Spray Tan Prep & Maintenance
The proper preparation and post tan care for your tan is just as important as the application. Follow our guidance for the best, long lasting, spray tan results!
Spray Tan Prep
Proper Prep is key!
Exfoliate and shave your skin the day before your tan or even a few days leading up to your appointment. Do any waxing, massages, manicures, or pedicures at least 24 hours before being sprayed - we do not want any excess oils or residue on your skin! Please do not apply any makeup, deodorant, perfumes, or oils the day of the tan. Do NOT shower right before your appointment. We say to shower at least 5 hours prior.

Post Tan Care Instructions
Post Appointment
You will see instant color due to cosmetic bronzer, however your actual tan can take 8-24 hours to fully develop.
​
Refrain from getting wet, sweating, or washing your hands until your initial rinse time.
​
Shower at the time we give you, do not leave the tan on longer than we tell you, this can lead to over processing.
Post Appointment Shower
When you shower for your initial rinse, you will see color go down the drain. No worries! This is just the cosmetic bronzer washing off, not your actual tan.
​
When you rinse, do not use any wash cloths, loofahs, or soap. Just use your hands and the water to rinse your skin of the cosmetic bronzer.
​
Pat dry, do not rub your body dry as this could be exfoliating to the skin.
After Your Shower
After you shower, do not put lotion on immediately. Wait until the next day to moisturize and after that, you'll want to moisturize twice daily with a QUALITY moisturizer.
​
We recommend our Perfect Glow Daily Moisturizer, Hempz, or Cerave.
​
A high quality body wash and minimizing makeup wear will also help your tan last longer and look great!
