Nudish Beauty | Spray Tanning

Before you come in for your spray tan, you should…

Complete all other beauty services first (like nails, waxing, facials, and massages)!
Wax 24 hours (or more) before your appointment. Wax can stay on the skin and make it difficult for the tanning solution to hold.
Shower, shave and exfoliate at least 4 hours before your appointment. This gives your pores time to close to avoid discoloration. If you must shower right before your appointment, finish off with a cold rinse to close those pores!
Come to your appointment with clean skin. No lotions or other beauty products.
Bring loose-fitting clothes to change into immediately after your spray tan. (No denim, no yoga pants, no tight bras or underwear.)
Ideally, bring flip flops too.

The Day of Your Spray Tan...

Stay away from all moisture until your first shower. This means no showers, no workouts, no cleaning, no lotions, and no liquid foundations on the skin.
Take your first shower in 4 hours. Until then, wear loose fitting clothing. (No denim, no bras, and no yoga pants.) Ideally, wear a long t-shirt dress.
We know it’s hard, but keep your hands off your hot self. No leg crossing or other skin to skin contact.
Do NOT go more than than 24 hours after your appointment to shower.

Your First Shower After Your Spray Tan:

Be gentle. Use gently warm water, only a natural body wash, and the palms of your hands to rinse surface bronzer off your skin. Avoid harsh scrubbing, hot water, soap bar, and Dove soap. You will see some bronzer wash away – this is normal!
Pat yourself dry, please don’t rub.
Moisturize with an oil-free moisturizer.

The Week Ahead:

To preserve your tan, avoid swimming, long showers, baths, steam rooms, and saunas.
Avoid harsh chemicals such as chlorine, products containing acids, massages, fashion tape, bandages, and anything else that may strip your tan.
Moisturize in the AM and PM with an oil-free moisturizer. From Day 3 onwards, you can use our Tan Extender as your moisturizer.
Don’t exfoliate until you are ready to say goodbye. And, when you are, use an exfoliating mitt to create the perfect canvas for your next tan.
