How To Prepare For Your Tan
Tip #1: Exfoliate. Use a bath sponge or wash cloth to buff away dead skin cells and flakes before your session.
Tip # 2: If you shave any part of your body, ensure you do this the night before to prevent the tan from pooling in your pores.
Tip #3: Do not apply any moisturiser on the day of your tan, and be sure to remove any deodorants or perfumes prior to your spray tan session. Any creams or chemicals on your skin will block your tan.
Tip #4: Bring loose-fitting clothing to change into after your tan. Tight bra staps or waist bands can rub against your new tan, so try to wear baggier clothing for the first hour at least. Remember the instant bronzer will also transfer onto your clothing (don't worry, it won't stain!) so we recommend wearing darker clothes.
How To Maintain Your Tan
Tip #1: With the exception of Electric Tan, in which case your beautician will advise you of your recommended development time, always allow your tan to develop for 8-12 hours before showering. The easiest way is simply to leave it on over night.
Tip #2: When you come to moisturise, always use a non-greasy oil-free moisturiser to prevent your tan from being prematurely stripped from your skin. Ask your beauty therapist about our aloe-based Oil-Free Moisturiser.
Tip #3: Avoid swimming pools, long baths, steam rooms and saunas. Chlorine will remove your tan, and anything which causes prolonged moisture on your skin (sweating, bathing) will speed up the rate at which your tan fades.
*Please note spray tans do not provide any protection from sunlight so you still need to think about sunscreen if appropriate *
