Spray Tan Aftercare
- Bring and wear dark, loose clothing for after your treatment, any tight clothing or underwear may cause wear marks.
- Wear flip-flops or loose fitting shoes.
- Do not shower or bathe for at least 8 hours (the development period) - preferably overnight.
- Do not exercise or swim during the development period.
- Try not to touch your skin during development time. After your tan, your therapist will show you that your hands are clear of tanning solution. Any marks on your hands, therefore, are due to your hands touching the developing tan. You need to be aware that once this has developed, nothing will remove it from your palms. Top tip: wear loose socks over your hands in bed.
- After showering / bathing, pat dry only.
- Moisturise, moisturise and moisturise some more. Morning and night.
- After day 5, exfoliate on a daily basis, to help your skin absorb even more moisturiser and keep it looking and feeling gorgeous.
- Long exposure to water and sweating from exercise will fade your spray tan. Your outer cells will start to soak up water which dilutes the effect of the tan. The longer you are in water, the lighter your tan will get.
