Your tan will typically last 5–10 days, depending on your skin type and how well you follow aftercare. Proper hydration and gentle products will help extend the life of your tan.

When should I schedule my spray tan?

• Events/Weddings: 2-3 days before

This allows your tan to fully develop and settle into the skin.

What’s the difference between Signature and Rapid tans?

SPRAY TAN PRE + POST CARE GUIDE

A seamless, even result is created through both preparation and aftercare.
Each step directly impacts how your tan develops, wears, and fades.

PRE-TAN PREPARATION

48–24 HOURS BEFORE

✔ Exfoliate thoroughly

• Focus on dry areas: elbows, knees, ankles, hands

• Use a non-oil-based scrub or exfoliating mitt
  → Removes buildup and creates a smooth surface

✔ Shave or wax

• Complete all hair removal at least 24 hours prior
  → Prevents irritation and uneven development

✔ Avoid oil-based products

• No oil scrubs, body oils, or heavy conditioners
  → Oils create a barrier on the skin

24 HOURS BEFORE

✔ Avoid active skincare or treatments

• No facials, peels, retinol, or acids

✔ Lightly moisturize if needed

• Use a light, oil-free lotion only if skin is very dry

DAY OF YOUR APPOINTMENT

✔ Shower before your appointment
Skin must be completely clean and product-free

✔ Do NOT apply:

• Lotion

• Oils

• Perfume

• Deodorant

• Makeup

✔ Avoid Dove products and bar soaps
→ These leave a residue that can affect development

✔ Wear loose, dark clothing

• Avoid tight bras, leggings, or anything restrictive

• Flip flops or open shoes recommended

✔ Prepare your nails and hands

• Remove lotions from hands and cuticles

• Lightly exfoliate hands

IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOUR TAN

✔ Avoid water and sweating

• No showers, workouts, or humidity

✔ Avoid tight clothing
→ Friction can affect development

✔ Avoid red or bright-colored fabrics
→ Dye may transfer onto the skin

✔ Expect bronzer transfer
→ This is normal and will rinse off

DEVELOPMENT TIME

• Signature Tan: 8–12 hours

• Rapid Tan: 2–3 hours (based on desired depth)

FIRST RINSE

✔ Rinse with lukewarm water only
✔ No soap, shaving, or scrubs
✔ Water will run brown—this is cosmetic bronzer

POST-TAN AFTERCARE (24+ HOURS)

✔ Moisturize daily
→ This is key for even fading and longevity

✔ Use gentle body wash
→ Avoid harsh or exfoliating products

✔ Avoid:

• Long hot showers

• Pools, hot tubs, saunas

• Early exfoliation

✔ Pat skin dry
→ Avoid rubbing with towels

TO MAINTAIN YOUR TAN

✔ Keep skin hydrated
✔ Avoid early exfoliation
✔ Tan will fade evenly over 5–10 days

IMPORTANT TO KNOW

• Results vary based on skin type, prep, and aftercare

• Proper preparation = smoother, longer-lasting results

COMMON ISSUES (IF PREP IS NOT FOLLOWED)

• Uneven development

• Patchiness or streaking

• Shorter tan lifespan

FINAL NOTE

Your spray tan is only as good as the preparation and care that goes into it.
The more intentional the process, the more seamless the result.

Not a full-face spray. Facial skin renews quickly, and daily cleansing and exfoliating make face tans fade patchy, settle into pores and around the hairline, and emphasize texture. Instead, I softly contour your face to blend with your body and recommend DHA bronzing drops mixed into your daily moisturizer for a seamless, even match. Getting tanned somewhere else before your wedding? Ask them to skip your face too.
