Spray Tanning

Pre-treatment Advice

• You may undergo a patch test at least 24 hours prior to your appointment. This is particularly recommended if you have never had a spray tan or you have particularly sensitive skin or allergies. This can be booked through the online booking system under “Spray Tanning”.Alternatively, you can sign to confirm you have declined a patch test at the time of your appointment.
• At least 8 – 12 hours before your spray tan, exfoliate using a pH balanced and oil-free exfoliating product or an exfoliating mitt
• Carry out hair removal (waxing/shaving) at least 24 hours prior to tanning. This allows protein and amino acids to rebuild on the skin (this is what the tanning agent tans and if they are not present on the skin, you may not reach optimum development)
• Avoid moisturizing for 24 hours prior to tanning as, even after showering, residue can remain on the skin and create a barrier
• Come to your appointment with completely clean skin, no moisturizer, deodorant, perfume, body oils, lotions or makeup. Ideally, take a shower or bath prior to coming to your appointment. We will apply barrier cream where it is required
• Up your water intake and eat leafy vegetables including kale, spinach and rocket, which are high in lysine, to prepare your skin for the best spray tan result
• Hormones, stress, exhaustion and any herbal or prescribed medication may affect your tan so be aware of this when booking your spray tan appointment

Immediately after your tan

• Remember the instant colour you see if only a guiding bronzer. Your tan will develop with 6-8 hours
• Wear loose dark clothing and flip-flops after your tan and avoid wearing a bra. Keep skin covered to prevent the transfer to the fabric when sitting
• Keep your skin completely dry for 6 -8 hours
• Do not apply cosmetics of skincare products over the developing tan
• Avoid activities that make you perspire for 6-8 hours after the tan is applied

After your tan has developed

• The tan can be left on overnight but avoid sweating in bed to prevent the transfer to bed sheets
• Shower after 8-12 hours for pale or hard to tan skin
• Shower after 6-8 hours for medium to dark skin
• Shower with warm water. Once the water runs clear, use a pH-balanced shower gel and pat the skin dry. Ensure that the shower gel is free from perfume and essential oils as these will strip your colour faster
• Avoid skin care products containing alpha hydroxyl acids (AHAs) as they will strip your tan
• Do not shave for 24 hours as this removes layers of skin and will remove the tan too
• Moisturise daily with a product that does not contain essential oils.
