Best Spray Sun Tan Results

By Haywood Hunter


If there is anything that is trendy and desirable, it is a glowing skin that has a beautiful bronze tan. Pale skin is considered unattractive. Getting a tan is as easy as going out to the sun, but this is known to take long before results can be seen. Luckily, there has come spray tanning, where you can get a glowing skin without the hassle. A few basic rules will ensure you get a good spray sun tan.

On the day of your spray tan appointment, do not wear any makeup. Makeup will only prevent the spray sun tan from reaching your face and neck area. The only kind of make up that can be allowed is lipstick and mascara. If possible, try and not wear deodorant on the day you get your spray tan, otherwise you will get some colored patches on your armpits that are quite unattractive.

After getting your spray sun tan, give your skin up to twelve hours before taking a shower. The tanning solution is designed to take about six to ten hours before it is fully absorbed. Bathing before this time will mean that you will wash off some of the solution and thus your tan will be lighter.

Avoid any strenuous exercise that may cause you to sweat. Also, try and avoid swimming or other activities involving water immediately after you get your spray sun tan. Sweat and water will cause the spray sun tan to streak and you will end up having stripes.

For the period you have your spray sun tan, pat your skin dry instead of rubbing. Try not to exfoliate, as it will shorten the life of your tan. Do not shave either, as shaving is a form of exfoliation.

When you get your spray sun tan, do not wear any bronzing product. The tanning solution already has it and the result will be that you will have an ashy brown complexion. For a few hours after getting your tan, wear loose garments. Avoid certain materials like wool, nylon and silk since they stain quite easily from the tanning solution.

Ensure that your beauty therapist is aware of the kind of products that you use on your skin. Some of the facial cleansers, shower bars and perfumes are known to remove the spray sun tan. Your therapist will be able to advice accordingly regarding the products that you use.

Get rid of excess hair before your sun tan, as well as doing an exfoliation. Before getting a spray sun tan for a big day, do a try out session. This will give you and the beautician a chance to assess results and make proper modifications.

Moisturize your skin in order to make your spray sun tan last longer while still looking new. When going out to the sun always wear sunscreen. Sunscreen will keep your skin well protected from sunburn. Overexposure to the sun might also make your skin start reacting to the spray tan and become dry.
