PREP & MAINTENANCE
GUIDELINES ON HOW TO GET THE PERFECT SPRAY TAN
Preparation
24 hours before your session, avoid using bar soaps, high pH shower products or in-shower moisturizers. These products can halt the DHA bronzing reaction or cause the dreaded 'orange' effect.
Any waxing should be done no less than 2 days prior to your airbrush session. If any other beauty treatments are planned - nails, hair, shaving, facials, massages, they too should be done prior to your spray tan appointment.
Exfoliate before each session to remove dead dry skin cells that will prevent the absorption of DHA bronzers into fresh healthy skin cells. Also, spray tanning sunless products onto dry flaky skin will cause the tan to look less natural, uneven when fading and will shorten the life of your tan. For exfoliation we suggesting Norvell's REVIVE Skin Refining Scrub, any time before your tan, but at ideally 24 hours prior, to produce maximum results
For your Appointment
You can wear whatever you are comfortable with, a one-piece or two-piece bathing suit, you can go topless or nude. Bearing in mind that what clothing you do leave on during the application, will leave a tan line. Men are required to wear some form of garment eg. swimming shorts. Some over spray will get on this clothing so we suggest that it is older/darker.
All Jewelry and make-up should be removed (if face is being sprayed) and hair tied back and up off the neck and away from the face.
You will be a little bit sticky for up to an hour after the application, and tight clothing could rub off and smear bronzers during this time, so we suggest you come in or bring some loose clothing with you eg. PJs, sweatpants/sweatshirt in the Winter OR Loose t-shirt and shorts or sundress in the Summer. Also, flip flops, so that the color will not rub off the tops of the feet. Be mindful of the weather, if it is raining, please bring a hooded rain coat, large umbrella and long pants.
After the application, you will need to wait at least 16 hours before you take a regular shower, using product. If you choose the "One" solution, you will do warm water rinse (no product) , pat dry, in 1- 3 hours after the application. If you decide to go with the regular solution, you do not have to do a warm water rinse before your "regular" shower, however, you could after 8 hours, if you so desire.
During this waiting period avoid all other water contact - rain, swimming, sweating, hot tubs etc.
Avoid chemically treated pools or spas for at least 24 hours to prevent color from fading prematurely.
Maintenance
Cleansing: On a daily basis try bathing with Norvell’s pH Balancing Cleanser. This luxuriously foamy cleanser is packed with moisturizing agents that will leave your skin super-hydrated and lusciously scented. It's special formula is sulfate free, unlike regular shower gels and will not strip your skin’s natural amino acids (acid mantel). This will keep sunless color development at it’s best an help hold your tan.
Tan Extend/ Moisturize/Refresh: Typical results last 5- 10 days. You can keep your color longer by applying Norvell's Pro-long Tan Extending Lotion after each shower. This lotion is specifically designed to keep your tan healthy and your skin moisturized while adding a refreshing and renewing glow each day to your sunless tan.
Remember - the more gentle you are with your skin and the better condition your skin is in, will help keep the color longer.
I cannot guarantee tanning results if you use prep and maintenance products that are not Norvell
