Pre-care steps to ensure your spray tan looks even and lasts longer:
Exfoliate
Exfoliating Mits Available for $5
Exfoliate your skin thoroughly 24 hours before your spray tan to remove dead skin cells. This helps the tan adhere better and last longer.
Shave or Wax
Shave or wax at least 24 hours before your appointment. This allows your pores to close and prevents the tanning solution from settling into them. Avoid shaving or waxing immediately before your spray tan, as this can cause irritation and uneven application.
Avoid Moisturizers and Oils
On the day of your spray tan, avoid using moisturizers, oils, perfumes, or deodorants. These can create a barrier on your skin and prevent the tanning solution from absorbing evenly.
Choose Loose, Dark Clothing

Wear loose, dark clothing to your appointment to prevent the tan from rubbing off on your clothes and to avoid pressure marks on your skin. Avoid wearing tight clothing and undergarments immediately after the tan.
Remove Makeup and Jewelry
Remove all makeup, jewelry, and accessories before your spray tan. This ensures an even application on all areas of your skin.
Plan Your Timing
Schedule your spray tan at least a day before any important events to allow the tan to develop fully and to make sure you can rinse off any excess solution. Avoid getting wet (e.g., showering, swimming, sweating) for at least 8-12 hours after your spray tan to allow the color to develop properly.
