FAQs
what should I wear to my appointment?
Dark LONG loose fit clothing is best. Avoid wearing bras, tight elastic clothing, socks or anything that might affect your spray tan while it is developing. You want to be comfortable to marinate in that tan until your initial rinse. Bronzer can transfer onto clothing which is why I recommend wearing dark clothing.
what should I exfoliate with?
Avoid using scrubs like tree hut or oil based ones especially the day before as it will lcreate a barrier on your skin. Avoid using a loofa as they tend to hold oils. I recommend purchasing an exfoliating kessa mitt. They are inexpensive, reusable and the best way to get your skin ready for your tan! Exfoliate 24 hours prior to your appointment, NOT the same day.
what is the difference between a standard and rapid tan?
The main difference is rinse time. A standard tan needs to be rinsed off between 8-12 hours. An rapid tan needs to be rinsed between 2-5 hours depending on desired darkness of tan and your skin type. It takes 24 hours for your tan to fully develop so don't be alarmed if you haven't noticed a drastic change in your skin color after your initial rinse. We can decide during your consultation together what the best option is.
how should I prepare for mobile tan?
I will arrive promptly to your location with all equipment and supplies. Please provide a space that can accommodate a 4x4x7 tent that offers adequate lighting and a nearby outlet. A non-carpeted room with air circulation is preferred.
how long will my tan last?
Your tan can last 7-10 days, sometimes two weeks if you follow proper prep and post tan guidelines. I will provide prep guidelines upon booking and after care instructions after your appointment. You can also take a look at them ahead of time under the prep tab.
when should I book my spray tan?
I recommend booking your tan 2-3 days prior to an event to ensure adequate time for rinsing and development. 1 day prior for vacations.
what spray tan safe products I should use?
You want to aim to start using spray tan safe products a week prior to your appointment. I have a product guide that gives different options from budget friendly to luxury. Check it out! Product Guide. I sell body wash, moisturizer and tan extenders that are available to reserve when you book.
