BEFORE + AFTER SPRAY TAN SESSION
PREP - BEFORE YOUR SPRAY TAN
1-2 BEFORE YOUR SPRAY TAN SESSION:
-
moisturize your skin well in the days leading up to your spray tan. -
hydrate by drinking plenty of water which also helps to moisturize your skin -
exfoilate w/ a loofah or scrub daily to ensure you have fresh clean skin -
shave/wax - do not shave the same day as your appointment as this may cause your pores to remain open and spots may occur. the best time to shave is 1-2 days before. -
shampoo + condition the day before. shampoo/conditioner can possibly remain on skin if not properly rinsed and create a barrier between your skin and the tan. -
mani/pedi/massage - please ensure that nail or massage services are done BEFORE your appointment. many of these services use oil based products that will break down your tan. *we do not recommend mani/pedi services after your spray tan. if you do choose to recieve a massage after, request lotion over oil. if you choose to receive a mani/pedi after request a dry service. -
VERY IMPORTANT: if you have a visible sunburn, peeling or any previous sunburn in the last 30 days we do not recommend that you spray tan. your skin is still in a healing process during this time and results could be very unfavorable.
TAN DAY - DAY OF YOUR SPRAY TAN
DURING YOUR TAN:
-
what to wear? many clients opt for various choices such as swimwear, undies + bra, or some skip undergarments altogether. this is soley up to the client and is usually based off of their preference and level of comfort. -
please arrive with completely clean and product free skin. no make-up, no lotion, no deodorant, etc. *we have wipes available for you if needed to remove any deodorant + makeup. *any product left on skin can effect the quality of your spray tan - causing discoloration, spots, blotchy effects, etc. -
if you need to rinse /shower at home before your tan, please simply rinse in warm warm prior to arrival. *do not shave before your spray tan.
-
Consultation: we will spend a few moments discussing your tan color request, upcoming event and skin type. -
Custom Mix: our wide variety of solutions are mixed to create a custom color specifically for you + your skin. we do not use a one type fits all solution. -
Prep: you will be lightly misted with our skin prep spray to help eliminate oils and balance your skin PH level to prepare for the spray tan solution to be applied. -
Tan: the spray tan will be applied in 2 very light coats using hand spray techniques for very precise results. -
Dry + Set: we will then set your tan with a unique blending process and a quick dry powder to ensure a flawless tan. -
Dress: once you are dry, we request that you wear loose, dark clothing and open toe shoes for after your tan. Do not wear tight clothing as this will smear/ smudge your tan during the develop time. *please do not wear leggings, jeans, socks afterwards.
AFTER - POST TAN.
WHILE YOUR TAN DEVELOPS:
-
absolutely - 100% no sweating + stay dry while your spray tan is developing. -
you will be provided a rinse/shower time based on your spray tan type. please follow this guidance for the best results possible. -
during your rinse, you will notice that the top layer of bronzer will be colored and it is advised to rinse until the water runs clear using your hands only. do not loofah or scrub during this first rinse. -
please note that it is advised to allow your spray tan to fully develop a full 24 hours. your color will continue to develop during this time even after you have rinsed. -
you may shower after a full 24 hours using a mild body wash. -
always pat skin dry - do not rub skin with towel harshly. -
do not use bar soap or heavily fragranced soaps+ lotions. these contain high alcohol content and will strip your tan color quickly. -
if you find any darker spots after your rinse, this is normal as some bronzer may remain on drier skin spots. simply rinse again w/ very light rubbing.
MAINTAINING YOUR TAN.
- the average spray tan can last from 5-9 days and completely depends on your skin type, condition, products used and other various factors.
-
it is highly recommended to choose high quality products made for spray tans wherever possible. *ask us about these at your session. -
it is essential to use a quality lotion 2x a day to help your skin remain moisturized. moisturized skin will help your tan last a bit longer. -
as your skin naturally recycles, your tan will begin to fade and you should begin to lightly exfoilate. this will help your skin appear less blotchy for natural fading. -
to help remove final shades of fading spray tan, you can soak in a warm bath and further exfoilate your skin w/ a dry washcloth. -
after your spray tan, we suggest not using exfoilating face products for a few days. -
for your face: use a mild face wash and moisturize as usual. your face is likely the place that your spray tan will fade faster and this usually due to the products that we use daily in our skincare routine. *also just an FYI insider tip: we find that face cleaning wipes have more alcohol and will likely remove tan faster as well.
VERY IMPORTANT - PLEASE REVIEW.
- spray tans do not protect your skin from sunburn and overexposure to uv rays.
