Tan Care

Pre-Tan Care
• Wax 24 hours before your session. You can shave up to 8 hours prior to your spray tan.
• EXFOLIATE in the shower the day of or the day before your spray tan session. Do not use exfoliating body washes or scrubs that are oil based. Use water based products only.
•Don't use anything the day of that is oil based (ex. Lotions, shaving cream, & body scrubs).
• Remove any body lotion, deodorant, makeup or jewelry.
• Be careful of what you wear after your session we recommend that you wear dark, loose (baggy) clothes (NO JEANS!) and open shoes for after your tan.
• Tight fitting clothes and shoes can cause skin friction in the first couple of hours after your spray tan and this may affect the outcome of your tan.
• Any rub-off of the bronzer should easily wash out of most fabrics. Avoid Nylon or Wool as these may absorb the bronzer.

Post-Tan Care
• Avoid contact with water for the first 2 hours.
• Do NOT shower for at least 8-10 hours.
• After showering, apply moisturizer.
• Avoid lotions containing Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA's) & Mineral Oil as these may cause skin exfoliation.
• Avoid any activities that may cause skin exfoliation.
• No hot, luxurious baths after your tan!! That will make your skin exfoliate faster, as will rolling in the sand on the beach.
• We recommend not getting a pedicure after your tan. Plan ahead and get your pedicure a day or so before your spray tan or do a polish change. The exfoliant and water soak will take the color off legs & feet. Mani's are fine.
• If you plan on getting a massage or going swimming after your spray tan session make sure you get our Moisturizing Spray Tan Seal Treatment so you can relax and be worry free.
• Hydrated skin retains the tan longer.
• MOISTURIZE …MOISTURIZE …MOISTURIZE!! (Choose a moisturizer that does not contain mineral oil).
•Avoid: Baby Oil, Dove & Dial products, Cocoa Butter, oil based products and products containing Mineral Oil, Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA's), Alcohol, Benzoyl Peroxide, & Salicylic Acid. These will all fade your spray tan color.
