Before Tanning
- Waxing, pedicures and facials should be done at least one day prior to
tanning session for best results.
- Bathe, shave and exfoliate with wash cloth and an exfoliant scrub.
This will take off the dead skin cells so the tan will last longer.
- Lotions, perfumes, make up and deodorant are not suggested before
spraying. These act as barriers and affect the depth of the tan.
- We suggest bringing loose dark fitting clothing and flip flops to wear
afterwards. Tight clothes and jeans may cause tan to wear off. It is
recommend to wait for 4 hours before putting on tight clothing.
- Avoid perspiring, washing hands and other water activities as this may
cause it to streak until first shower.
- Wait for a minimum of 8-12 hours to shower using an alcohol-free
shower gel. However we suggest 24 hours. You will see the cosmetic
bronzer wash off, this is normal.
- Moisturize twice a day with alcohol free lotion, to make it last longer
we suggest one with a light bronzer. Hydrated skin makes your tan
last longer. Alcohol based products are drying to the skin making the
tan fade quicker.
- Avoid exfoliating skin, hair removal and bleach products on your skin.
- Avoid long hot showers/baths and pat dry with towel after shower.
- Avoid hot tubs, pools and oceans. If so, use a waterproof sunscreen
to seal in your color.
Add an additional 3-5 days to the life of the tan with a
tanning extender
