Remove all hair at least 24 hours before your appointment
No one likes streaky legs or irritated skin so please make sure you shave the day before your tan. We recommend 24 hours before your appointment. If you have to shave or wax the day of your appointment blast cold water onto your skin to close your pores and avoid a spotty look to your tan. 
 

Moisturise in the days leading up to your appointment - but not on the day of the appointment
Keep your skin glowing and hydrated to create the perfect canvas for your spray tan but do not moisturise before your tan on the day of your appointment (wait until straight after your initial wash off).

​

Manicures and Pedicures
Make sure that all Manicures and Pedicures are done before your tan. Our technicians will ensure your nails are wiped down and no excess tan is on your nails after your tan is applied.

​

Exfoliate / Remove all fake tan
Make sure you exfoliate before your appointment. The better you exfoliate the more flawless your tan will look. It is best not to get a tan over a tan or over sunburn where possible to ensure flawless results.

Soak your skin in a warm to hot bath for 10mins and then gently exfoliate the skin.
Ask us in salon for products that assist with getting your tan off effectively.

You do not want to use harsh chemicals or any alcohol base removers as these are extremely drying and ageing for the skin.A bath with essential oils or some gorgeous scented bath bombs and an exfoliating mitt is all you will need.

 

Don’t wash your hair after you exfoliate
Washing your hair can leave residue on your skin creating a barrier. No one wants uneven tan lines, save the hair washing until after the tan.

​

Remove Moisturiser, Make up, Deodorant & Perfume
Like shampoo and conditioner; moisturiser, make up and deodorant can leave a barrier on the skin affecting the skins PH levels which create a chemical reaction with tanning bronzers which can turn you green. No one likes green so avoid deodorant and moisturiser or let your tanning technician know

if you are wearing any.

​

Can i get a tan whilst pregnant or breastfeeding?

We stock solutions that are all natural, vegan, paraben free & cruelty free. We offer breast pads to breastfeeding mums to cover the area so your tan wont affect your feeding schedule. 

​

I have sensitive skin/psoriasis/eczema- can i still get a tan?

We do have several tanning solutions perfect for this, so make sure you tell us in your consultation so we know to use the proper solution for you. Ensure you are hydrating your skin in the lead up to your appointment. 

​

I have an event coming up. What is the best time to get my tan?

Two days prior to your event, to allow the tan to fully develop and then settle into your skin. This also ensures all the bronzer has washed off, so no transfer onto wedding dresses and special event outfits.
