Description
I am a Beauty Therapist and trained in Advanced Tanning Techniques by Marissa Carter from Cocoa Brown Tan. Here are some of my tips for achieving the perfect tan. Prepping your skin properly will help you get longer lasting results from your spray tan.
The day before
- Exfoliate your skin, this removes dead skin cells and results in a smoother application and longer lasting tan.
- All waxing, shaving and exfoliation MUST be carried out 24 hrs beforehand, to ensure that your pores have had time to close.
- Moisturise your skin top to toe!
On the day
- Shower but do not apply any moisturisers, deodorants or perfumes on the day of your spray tan. It is also best not to shower or bathe directly before the treatment; you want your skin dry and clean.
After your spray tan
- Wear loose dark clothing. Avoid wearing tight clothes and underwear including bra and socks.
- No sweating, swimming, getting wet or exercising until your first shower after your spray tan. Doing so may cause streaks.
- Be careful when washing hands as this is where tan tends to fade from first. Antibacterial gel on your palms is great for sparing your hands while the tan develops.
Maintenance
- Pat dry after your shower. Vigorous rubbing will exfoliate your skin and your tan will not last as long.
- Shaving your legs will fade your tan and using cream hair removal such as Veet will remove the tan.
- Moisturising extends the life of your tan and it helps your tan to fade more evenly.
- To make your tan last even longer, use a body moisturiser with a gradual tanner in it as this will boost and maintain the colour.
- Once you are ready to remove the tan I would recommend using a body scrub in gentle circular motions and moisturising well afterwards
