly before your appointment to remove any dead skin cells and to ensure an even application. Focus on dry areas like elbows, knees, and ankles.
2. Avoid lotions, oils, perfumes and deodorants on the day of your tan, as these can create a barrier and affect absorption.
3. Shave or wax at least 24 hours in advance to avoid irritation and patchiness.
4. Wear loose, dark clothing to your appointment to prevent smudging during the developing process.
5. With the right preparation, your spray tan will go on smoother, last longer and fade more evenly-leaving you with a gorgeous natural glow.
Post-tan care
To ensure your tan lasts as long as possible, follow these aftercare steps:
Avoid water - Stay dry for at least 8 hours or as recommended by your technician.
Wear loose clothing - Stick to dark loose-fitting clothes and avoid tight straps or seams.
Don’t touch it - Avoid touching your skin while it’s developing to prevent transfer or uneven patches.
AFTER YOUR FIRST RINSE:
You can have a shower with soap but do not scrub or use a face washer. You will see some bronzer wash off but that is normal!
Pat Dry - Gently pat your skin dry with a towel. Do not rub.
FOR THE DAYS FOLLOWING YOUR TAN:
Moisturize Daily - Hydrated skin = longer lasting tan. Use a gentle, oil free moisturizer morning and night.
Avoid Exfoliating - Steer clear of scrubs, loofahs, or waxing while your tan is on.
No oils or harsh products - Oil based products can fade your tan faster. Use gentle, tan-safe body wash and skincare.
Stay cool - Avoid long hot baths, steams rooms, and excessive sweating which may cause premature fading.
