It's Tanning Time!
The Experts of glowing skin
Spray Tan your way to Glowing
We’ll start off by saying, spray tans are the perfect option when you need a glow in a hurry. Last minute event commitment? Get a spray tan! No time to tan before vacation? Get a spray tan! Just feeling blah? Get a spray tan! They offer an instant confidence boost that lasts up to a week. The solution that is sprayed onto your skin is also formulated with skincare ingredients to support your overall skin health.
Day Before your Tan
You want to lotion regularly on the days leading up to your spray tan, but not the morning of the spray tan.
-It’s very important to exfoliate and shave the day before your spray tan to prep the skin so it will absorb the spray tan solution evenly and deeply.
-We always suggest using a dry brush before a spray tan, then shower. Dry brushing is the best way to exfoliate the skin before your spray tan. It’s also very good for detoxing the skin.
-You don’t want to exfoliate and shave the day of the tan because it leaves your follicles open for the bronzer to settle into and create dark brown dots on your legs.
Day of your Tan
Do not apply any lotion or deodorant the morning of your tan. If you want, you can take a quick cold water rinse the morning of the tan to wash off sweat or residual lotions. (Lotions and oils act as a repellent to the tan.)
-This can be awkward, but trust us these gals have seen it all. Your overall tan will look so much better if you go naked. Definitely a personal preference, but we do suggest getting your face spray tanned. You seriously don’t have to wear makeup for days, the glow is there.
A few other tricks:
-
Do not wear any jewlery
-
Have your tech spray your hands in a ‘claw hand.’
-
Stick your bum in the air to avoid getting that spray tan crease that you will see in a bathing suit
-
Wipe down bottoms of feet, between toes, and between your fingers after
After Care
-Wear loose clothes after your tan. The first 8 hours is crucial to ensure you don’t have any weird marks on your skin.
-Do not shower for a least 8 hours. Also, do not workout until your spray tan has set for at least 8 hours.
-Your aftercare is important. Keeping the skin hydrated will help your tan last longer. I have found that regular lotion will help keep the tan longer versus using body oils. And of course, do not dry brush until your tan has worn off.
-And violà…you look like you’ve spent the afternoon in St. Barths laying in the Carribean sunshine!
