The Prep

The most crucial parts of the tan. Your tan will ONLY be as good as the skin its on.

Skin that is not prepped properly will not result in the best tan possible. Please do not skip your prep!

-DO NOT SHOWER within 12 hours of your tan.

-24-48hrs prior, start exfoliating. An exfoliating mitt is best, a loofah won’t cut it! Skip the exfoliating scrubs for this step, water works fine.

-We recommend shaving at least 24hrs prior, do not shave same day of the tan.

-No lotions or potions after your final prep shower(s).

-No dove, oil of olay or method products of any kind.

-Native, natrium, cetaphil, cerave: ALL SAFE!!

The Aftercare

-Rinse time will be discussed at the time of your appointment, but please plan on 2-8hr rinse times.

-For the first rinse, water only. Use your hand to rinse off ALL the bronzer. If you see streaks after your shower, RINSE AGAIN!

-Lotion after your first rinse. Cerave, cetaphil, hempz, natrium-ALL SAFE.

-Avoid hot showers, no baths, and no hot tubs. Please note, long exposure in chlorinated water will break down your tan quicker and we cannot guarantee your tan will hold up as long as it could.

-Hydrate hydrate hydrate!! The longevity of your tan depends on hydrated skin. Lotion twice a day and drink lots of water.

-Avoid any active ingredients in skincare products. No ret/tret.

-Be gentle with your skin, an exfoliating or harsh products will cause a quicker and patchier fade.
