Achieving a flawless, sun-kissed tan doesn’t just depend on the spray tanning session itself—it starts with proper preparation of your skin! We want to ensure you get the best results from your spray tan. Follow these essential steps to prepare your skin as best as possible for a radiant and natural-looking glow.
What is Sunless Spray Tanning?
Sunless spray tanning involves the application of a sunless tanning solution to your body using a mist or spray. This method provides a safe and effective way to achieve a beautiful tan without exposure to harmful UV rays.
Before Tanning: Prepare Your Skin
To ensure an even and long-lasting tan, follow these steps before your spray tanning appointment:
Remove Makeup: Come to your appointment with clean, makeup-free skin to allow the spray tan solution to adhere evenly.
Skip the Lotion and Deodorant: Avoid applying lotions, oils, or deodorants as they can create a barrier and prevent the spray tan from developing properly.
Shower and Exfoliate: Thoroughly cleanse your skin and exfoliate using a gentle scrub to remove dead skin cells. Focus on areas like elbows, knees, ankles, and heels to achieve a smooth surface.
Wear Dark, Loose Clothing: Choose loose-fitting, dark-colored clothing to wear after your appointment to avoid any transfer of the tan solution.
During Your Spray Tanning Session
First time? Don't worry. Our experienced technicians will guide you through a comfortable experience:
- Consultation: We’ll discuss your desired tan shade and address any questions or concerns you may have.
- Application: The Mystic tanning booth will apply the sunless tanning solution evenly to your body, ensuring a natural-looking tan.
- Drying Time: Allow the tan to dry completely before dressing to avoid smudging or streaking.
After Tanning: Maintain Your Glow
After your spray tanning session, follow these tips to extend the life of your tan and maintain its natural appearance:
- Let Your Tan Set: Allow the tan to set for 8-12 hours before showering or getting wet to allow the color to fully develop.
- Moisturize Regularly: Keep your skin hydrated by applying a moisturizer daily, especially after showering. This helps to extend the life of your tan and maintain its appearance.
- Avoid Water: Refrain from activities that may cause sweating or getting wet until your tan has fully developed.
