Tanning Tips • Prep
Properly prepping for your Bare Skin Bronze Tan will have a huge impact on your results & experience with us.
◈ WHAT TO WEAR DURING
At your spray tan appointment, wear what makes you comfortable. We promote a judgment-free and body-positive atmosphere. You should never feel sorry for your body or appearance.
We suggest:
Nude is the best choice for a full-body spray tan with zero lines.
You can wear a bathing suit, underwear, and/or bra or go nude.
Each session we provide at no extra charge:
Disposable undergarments for men/women (brief and thong options)
Hairnet
Nipple covers
◈ EXFOLIATION
Begin 2 to 3 days before your appointment, or at least 24 hours in advance. Avoid showering or exfoliating on the day of your appointment.
Our BsB EXFOLIATING MITT is specifically designed for the best pre-tan exfoliation.
When the BsB EXFOLIATING MITT comes into contact with wet skin, the friction activates the exfoliation process. As you scrub, the mitt will gradually become wet and continue to exfoliate.
For the best results, we recommend exfoliating at least 12-24 hours before sunless tanning
◈ WAX OR SHAVE
Wax and/or shave 24 hours before spray tanning. Doing these too close to your spray tan session may cause the solution to get caught in your pores or on leftover wax residue.
◈ MANICURE & PEDICURE
Get your mani/pedi 24 hours before your spray tan. Wash off any oils or lotions they put on you as they will act as a barrier against the solution.
⫸ NO LOTIONS OR BEAUTY PRODUCTS ⫷
Keep your skin clean before tanning. Moisturizers, makeup, deodarent and leftover self-tanner can cause an uneven tan. Avoid using highly fragranced products like Dove Soap, Bath & Body Works, and Victoria's Secret before, during, and after your spray tan.
⫸ BOOK 2-3 DAYS BEFORE AN EVENT ⫷
Let your skin absorb the spray tan fully. Give it 2-3 days before events like weddings or photo shoots to ensure a beautiful glow.
⊗ Prep-Cancellation Policy: We do not spray tan over sunburns. For your skin's health, please reschedule if you are sunburned.
⊗ Event or Wedding: We will not spray tan over old tan, including self-tanners. This is for your benefit, as it affects the result. If you haven't prepped properly, please reschedule.
Tanning Tips • development time
✦ DO NOT GET WET or SWEAT
Be careful when you eat or drink
Wear long sleeves/pants around little kids and pets as they can sneeze, drool, drip onto you
Do not wash hands or use sanitizer
Pat or fan sweaty areas
Stay cool and dry during hot days
✦ HANDS
Avoid touching your skin with your hands during the development time. We care for your hands and feet in the spray session, but you need to maintain them while the color develops. If you have to, wash your palms and fingertips gently, but keep the back of your hands and between your fingers dry.
Sleep with long sleeves/pants to avoid orange palms and handprints on the skin
Don’t cuddle your partner/ let them cuddle you as you sleep; (sweating/bronze transfer)
✦RINSE TIME
It might seem reasonable to think that keeping your spray tan on longer will make you darker, but we strongly advise against it. Leaving a spray tan on too long, especially a Rapid tan, can cause uneven coloring with brown or orange patches. Trust our expert advice, as it is based on your specific skin type and condition.
Tanning Tips • Aftercare
Caring for your tan post-visit is crucial for its longevity and vibrancy. Proper maintenance can extend the life of your sunless tan, ensuring a beautiful glow.
◈ SHOWERING
Once you are ready to shower it is important to NOT use soap because the residue could strip and fade the tan unevenly. Take a lukewarm shower to rinse off the bronzer. Use your hands to wash away any extra bronzer. The bronzer will come off, but the color will keep developing! Rinse your underarms, behind your knees, and wrists thoroughly to avoid streaks. Do not use shampoo or body wash for the first rinse.
◈ WHAT TO WEAR AFTER
After your spray tan wear something loose, light and dark in color. Sandals or slides are highly recommended.
◈ HYDRATE
Drink plenty of water. Although it doesn’t seem necessary when spray tanning it is so important to keep your skin hydrated. This will ensure a longer tan that will fade evenly.
◈ MOISTURIZE
Moisturize after your real shower 24 hours later. Use a nice thick moisturizer that doesn’t contain any heavy oils. We really like our BsB Whipped Creme Body Butter that melts into a quick drying oil. HEMPZ also works great!
◈ MAINTAIN
Use any BsB product to maintain your spray tan for the longest wear possible. We carry the best sulphate+phosphate free body wash, tan extenders, and moisturizers; also in conveneint TSA travel sizes ✈
Avoid aerosol sunscreens as they can completely remove your tan. Use only spray tan-safe sunscreens to maintain your color, with cream-based options being the best. Apply and reapply sunscreen before swimming to protect your tan from chlorine and ocean water. Our sunscreens are reef-safe ≈
Do not spray perfume directly onto your skin, instead spray onto clothes first
Avoid brands: Dove, B&BWs, VS. Use products without high fragrances, petroleum, oils, and alcohol. These fade your tan quick and have been known to cause blothy results
