Shower, but do not apply moisturizers or oils.

Wear loose dark clothing for your tan, and some loose-fitting shoes, open-toe sandals, or flip flops are preferable as not to disturb the tan.

Wear loose dark clothing after your tan to minimize rubbing against your skin.

Do not shower for at least 8 hours after the tan (we recommend 12 hours)

Do not participate in any activity which may cause perspiration for at least 12 hours after treatment

The guide color can be left on overnight, although it may transfer onto bed linen.
-
Keep skin completely dry, and avoid water contact.
-
Shower rather than a bath, when showering, use a mild soap.
-
Your tan will not give you protection from the sun, therefore use your usual sunscreen.
MAINTAINING YOUR TAN
-
Use body lotion each day after the tan has developed to maintain the color
-
After showering pat the skin dry rather than rubbing

Avoid swimming pools as chlorine can bleach the tan and salt water, as these can reduce your tan.

When shaving uses an electric razor, or a fresh triple or quad blade razor with new blades and plenty of lubrication to minimize spray tan removal.
