The first rinse after your spray tan application should be with WARM WATER ONLY (NO SOAP).

 Do not shower for 6 to 8 hours after your spray tan application.   Showering before the time frame may lighten up your color and impact the results of the spray tan.

Do not wash your face before your first shower even before bed.

No sweating, swimming, getting wet or exercising until your first shower after your spray tan.  

There is a bronzer in the solution, which means that you will have some color immediately after you are sprayed.  The color will continue to darken as the solution develops.  Your color will lighten after you shower off the bronzer.  You will see color coming off in your first shower. This is normal.  Your spray tan is not washing off, it is just bronzer.

Pat dry after every shower.  Vigorous rubbing will exfoliate your skin and your tan will not last as long.

Do not exfoliate with loofas, body scrubs, body washes or soaps with exfoliating beads until your tan starts to fade away (7 to 12) days. 

We recommend showering with  Glo Soap bar, an organic soap specifically made for sunless tanning.  It is sulfate free, infused with coconut oil, enriched with goat's milk and can be used with any sunless tanning products.   

Moisturizing and hydration are two very important steps to maintain your spray tan. Our Sjolie tan extender will hydrate the skin adding life and vibrancy to your spray tan.  Be sure to also drink plenty of water! 

Always wear sunscreen daily but especially when out in the sun. Choosing sunscreens that are free of harsh chemicals will not strip your spray tan . For a full list of our suggested CLEAN and safe sunscreen lines please visit the Skincare/Sunscreen tab on our main page.

Try to avoid the ocean or the pool for at least one day after your spray tan.  Salt water and chlorine may make your tan fade faster, however it is not going to remove the tan immediately.
