• Waxing, pedicures and facials should be done at least one day prior to tanning session.
• Take a shower and exfoliate properly using a body brush or quality scrub. Removing any dead cells
and body oils will help the sunless tanner penetrate your skin and give you the best results.
• Do not use deodorant, makeup, perfume or moisturizers prior to the tanning. Lotions can act as a
barrier & prevent the solution from contacting your skin.
• You may tan in the garment of your choice. Bathing suits and underwear work well or some women
prefer to go au natural. Men are required to wear underwear or bathing suit.
• Wear loose-fitting dark-colored clothing and flip-flops because some of the bronzer can rub off
on your clothing and shoes.
Immediately After Your Tanning Session
• Avoid perspiring, washing hands and other water activities as this may cause streaking.
• Do not put on tight clothing for least 4 hours.
• Do not exercise (first day). Perspiring immediately after tanning alters the chemical reaction
of the solution changing its color.
• Do not swim or immerse in water.
• Do not apply moisturizer.
• Wait at least 6 hours before showering. We recommend waiting until the next day and using
an alcohol-free shower gel. You will see color washing off the first time you shower-
this is normal.
Maintaining and Prolonging Your Tan
• Moisturize twice a day with alcohol free lotion. Hydrated skin makes your tan last longer.
Alcohol based products are drying to the skin making the tan fade quicker. We recommend
using a tan-extender lotion, which moisturizes and adds a hint of color while also adding
3-5 days to the life of your tan.
• Use sharp razors, avoid exfoliatin skin, hair removal and bleach products on your skin.
• Avoid long, hot baths or showers and pat dry with towel after showering.
•
Keep in mind that hot tubs, pools and oceans can cause your tan to fade faster. If you’re on
a fabulous vacation and can’t avoid these, use a waterproof sunscreen to seal it in.
• Although you feel and look tan, you ABSOLUTELY need to apply sunscreen when exposed to
the sun because your skin is not protected!
