Before & After Tanning Advice
BEFORE & AFTER TANNING (GLO GIRLS)
Before Your Spray Tan
To achieve the best, most even and long-lasting tan, a little preparation makes all the difference. Please follow these simple steps before your appointment or when using our tanning products.
24 hours before your tan
-
Exfoliate your skin thoroughly, paying special attention to elbows, knees, ankles, and feet.
-
Avoid oily scrubs or heavily moisturising products.
On the day of your tan
-
Do not apply deodorant, perfume, moisturiser, or body oils before your appointment.
-
Wear loose, dark clothing and open shoes if possible.
-
Avoid tight straps or elastic that could mark the skin.
Hair removal
-
If you need to shave or wax, please do this at least 24 hours before your tan to avoid patchiness.
Sensitive skin or skin conditions
-
If you have sensitive skin, allergies, or any skin conditions, please let us know before your appointment.
Following these steps will help your tan apply smoothly, look even, and last longer.
After Your Spray Tan
Taking care of your tan after application will help it develop beautifully and last as long as possible.
During the development time
-
Avoid sweating, showering, swimming, or heavy exercise.
-
Avoid touching your skin unnecessarily.
-
Wear loose, dark clothing to prevent rubbing or transfer.
First shower
-
When you shower, rinse with warm water only and gently pat your skin dry with a towel.
-
Avoid using soap, body wash, or exfoliators on your first rinse unless advised otherwise.
To maintain your tan
-
Moisturise daily with a light, oil-free moisturiser.
-
Avoid long hot baths, saunas, or steam rooms.
-
Pat skin dry after showering rather than rubbing.
-
Gently exfoliate after 5–7 days to help your tan fade evenly.
