Prep + Care

LP Suggests

Make all waxing appointments/spa treatments prior to your spray tan

Manicures and Pedicures should be done before your spray tan, BUT if you must get a pedicure- Make sure they do not use exfoliant on your legs!

Shave 24 hours/the night before your tan

Exfoliate 24 hours/the night before your tan

Do not shower and shave right before your tan- this can mess up your pH!

Remove all makeup, lotion, deodorant

Wear loose, dark clothing and open toed shoes. Do not wear socks/tennis shoes.

Continue wearing loose, dark clothing and open toed shoes. Do not wear tennis shoes as they will cause your feet to sweat and mess up your tan.

Wear long sleeves and pants to avoid skin on skin contact!

All tans should last at a minimum of five days.

The more you moisturize, the longer your tan will last.

The more often you shave/use a loofah/use a scrub, the quicker your tan will fade (so avoid these if possible!).

Wear long sleeves and pants to sleep!

Drink PLENTY of water through a straw (will help avoid dripping down chin!)

Try not to sweat for 24 hours after your tan for best results!

No retinol!

Swimming/hot tubs WILL fade your tan so avoid if possible (make sure to get in and out periodically if you do plan on being in them!).

No aerosol sunscreen! Lotion only
