HOW TO: preparation & spray tanning
Are you an experienced spray tanner or a spray tan novice?
Either way, let's review some of our tips and tricks for getting the perfect spray tan!
Preparation
Tips & Tricks:
01
EXFOLIATION
We recommend exfoliating your skin with a gentle body scrub or a loofa to rid of any dead skin cells. This will help create a smooth canvas for your spray tan!
03
WHAT TO AVOID
For your appointment, please avoid wearing any deodorants, body lotions/creams, or makeup. These items can inhibit the development of your spray tan.
05
WHEN TO BOOK
If you have an event that you are looking to get a spray tan done for, we recommend booking your spray tan appointment for at least two days prior to your event.
​
The spray tan formulas we use at Sunless By Syd last about 6-8 days. If you have multiple events within close timeframe, ask about our Spray Refresh Service.
02
SHAVING
Be sure to shave any unwanted hair at least 1 day prior to your spray tan. Shaving the day of/right before can sometimes cause irritation in the hair follicles.
04
STAY HYDRATED
The days leading up to your spray tan appointment, be sure to hydrate your skin! This can be by a combination of both water intake and body moisturizer. Dry skin is a cause of a quick-fading tan! However, do not wear any moisturizer/body cream to your appointment.
