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, lash services, and waxing should all be done 24 hours 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 luke-warm 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. Hempz original 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.

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

It is not recommended to get a spray tan on sunburned or peeling skin. Wait at least 3 weeks after your sunburn has healed. Tanning over peeling or damaged skin can result in uneven color and irritation.

To the appointment: Loose fitting dark clothes.

During the tan: Bra/underwear, swimwear, or nude. Whatever you are most comfortable with. I also have nipple covers and disposable panties available!

DHA is FDA approved and only penetrates the outermost layer of the skin. There is no evidence that DHA is harmful. However, we do recommend that you consult with your physician first.

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

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