Preparing for Body Bronzing™ Spray-On Tan Treatment
Exfoliate: Shower and exfoliate prior to your tanning session using a washcloth with a non-oily scrub. You can mix baking soda with a non-moisturizing liquid soap if you do not have an exfoliating product.
Do not moisturize: Be sure all lotions, creams, and makeup or other toiletries are removed from the skin before a session. Deodorant should be limited to the underarm area. It is not recommended to use spray deodorant, however, if you must use it, be sure to wipe areas around the underarm area. If you are unable to shower just prior to your tanning session, we have wipes to remove makeup and excess deodorant. For an additional $5.00 fee we can provide a full body exfoliating product as part of your tanning session.
Shave: For best results, waxing or shaving should be done 8 hours prior to tanning.
Manicure/Pedicure: Should be done prior to tanning session, preferably the day before.
What to wear during your tanning session: Attire for women is whatever you are comfortable with. Many things can be done to minimize tan lines. The key is your comfort level. Attire for men is boxers, swim trunks or shorts.
Be certain to bring a dark-colored bathing suit (or your garment of preference). Our tanning solution washes out of most clothing very easily but tends to stain light-colored nylon and other light-colored synthetic materials. If you do not have an appropriate bathing suit, disposable bras and thongs can be provided.
What to bring:
- Dark-colored bathing suit (or your garment of preference)
- Dark, loose-fitting clothing to be worn after your tanning session
- Towel for your car
- Flip-flops
Bring dark, loose clothing to your appointment to wear home after your tan. Tight fitting clothing can hinder tanning results. Plan not to get wet, exercise or perspire for 8 to 12 hours. After that time, the product can be showered off and normal activities can be resumed. You will see some color washing off the first time you shower. This is just the surface color that was applied; your skin will continue to tan for 24 hours as the tanning solution develops.
