Tan Preparation

Pre Tan Preparation

  • Waxing must be done at least 24 hours prior

  • Exfoliating and shaving 6–24 hours prior is suggested

  • Shower directly before your appointment to remove any beauty products or acidity from the skin

  • Skin must be free from makeup, moisturisers, perfumes and deodorants, as these can alter the results

  • Avoid using products containing SLS, mineral oils, or fragrances prior to your appointment

  • Avoid washing your hair before your appointment

  • Come dressed in loose, dark clothing – cotton is best with minimal stitching

  • Avoid wearing satin, silk, leather or Lycra, as these can affect the tan during application

Post Tan Care

  • Rise off your tan with warm water only for the first shower gently brushing over your body with your hands to ensure all bronzer is recovered evenly​

  • Pat dry your body with a towel after each shower

  • ​Do not moisturise your body until after your second shower to allow the tan to continue to develop to its full depth (takes 16-24 hours)​

  • Avoid chlorine, massages, excessive exercise and saunas within the first 24 hours whiles the bronzer sets in and develops​

  • avoid wearing tight clothing for the first 24 hours (jeans. Tights gym wear) as I can leave marks in the processing stage

  • Avoid using products that contain SLS and mineral oils these can cause tan to fade quickly and alter the colour

  • Our solution does not contain SPF so don’t FORGET to apply sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays​

  •  STAY HYDRATED! 2 litres of water a day and using Bella Bronze Tan Extending Moisturiser does wonders for the longevity of your tan.
