A day or two before your appointment, you should shave and exfoliate your skin well to rid it of old skin cells. This will help avoid a blotchy tan in those dry skin areas.

On the day of your appointment, I recommend showering to remove any residual make-up, moisturizer, perfumes, and deodorant before your application.

During application, I recommend wearing some type of undergarment on your lower half, and any client under the age of 18 must wear some type of undergarments, i.e. a dark-colored bathing suit or similar. 

I also recommend wearing dark, loose-fitting clothing immediately after because the bronzer may come off onto your clothing. It usually washes out, but there are some fabrics it may not wash out of (i.e., Spandex, Nylon—I use white cotton towels and have spilled a ton of solution on them and they always come out white again.)

Avoid water (showering, swimming, washing the dog, etc.), vigorous exercise, and applying any perfumes or moisturizers until after your shower.

The application process takes less than 10 minutes. As the tan develops, you may appear darker and will see some color wash off after your first shower. Don’t be alarmed, the tanning solutions I use have bronzing elements, in order to see immediate results that are typically darker than the actual tan. This helps me gauge what areas I may have missed or would need to touch up. The bronzers wash off and you will be left with a fabulous, natural-looking tan.
