Spray Tan
Preparing for your spa tan.
This is the season to be sporting a tan. Just about everyone is chasing the sun’s rays, trying to turn that perfect shade of golden brown. Everyone has their own ideal vision of what the “perfect” tan should look like. Some like their tan to be dark and others just want a little sun-kissed glow.
Fortunately, you can achieve your tanning dreams easily through a spa tan. Tanning at a spa is easy and will give you excellent results. Most people are quite pleased with their spa tans. While different spas do use various ways to get you tan — the most popular is a form of spray tanning. The tan is sprayed onto your body using very small beads of self-tanner all over your body.
You can achieve better results by preparing for your spa tan. As you are paying for a spa tan, it simply makes practical sense to do everything you can to get great results. Your preparation can make your tan more even, have better color and even allow it to last longer! Now who wouldn’t want results like that? Follow these tips and you’ll have a tan that everyone will simply envy.
Exfoliate. We all know that exfoliation is good for your skin. It gets rid of dead skin cells and encourages new ones to come to the surface. If you exfoliate regularly and gently, it will give you a healthy glow. Exfoliating before your tan is beneficial to having your tan show up on your healthiest layer of skin.
Remove the makeup. Most women won’t pick up the morning newspaper by the mailbox without some makeup on. But if you want a great tan, you’ll have to remove your makeup! Bring some makeup remover with you to the spa to take off your makeup. Remember that you won’t be able to re-apply as you leave because the tan is still “setting.”
Take off the jewelry. Oh this is so hard! What woman wants to take off her jewelry? But it is only for a day and for such a good cause: a good tan. Take off your jewelry and you’ll easily get tan in the areas that your jewelry covers. This is just simple practicality. Remember you also don’t want to get self-tanner on your jewelry as you’ll just have to clean it off.
Shave your legs. Before you get your spa tan, take some time and shave your legs, underarms and anything else you want to be sure to have smooth. If you prefer your arms to be smooth and hairless, shave these too. Even just shaving is a very gentle form of exfoliation and you’ll be pleased with the results. Do it the night before.
Wear sunscreen. Once you have a spa tan, remember to put on sunscreen. You will still be exposed to the sun’s rays. Let your tan “bloom” — most often this takes at least a day and sometimes a little more. Then apply sunscreen liberally to every part of your body and face. Protect yourself as you go about your day!
