Tanning Preparation
- Exfoliate your skin with PRIMER at least 2 hours prior to sunless tanning application to smooth skin for even tanning results. Spend a little extra time on knees, elbows, feet and hands.
- Shave at least 6 hours before your sunless tanning session. Wax at least 12 hours before.
- Do NOT moisturize skin at least 2 hours prior to your sunless tanning session. Lotions can create a barrier, preventing the absorption of sunless tanning solution and products.
- Remove makeup prior to sunless tanning application for best results.
- Wear dark, loose fitting clothes. Sunless solution washes out of most clothing, but the immediate cosmetic bronzer could wipe off on lighter clothes, giving a temporary appearance of discoloration.
- Do not wear wool, nylon or silk during or after your sunless application for at least 8 hours as bronzer may react with these fabrics and could cause staining.
Looking after your Tan
- After your sunless tanning applications, wait at least 6 hours before you shower. This will allow time for the self-tanning reaction to occur on the skin. Leave overnight if possible.
- Do not moisturize until after your first shower. This could effect the immediate reaction of the sunless solution on the skin and cause streaking.
- Do not swim after your sunless tanning session. Immediate contact with water, chlorine and salt water could effect the immediate reaction of the sunless solution. Also, keep in mind that chlorine and salt water may dry your skin and cause your sunless tan to fade faster.
- Wait at least 6 hours before you exercise. Excessive perspiration could effect the immediate reaction of the sunless solution on the skin.
- Do NOT exfoliate straight away unless there are areas you want to remove. When you do exfoliate, remember to do so gently and evenly to preserve an even, sunless tan.
