Barrier cream is not to be put on the bottom of your feet. *Use lip balm on lips, wear nose filter and eye coverage as offered in waiver. You may opt out. *For best results, it may take up to three sessions to develop your desired color. Maintaining your color is possible with subsequent visits every five to seven days. | |
| To Prolong the Length of the Tan | |
|
* Wear loose dark clothing after your spray tan, this will prevent bronzer from showing up on lighter clothing and prevent the tanning solution from rubbing off. * Allow the initial application of the tan to remain on the skin for at least six to eight hours but ideally for twenty four hours. This will allow your tan to fully develop and will ensure the longest lasting results. * The length of time your spray tan will last depends on your skin type, the moisturizers and the frequency you tan. Healthy, hydrated skin will maintain result longer and achieve color faster. |
|
* Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!! *Use a sharp razor for shaving, pat dry after shaving. * Avoid the following if possible: Acne products, Alpha hydroxy acids, Anti-Aging Products, body hair bleach products, deodorant soaps, hair removal products, facial masks and exfoliating scrubs, prolonged exposure to chlorine pools or salt water, loofahs, scrub mitts. |
