Making the Most of Your Tan

 

Prepping for your spray tan

  • Shave and exfoliate 24-48 hours before your appointment

  • Shower the day beforehand and not within six hours of your appointment

  • NO shaving cream, lotion, makeup or deodorant

  • Wear dark-colored, loose-fitting clothing, and flip-flops to your appointment

  • Bring a dark-colored towel to sit on in your car following your appointment

Caring for your spray tan

  • Leave the solution on for 8-12 hours (Rapid formula 1-4 hours/consult your artist)

  • Avoid any water/sweat on the skin until it’s time to rinse

  • Clear water rinse ONLY - no soap; rinse until water runs clear

  • NO soap or shampoo until 24 hours after appointment

  • Use a gel-based body wash - no Dove or bar soap (Ask about our Glow Bars)

  • Pat dry with a towel after showering - do not rub skin

  • Use a water-based body lotion - no mineral oil; 2x per day

  • No exfoliation or hot tubs for seven days

  • Prolong your tan with our body lotions, tan extender, and touch-up mousse available for purchase

  • Your tan will last an average of 5-10 days with proper care; results vary 

  • Please contact your artist before attempting to “fix” anything on your tan yourself. We will know the best way to troubleshoot any imperfections that may arise.
