What To Do
Before and After Your Spray Tan
Before Tanning Care
DO'S
• Wax or Shave - Wax or shave (24 hours before)
• Mani / Pedi - Get your manicure / pedicure before your session. Otherwise the scrubbers the nail salons use will scrub off some of the tan from the tops and sides of your feet. (24 hours before) Prefferable have a clear nailpolish on to protect nails.
• Exfoliate - Exfoliating with a salt scrub or other appropriate product is recommended. Removing loose, dead, dry skin cells that prevent even application of sunless solution will improve and extend your tanning results. (day of tan) ***Be sure you do not use a "moisturizing" exfoliator because these contain lotion and/or oil. Dove, Bath & Body works, etc are not good to use before your tan. Use something that is specifically for "Sunless Tanning" or "Pre-Tan." Your skin should feel a little bit dry after you have exfoliated properly.
• Brush Your Teeth – Be sure you brush your teeth BEFORE your tanning appointment. You do not want the water to drip down your arm and leave a streak, or leave a white ring around your mouth. (day of tan)
• Children – If you have children that need assistance at bath time, be sure to bathe them before your tanning session. You will not be able to touch water for 10 hours after your tan. (day of tan)
• Shower / Cosmetics Lotions – Shower and remove any body lotion, moisturizer, perfume, deodorant, makeup and jewelry. These items create a barrier between the solution and your skin. The solution will not absorb properly if not removed from the skin. (day of tan)
DO NOT'S
• Bar Soap - ***DO NOT USE BAR SOAP OF ANY KIND*** It will leave a layer of film on your skin, even Ivory and Dove.
• Oil(s) – Do not use products that contain any oils. The oily barrier can stop the spray tanning solution from absorbing into the skin.
• Cosmetics – Do not wear body lotion, moisturizer, deodorant, makeup and jewelry. Not having any of this on will ensure the best results.
WHAT TO WEAR DURING YOUR TAN
• Women – Women can choose to wear black under wear, a bathing suit, thong, bandeau top, or nothing at all.
• Men – Men may not under any circumstances, tan nude. Must wear boxers, swim trunks, boxer briefs or a thong.
