- Do not shower for at least 6 to 8 hours after the spray tan solution has been applied. This waiting period allows maximum tanning solution absorption for the skin.
- After the waiting period has passed, shower in warm water (it should not be too hot) and use a light, gentle body wash. The bronzer will run out, and when the water is no longer brown, pat dry yourself with a towel.
- Avoid activities that will make you sweat. This means no exercises, sports, dancing or jogging. You should also avoid the sun to prevent sweating. Sweating creates streaks in the tan.
- Spray tan before and after care involves avoiding chlorinated swimming pools that easily react with the tanning solution and cause an uneven fade.
- Moisturising the skin daily will help make the tan last longer, as well as help it to fade evenly.
- Do not use lotions or creams on your skin which contain Alpha Hydroxyl Acids (AHA’s) or Glycolic Acid as they exfoliate the skin. Use a gentle body wash.
- Once you have bathed after the tanning session (after 6-8 hours), only then should you use perfumes, deodorants and makeup.
- Do not touch your body while your spray tan is drying off. This can leave finger prints on your body!
