Wear Dark, Loose Clothing: For the first 12 hours after application, opt for dark and loose-fitting clothing. This helps prevent any smudging or uneven coloration.
Nighttime Attire: When sleeping the night after your tan, wear dark pants and long-sleeved clothing to prevent the tan from transferring onto your sheets.
Daily Moisturizing: After each shower, apply an alcohol-free moisturizer to your skin. This helps maintain your tan's smoothness and longevity.
Pat Dry, Don't Rub: When drying your skin, always pat gently. Avoid rubbing your towel against your skin. Also, refrain from rubbing your face with your hands and avoid scratching.
First Shower: We recommend using lukewarm water for your first shower after the tan application.
Express Tan Option: If you've achieved your desired tone with the Express tan, you can use a natural soap in your first shower to stop further color development. For those who wish to maintain the current tone, start with a room temperature-warm shower without soap, ensuring it matches your liking. Then, take another shower and softly massage your body with a light, natural soap. This stops the 24-hour development time.
Tanning Extender:Apply our tanning extender to prolong the life of your tan.
DON’T
No Showering, Washing Hands, or Physical Activity while the tan is developing: wait after your tan has developed before showering, washing your hands, or engaging in any physical activities that may lead to sweating.
Avoid Bathing or Excessive Sweating: For the best tan development and longevity, try to refrain from bathing or sweating excessively for the specified time period. In general, avoid using any soap for the first 24 hours after your tan.
Steer Clear of Pools, Jacuzzis, or Chlorinated Waters: Chlorine can cause your tan to fade faster, so it's best to avoid these during the initial period after your spray tan.
No Abrasive Loofahs or Exfoliators: Don't use abrasive loofahs or exfoliators that might damage the smoothness of your tan. You can reintroduce these products after your tan has faded.
Avoid Moisturizers, Perfumes, or Makeup for the First 24 Hours: The first 24 hours are crucial for your tan to develop fully. Refrain from using moisturizers, perfumes, or makeup during this time.
Shave or Wax for 24-48 Hours before your tan: This is recommended to allow time for your pores to close.
Short, Lukewarm Showers: Avoid long showers with hot water, as this can negatively affect your tan's longevity.
