All you need to know about preparation and aftercare for your spray tan!
Before Having Your Tan
- Shower and exfoliate.
- Avoid heavy moisturising shower gels.
- Do not apply moisturisers, deodorants, perfume and oil based products before tan.
- Wax or Shave at least 24hours before your tan.
- Wear dark clothing and open shoes if possible i.e. flip flops - or just simply come in your dressing gown & slippers like a lot of my clients do.
- Avoid silk, wool and leather garments as tan will not wash out of these materials.
Whilst Having Your Tan
- Wear what ever you feel comfortable in, most usually wear a bikini, bra and pants, just a thong or even without underwear for minimal while patches.
- If possible wear black underwear as tan may not wash out of some materials.
- I will dry you after your tan so you will be free to get dressed almost straight away!
- Try not to touch your skin whilst your tan is developing so you don't get any tan on your hands
Spray Tan After Care
- Do not shower until 6 to 8 Hours after your treatment, next day for best results.
- Pat dry with a towel after showering don't rub.
- Avoid water on the skin after treatment especially rain.
- Moisturise regularly to lengthen the duration of your spray tan.I would recommend using a gradual tan moisturiser just to pro-long it that little bit longer. Dove Summer Glow is a great one!
- Exfoliate all tan off before your next spray tan!
