SPRAY TAN PREP
The preparation, along with the aftercare of your spray tan is crucial to your spray tan results. Follow our recommended guidelines to ensure your tans finish is as seamless as can be!
Hair Removal
Waxing should be done 48 hours prior to your spray tan for best results.
Shaving should be done at least 8 hours prior to your spray tanning session. You want to allow time for your pores to close again after shaving so the spray tan solution doesn't pool & give dark marks within each pore.
Spa Treatments
All spa treatments, including manicures & pedicures should be done a day or so prior to your spray tan session.
Spa treatments can either use product that creates skin barriers that will disrupt your tan, or use products that will strip your tan.
Exfoliating
Lightly exfoliate with an exfoliating mitt at least 6 hours prior to your spray tan to prepare the skin to evenly accept the spray tan solution. Avoid harsh physical exfoliating scrubs & loofas. Those can strip the skin excessively, leaving less for the tan to develop onto.
Cosmetic Products
Keep the skin clean & free of any deodorant, perfumes, lotions, moisturizers, makeup etc. on the day of your spray tan session. These products can create skin barriers that the tanning solution will not adhere to.

What to Wear
Check the weather! If there is any chance of rain, bring an umbrella and rain coat to cover yourself as you get into your car.
​
What you wear (or don't wear) during your spray tan session is completely up to your comfort level. If you choose to wear undergarments or articles of clothing during your session, a dark bra, underwear or swimsuit is recommended!
​
Wear or bring a change of dark, loose fitting clothing & open toed sandals for after your spray tan.
Bathing
It is best to shower the evening prior to your spray tan session. Showering should be done at least 4 hours prior to your spray tan session. If for some reason you have to shower within less than 4 hours before your spray tan session, do a cold water rinse at the end of your shower.
SPRAY TAN POST CARE
The preparation, along with the aftercare of your spray tan is crucial to your spray tan results. Follow our recommended guidelines to ensure your tans finish is as seamless as can be!
Bathing
After your spray tan, the cosmetic bronzer that is in the spray tan solution will remain on your skin. You can rinse in the shower 1-3 hours after your spray tan with NO SOAP. Applying any soap will prohibit the DHA in the spray tan solution from developing any darker. 8+ hours after your spray tan you can take a complete shower with soap. Wait overnight or 24 hours after your tan to obtain the darkest spray tan results. Be sure to avoid soaps with oil (especially Dove soap) & things such as body oils because the oil will strip your spray tan color.​
Activity
Any moisture will interfere with the development of your spray tan. This includes water, rain, tears, sweat, pet saliva etc. Wait at least 8 hours to resume activities that will cause excessive sweating to achieve the best spray tan results.
Hydration
Hydration is the key to a long lasting spray tan. Your tan can last 5-12 days depending on how hydrated you keep your body & skin. Drink lots of water and moisturize with some of our suggested body lotions to extend your tan. The amount of exfoliation (this includes shaving) will contribute to the shedding of your skin layers, which will gradually fade your tan.
