Spray Tan

Exfoliate 24 hours prior to your spray tan with a basic loofah or wash rag. Also, stay away from any heavy exfoliating oils. After showering DO NOT apply lotions, oils, or perfumes.

Shaving should be done 12 hours before your spray tan. Streaks may be an issue in your final tan if you shave right before due to the wax from the shaving bar.

Manicures, pedicures, and waxing should all be done prior to your spray tan.

Make sure to bring loose fitting clothes with you for after your spray tan.

Absolutely NO soap. A really slow rinse with lukewarm water is best. Only use your hands to remove the bronzer, and focus your attention to your legs, behind your arms, etc. The #1 cause for streaks is that the bronzer was not rinsed off properly and can stain the skin for a few days.

Hop back in the shower and do another rinse. If that doesn’t help, rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab will help remove the streak. Keep in mind that it will also remove the tan in the area you apply it to and you will need to respray if that happens.

Wait 12 hours AFTER your initial rinse before applying any kind of lotion. CeraVe is my favorite lotion. Moisturizing is the key to prolong your spray tan so moisturizing twice daily will give you the best results. It’s also important to stay hydrated and drink lots of water throughout the day.

Wait 24 hours for it to fully develop after rinsing. If it’s still not dark enough, you can respray over it

Try rinsing again, soak in a bathtub, or sit in a sauna/jacuzzi. These methods will remove some of the bronzer to lighten the color.

Yes! The most important thing to remember is that the solution does not contain any UV protection/sunscreen. You will still be able to develop a tan naturally in the sun.

NO! You will be blotchy.

Yes, it will remove majority of the tan and/or lighten it. Seawater, chlorine, and hot tubs can accelerate the fading of the tan. I recommend wearing waterproof sunscreen to help repel the water.

Bra/underwear, swimwear, or nude. Whatever you are most comfortable with.

We recommend scheduling a patch test prior to coming in for a full tan.

Normally yes, but a waiver will need to be signed prior to getting spray tanned.

Yes, the first few days minimum makeup might minimally rub off on your clothes etc. But, like most makeup, it does rinse off.

The best time to get sprayed before any event is 2-3 days prior.

Please wait 16 -24 hours and you should rinse off prior to working out. This will wash away any remaining bronzer – the cosmetic portion of your spray tan.

The length of your tan depends on the maintenance afterwards. Most people notice their tan begin to fade after about 4-7 days. Moisturizing and staying hydrated are two important factors as well.
