Spray Tan Preparation Guide
To ensure you get the best, longest-lasting tan from your spray tanning session, please follow
the steps below:
24-48 Hours Before Your Appointment:
​
-
Hair removal (shaving, waxing, epilating) should be done at least 24 hours before your tan to avoid irritation and give pores time to close.
-
Exfoliate your entire body to remove dead skin cells. Use an exfoliating mitt.
-
Moisturise well focusing on dry areas like hands, elbows, knees, ankles, and heels.
On the Day of Your Appointment
​
-
Shower and lightly exfoliate if needed - but do not apply oils, moisturisers, deodorant, perfume, or makeup. These create a barrier and may affect your tan's development.
-
Wear loose, dark clothing, dark underwear and flip-flops or loose shoes to your appointment. Tight clothes can rub off the tan while it’s developing.
-
Remove all jewellery and makeup before your session.
Aftercare Tips (Post-Tan)
​
-
Avoid exercise, showering, sweating, or getting wet for at least 8–10 hours (or as advised depending on your tan type).
-
When you do shower, use lukewarm water and avoid soaps with sulphates. The initial guide colour will wash off this is normal.
-
Pat yourself dry, do not rub as this will remove your tan.
-
Moisturise daily to prolong your tan and ensure even fading.
-
Avoid exfoliating, swimming , long hot baths, or using products with AHAs or oils, as these can strip your tan.
