Preparation/Aftercare
Please note: These are general guidelines only. Speak to your Spray Tan Technician for more details. Exfoliate thoroughly and moisturize the day before your tan is to be applied. This will remove dead skin and provide a new, smooth, surface for your tan. Exfoliating helps to promote even coverage and lengthens the duration of the tan.
Before you tan
Review and Sign the release form.
Shave or wax and moisturize the night before your application.
Remove make-up, moisturizer, perfume and deodorant before your application.
It is recommended that you wear dark loose fitting clothing. Solution washes out of most clothing very easily but tends to stain nylon and Lycra materials; therefore dark colored underwear is recommended.
A womans tan can be directly affected by her hormones. Considering her cycle, it can cause blotchiness or the color not to develop as dark as normally. It is not common, but can happen.
Oily skin types usually develop lighter and require an extra spray after 24-48 hours to get your base color.
Aftercare
Leave your tan for at least 7 hours (overnight if possible) before showering or taking a bath. This allows your tan to develop.
Avoid wearing socks or shoes after your tanning session as sweating can inhibit the development of your tan.
Avoid applying moisturizers or deodorants.
Avoid wearing tight clothing for at least 5 hours. This includes tighter fitting jeans.
All swimming, showering and vigorous exercise must be avoided for at least 5 hours as this can inhibit the development of your tan.
Do not shave for 12 hours after your treatment.
Beware wearing long boots after tanning as these can make your tan patchy on your legs.
Remember
When you take a shower or bath you will probably see some color wash off. Dont worry. This is quite normal as it is only the color guide that the spray tan technician uses when the tan is applied. You will be left with a gorgeous tan.
Maintaining the Tan
It is recommended you follow these general guidelines to maintain your tan.
Moisturize regularly
Avoid long hot baths and showers as these speed up exfoliation
Pay your skin dry after a bath or shower. Rubbing your skin may rub off your tan.
Avoid swimming pools or seawater as these can reduce your tan.
Try to always have a fresh new razor for shaving.
Make sure you speak with your spray tan technician if you have questions.
