For the optimal sunless tanning experience, make sure you follow our recommendations for preparation and aftercare.  This will ensure you receive the best results possible.

                                        

Preparation

    

o       Shower.

o       Shave or wax at least 1 day prior to your spray tanning appointment.

o       Exfoliate with a non-abrasive exfoliant.

o       Remove any lotion, deodorant, or makeup before your spray session.  This will act as a barrier preventing the solution from absorbing properly.

o       Please plan your day ahead: avoid swimming, bathing, and heavy exercise for at least 12 hours to ensure the best results.

o       Wear loose, dark clothing and open toed sandals after your sunless session.

 

            

   

 

Second Application

 

Having a second application within three days

lengthens and deepens the tan.

 

 Like any beauty routine, proper preparation, skincare, and upkeep are required to make the most of your

Platinum Tan.

 

And finally...show off your tan...

You look Fabulous!

 

Aftercare

&

Maintenance

 

Once your beautiful sunless tan has been applied, you will aim to keep it for as long as you can. Following these simple guidelines should help ensure that your spray tan lasts for around 7- 14 days, fading gradually and evenly just like a real tan!

 

o       For optimal results wait at least 12 hours to shower or sweat.  You will see color wash off on your first shower.  What you see washing off is the immediate cosmetic bronzer and what’s left behind is a beautiful sunless tan.

o       Moisturize daily, especially after bathing, to maintain your sunless tan.

o       We recommend using our tan extending moisturizers as this keeps your color fresh and vibrant, promotes even fading and ensures the longest lasting sunless tan possible.

o       Scrubbing, exfoliating, shaving, and waxing will cause the tan to fade more quickly.

o       Remember to wear a sunscreen.  Sunless products do not contain sunscreen.
