Imagine getting that sun-kissed glow without any exposure to harmful UV rays!
As an establishment focused on all things skin, sunless tanning helps avoid serious damage, preventing you from developing wrinkles, sunspots (hyperpigmentation), or leathery, textured skin. But most importantly, you're not being exposed to direct UV rays, which can increase your chances of developing skin cancer.
HOW TO PREPARE FOR YOUR SUNLESS TANNING SESSION
Preparing for your spray tan will determine how your glow will turn out and how long it will last. To get the most out of your tan you'll want to:
- Shower at least 3 hours before your appointment.
- Shave, wax and EXFOLIATE* the skin at least 24 hours prior to the appointment. It's important to allow the amino acids to reconstruct as the DHA needs amino acids to develop. Also, the pores need time to close before the application otherwise it may leave dark spots.
- Do not use lotion, gel, wax, shaving cream or other oil-based products as they could leave residues on the skin and prevent the solution from developing correctly.
- Do not wear makeup, cream, sunscreen, perfume or deodorant the day of your appointment.
- Moisturise the skin days prior to the session (not the day of the appointment though!)
- The application can be done with or without undergarments or a bathing suit.
- Ensure you wear loose and dark coloured clothing when leaving your appointment.
*Exfoliation is the secret to a perfect sunless tan! The skin needs to be clean and smooth to
ensure an even base for the tan to develop properly. A good exfoliation routine will help
eliminate dead skin cells, impurities, and old tan residue present on the skin to avoid
patchiness and uneven results.
