Spray tan

A spray tan is a quick and safe way to get a beautiful, sun-tanned complexion-without the harmful UV rays. Afterward, enjoy an even, radiant glow, perfect for that special moment or just to give yourself a boost. Suitable for all skin types and completely free from the risks of tanning or sunbeds.

Who is a spray tan suitable for?

A spray tan is suitable for just about anyone! Whether you have light or dark skin, are young or old-a spray tan can be completely tailored to your skin type and desired complexion. It is ideal for people who:

Wanting a sun-tanned look without harmful UV rays;
Wanting an even complexion without spots or streaks;
Want a healthy glow for special occasions (wedding, party, vacation);
Having trouble getting a tan in the sun;
Want to keep their summer color longer.
In addition, it is also a good option for people with sensitive skin, as the formula of the spray is mild and skin-friendly. If you have specific skin conditions or allergies, it is always good to discuss this with us in advance.

How long does a spray tan remain visible?

A spray tan stays beautiful for an average of 5 to 10 days, depending on your skin type, aftercare and daily routines. The color gradually fades as the top skin cells renew themselves.

Preparation for the perfect spray tan

  1. Exfoliate your skin (24 hours in advance). Remove dead skin cells with a mild scrub or exfoliating glove. This will ensure an even complexion and prevent blemishes.
  2. Shave or wax your skin. Do this at least 24 hours before your appointment. This prevents skin irritation and ensures that the spray tan is absorbed evenly.
  3. Do not wear body lotion, deodorant or perfume on the day. These products can act as a barrier, preventing the spray tan from adhering properly.
  4. Wear loose, dark clothing. Some excess dye may come off after treatment. Tight clothing may also cause streaking.
    Avoid makeup during the treatment.
  5. Make sure your skin is clean and dry so that the product is evenly distributed.

Aftercare for a Long-lasting and Even Spray Tan

  1. Let the spray tan absorb well. Wait at least 8 to 12 hours before showering or swimming. This gives the color time to fully develop.
  2. First shower: lukewarm water, no soap. Rinse your skin with lukewarm water, without soap or scrubs. It is normal for some excess color to wash off-this is just the bronzer, not the final complexion.
  3. Pat your skin dry, do not rub. Use a soft towel and pat your skin dry to keep the color nice and even.
  4. Hydrate daily! Well-hydrated skin holds the tan longer. Use an oil-free moisturizer to slow fading.
  5. Avoid long, hot showers and baths. Prolonged exposure to hot water accelerates skin shedding and thus fading of your tan.
  6. No harsh scrubs or exfoliants. Avoid exfoliating gloves, exfoliating shower gels and products containing glycolic or salicylic acid.
  7. Swimming and sports: in moderation. Chlorinated water and excessive sweating can make the color fade faster. Rinse your skin immediately after swimming and moisturize well.
  8. Sun protection remains important. A spray tan does not contain SPF, so always apply sunscreen when exposed to the sun.
