24–48 Hours Before Your Appointment

• Exfoliate thoroughly, especially elbows, knees, and ankles

• Shave or wax at least 24 hours before your session

• Moisturize dry areas daily — but skip lotion the day of your tan

Day of Your Appointment

• Do not apply lotion, oils, deodorant, perfume, or makeup

• Wear dark, loose-fitting clothing and flip-flops or sandals

• Remove all jewelry before your session

• Wear hair up or use a shower cap (provided if needed)

What to Wear During Tanning
Your comfort is key — choose what works best for you:

• Nude (for no tan lines)

• Thong or disposable underwear (available upon request)

• Swimsuit or old undergarments that you don’t mind staining

Note: Any clothing worn during tanning may absorb cosmetic bronzer, but it usually washes out.

First 24 Hours

• Avoid water, sweating, and skin contact

• No showers, workouts, or lotions

• Wear loose clothing (avoid jeans, sports bras, tight waistbands)

• Do not let pets lick your skin

After Your First Shower
Wait at least 4–6 hours after your tan; waiting a full day is fine

• Rinse with lukewarm water only — no soap

• Pat dry with a soft towel (do not rub)

• Apply a gentle, hydrating moisturizer

• Avoid exfoliating, retinol, or acne products for 5–7 days

To Prolong Your Tan

• Moisturize once or twice daily

• Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water

• Avoid long hot showers, chlorinated pools, and harsh exfoliants

• Use a tan-safe, sulfate-free, alcohol-free body wash
