Preparing for a spray tan can help ensure you get even coverage and long-lasting results. Here’s how to get ready:
-
Exfoliate: About 24 hours before your spray tan, gently exfoliate your skin to remove dead skin cells. Focus on rough areas like elbows, knees, ankles, and heels.
-
Shave or Wax: If you plan to shave or wax, do so at least 24 hours before your appointment to avoid irritation.
-
Avoid Moisturisers and Deodorants: On the day of your tan, avoid applying moisturisers, deodorants, or perfumes as these can create a barrier on your skin that affects the tan application.
-
Wear Loose Clothing: After your spray tan, wear loose, dark clothing and flip-flops to avoid rubbing off the tan.
-
Schedule Wisely: Plan your spray tan at least a day before any special event. This gives the tan time to develop and allows for any touch-ups if necessary.
-
Prep Your Skin: Make sure your skin is clean and free of any products. Shower before your appointment but avoid using oil-based shower creams as they can interfere with the tan's absorption.
Following these steps can help you achieve a beautifully even and natural-looking tan. Enjoy your glow!
