Preparation and Aftercare

Preparation

Exfoliate and moisturise the night before your tan, paying attention to dry areas such as knees, elbows and ankles.
Wax/shave at least 24 hours before your tan to allow pores time to close, otherwise a dotting effect may occur.
Do not use moisturiser on the day of your tan.
Remove make-up, deodorant, perfume and creams prior to having your tan.
Wear underwear/a bikini or swimsuit, or anything else you feel comfortable in for your treatment.

Wear loose dark clothing after your tan. Any tight clothing may cause wear marks.
Do not shower or bathe for 6-8 hours (the development period).
Do not exercise or swim during the development period, as sweating or prolonged exposure to water will fade your new tan.
Try not to touch your skin during the development time as your palms may get stained.
Moisturise, moisturise, moisturise! This helps to keep your tan for longer.
Avoid long hot baths as they speed up the exfoliation process.
Dab or pat skin dry after a shower, do not rub.
After 5 days exfoliate and moisturise to slowly remove the tan and to keep it looking natural.
