Exfoliate the skin using a gentle, oil-free exfoliating scrub or a dry brush to remove dead skin cells. Pay extra attention to dry areas like elbows, knees, and ankles.

​

Shave or Wax - doing this at least 24 hours in advance will help avoid irritation or uneven absorption.

Avoid Lotions, Perfumes & Deodorants. These can create a barrier and cause streaking. If you need to use these, try and shower before coming to your appointment. 

​

Wear Loose, Dark Clothing to your appointment.

No showering, sweating, or wearing tight clothes during the development period.

​

If sleeping in tan, sleep in long sleeves and long pants to avoid skin on skin contact.

​

Rinse off with lukewarm water (typically 8-12 hours later depending on type of tan). Avoid using soap on the first rinse.

Moisturize daily.

​

Avoid exfoliation & long showers - pat dry with towel instead of rubbing body.

​

Avoid being in chlorine or any water for too long.
