EXFOLIATE
2-3 DAYS LEADING UP TO YOUR TAN IS THE PERFECT TIME TO BE EXFOLIATING + MOISTURIZING YOUR SKIN. WHEN THE TAN IS APPLIED TO FRESH, HYDRATED SKIN, THE TAN LASTS MUCH LONGER.
*AVOID MOISTURIZING (INCLUDING ANY OILS) THE DAY OF APPOINTMENT.
SHAVING AND WAXING
HAIR REMOVAL PRIOR TO YOUR APPOINTMENT IS MOST IDEAL. WAX APPOINTMENTS SHOULD BE COMPLETED AT LEAST 1-2 DAYS PRIOR TO YOUR SPRAY TAN APPOINTMENT. PLEASE DO NOT WAX SAME DAY.
DAY OF
DO NOT MOISTURIZE, WEAR MAKEUP, OR DEODORANT BEFORE YOUR SPRAY TAN UNLESS YOU ARE ABLE TO REMOVE THEM PROPERLY PRIOR TO YOUR SPRAY TAN.
WHAT TO WEAR TO YOUR APPOINTMENT
DARK, LOOSE CLOTHING IS ESSENTIAL FOR AFTER YOUR SPRAY TAN. NO TIGHT FITTING SOCKS AND SHOES. FLIP FLOP OR SLIDES ARE MOST IDEAL.
DURING YOUR TAN
FEMALE CLIENTS ARE WELCOME TO WEAR (OR NOT WEAR) WHATEVER THEY ARE MOST COMFORTABLE WITH. MALE CLIENTS ARE EXPECTED TO WEAR UNDER GARMENTS.
STOP USING ANY RETINOL PRODUCTS 2-3 DAYS PRIOR TO YOUR SPRAY TAN.

AFTER YOUR SPRAY TANNING APPOINTMENT IT’S IMPORTANT TO TRY NOT TO DISTURB THE SOLUTION AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. FOLLOW THESE AFTERCARE TIPS TO GET LONG-LASTING RESULTS!
DURING THE DEVELOPMENT PERIOD:
PLEASE REFER TO YOUR AFTERCARE CARD FOR PROCESSING TIMES AS ADVISED BY YOUR SPRAY TAN ARTIST.AFTER THE DEVELOPMENT PERIOD, FOR BEST RESULTS PLEASE AVOID ANY BODY WASHES, LOTIONS AND SUNSCREENS THAT CONTAIN ALCOHOL, PARABENS, MINERAL OR PETROLEUM OIL, SULFATES, OR PERFUMES AS THEY CAN AFFECT THE OUTCOME OF THE COLOR ESPECIALLY ANY DOVE BODY PRODUCTS. THIS INCLUDES PERFUMES WITH ALCOHOL.
DO NOT EXFOLIATE THE SKIN AFTER YOUR SPRAY TAN HAS BEEN APPLIED AND SET. ONLY ONCE THE SOLUTION STARTS TO FADE SHOULD YOU EXFOLIATE THE SKIN AGAIN IN ORDER TO REMOVE THE OLD TAN RESIDUE AND PREPARE FOR YOUR NEXT APPOINTMENT.EXCESSIVE SWEATING, HOT TUBS, SAUNAS, LONG BATHS, AND POOLS CAN CAUSE A FASTER FADE SO AVOID THEM IF POSSIBLE.
