Top tips for before your spray tan

 

• Exfoliate regularly especially the night before your spray tan and NOT on the day of your tan. Pay particular attention to dry areas such as knees, elbows, feet and hands.

• Wax/shave or have eyelash/eyebrow tinting 24/48 hours prior to treatment.

• DO NOT moisturise or use deodorant and perfume before your tan as they can act as a barrier.

• Paint nails and toenails, especially if you have acrylics on or similar.

• Wear/bring loose dark clothing and flip flops or loose fitting shoes. Tight clothing will cause the tan to rub off during the developing stage.

• We may advise on a patch test, especially if you have sensitive skin.

• It is advisable to remove contact lenses before the tan, to avoid contamination.

• Remove all jewellery.
