Question 1

My skin is peeling, can I still get a spray tan?

Absolutely not! A spray tan will speed up the peeling process leaving you patchy.

Question 4

How many days before an event should I get a tan?

Accepted Answer

We recommend 2 days prior to any event. If you’re going on holiday, the day before leaving is best.

Question 5

How do I prepare for my appointment?

Accepted Answer

Shave & Exfoliate:
Shave all unwanted hair and exfoliate head to toe using an exfoliating mitt the night before your appointment.

Exfoliating is key to a flawless tan and even more imperative if you have existing tan on. Tanning over existing tan results in a patchy and uneven tan.

No Products:
On the day of your spray tan, avoid wearing any deodorant, lotion or make up. These products can create a barrier between your skin and the DHA, resulting in an uneven tan or green armpits.

Showering:
To ensure your tan lasts, it's best to avoid showering less than four hours before your appointment. Showering too close can strip essential oils from your skin which help your tan last. If you need to shower within that timeframe, keep it brief and use lukewarm water to prevent your pores from opening.

Question 6

What do I wear during and after?

Accepted Answer

Wear dark, loose-fitted clothing to your appointment that you can also wear post spray.

During the appointment, you can wear whatever you feel most comfortable in. Bikini, thong, naked, we don’t mind!

Question 7

What should I avoid?

Accepted Answer

- Hot tubs & swimming pools

- Exercise or sweating for at least 24 hours.
Note: please be aware sweat may affect your tan even if you wait longer than 24 hours

- Dove wash or soap

- Any lotions or products that contain oils

Question 8

Time to rinse, what do I do?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely NO soap.
A really slow rinse with luke-warm water is best. Only use your hands to remove the bronzer, and focus your attention to your legs, behind your arms, etc.
The #1 cause for streaks is that the bronzer was not rinsed off properly and can stain the skin for a few days.

Question 9

What do I do if I have streaks after showering?

Accepted Answer

Jump back in the shower and have another rinse. If that doesn’t help, rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab will help remove the streak. Keep in mind that it will also remove the tan in the area you apply it to and you will need to respray if that happens.

Question 10

When can I apply lotion?

Accepted Answer

Wait 12 hours AFTER your initial rinse before applying any kind of lotion. Moisturising is the key to prolong your spray tan so moisturising twice daily will give you the best results. It’s also important to stay hydrated and drink lots of water throughout the day.

Question 11

How do I take care of my tan?

Accepted Answer

Rinse time:

Please rinse at the time we have advised. When rinsing, use warm water and no soap to rinse off the top coat until the water runs clear.

Gently pat your skin dry and moisturise immediately after.

Note: Please wait 24 hours to shower with soap.

Moisturise:

Your tan needs moisture to last, so moisturising every morning and night will prolong your tan.

Question 12

Will spray tanning stain my bed sheets, clothes, and/or dress?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the first few days minimum cosmetic bronzer might minimally rub off on your clothes etc. But, most cosmetic bronzer does rinse off.

Question 13

Will jacuzzis, pools, or saunas remove my tan?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it will remove majority of the tan and/or lighten it. Seawater, chlorine, and hot tubs can accelerate the fading of the tan. I recommend wearing waterproof sunscreen to help repel the water.

Question 14

Cancellation Policy

Accepted Answer

Should you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please do so at least 24 hours prior to your appointment. 
All cancellations made with less than 24 hours notice will be charged the full service fee.
