Spray Tanning pre/post care

Whether it’s your first-time or you’re a seasoned tanner,  it is crucial to prepare your skin properly. Following these guidelines will ensure a flawless and long-lasting tan.

Pre tanning care: 

1. Exfoliate: Gently exfoliate your skin using a mild scrub or exfoliating mitt. This will remove dead skin cells and create a smooth surface for the tanning solution to adhere to.
2. Shave or Wax: If needed, shave or wax at least 24 hours before your appointment. This allows the pores to close and prevents any irritation from the tanning solution.
3. Avoid Moisturizers: On the day of your appointment, refrain from applying any moisturizers, oils, or lotions and make up to your skin. These can create a barrier and interfere with the tanning process.
4. Wear Loose Clothing: Choose loose-fitting, dark-colored clothing to wear after your session. Tight clothing and light colors may rub off the tanning solution and stain your clothes.

Post Tanning care:

After your spray tanning session, it is essential to maintain the longevity of your tan. Follow these guidelines:

1. Avoid Water and Sweat: For at least 8-10 hours after your session, avoid activities that may cause excessive sweating or contact with water. This includes showering, swimming, and intense workouts.
2. Moisturize Regularly: Starting the day after your session, moisturize your skin daily with a hydrating lotion. This will help prolong the life of your tan and keep your skin nourished.
3. Avoid Exfoliation: Refrain from exfoliating body washes on your skin. Exfoliation can remove the tanning solution and cause your tan to fade unevenly.
4. Pat Dry: When drying off after showering, gently pat your skin with a towel instead of rubbing. Rubbing can cause the tan to fade faster.

By following these pre and post-tanning care instructions, you can achieve a beautiful and long-lasting spray tan.
