Following the pre and post tanning advice below will help ensure that you’ll be left with a natural sun-kissed look and long lasting results.

BEFORE:

• If you are taking medication please inform your tanning consultant before your spray tan
• If this is your first spray tan with us, a patch test must be done no less than 24 hours prior to your treatment
• Avoid use of any self-tanning products for 1 week prior to your spray tan
• Wax or shave at least 24 hours prior to your treatment
• On the day of your treatment do not wear any make-up, perfume, deodorant, body oils/lotions as these may react with the tanning agents
• Wear loose dark clothing and sandals or flip flops

DURING:

• Relax while your tanning consultant carries out the treatment
• ‘Sticky Feet’ will be applied to the soles of your feet to prevent any discolouration
• Barrier cream will be applied to any dry skin areas, hands, elbows, knees and feet to ensure your spray tan blends naturally
• Your spray tan will be expertly applied, taking no more than 15 minutes
• Allow a few minutes after your spray tan has been completed before getting dressed

AFTER:

• Immediately after your spray tan, wear loose dark clothing
• Do not apply any products over the developing tan (your tanning consultant will tell you how much time is needed for colour development)

During the developing time:

• Avoid any other beauty or hair treatments
• Avoid any activities that may make you perspire
• Avoid hot drinks or brushing your teeth as this can cause colour stripping around the mouth
• Do not shower or get your skin wet
• After your tan has developed, rinse off the remaining guide colour. Once the water runs clear, gently wash yourself with a mild soap
• Avoid products containing AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids) as they may strip your colour
• Avoid swimming pools and hot tubs as the water treatments will fade your tan prematurely
• Use the recommended aftercare products to keep your skin hydrated and your tan long-lasting
