Open pores right after a shower causes the spray tan solution to soak into the skin.

For best results we recommend showering and exfoliating 24 hours before your spray tan. This will ensure your pores are closed so that the solution can adhere to the skin.

We suggest a mixture of baking soda and or sugar and water for your exfoliant. Make a paste, scrub it on your skin, rinse and voila! We recommend this exfoliant for a few reasons.  First, it will not interfere with the organic nature of the spray tan solution. Many products contain "hidden" ingredients leaving a residue on the skin which creates a barrier for the DHA affecting the full development process of your spray tan. Second, why waste the money on fancy, expensive products when you probably already have these items at home? We suggest putting the "extra" spends towards your after care products which are good for your skin and will extend the life of your spray tan.  

It is best to get manicures, pedicures, facial waxing, body waxing and shaving done before your spray tan session.

Avoid lotions, makeup, deodorant and perfumes the day of your session.

Again, any skin additives can affect how the spray tan adheres to your skin creating a barrier hindering the development of the DHA. Makeup wipes will be provided at the time of your appointment if needed.

Chap sticks, lipsticks, glosses and mascaras are okay to have on during your tan.
