    5. What to wear to your tan to ensure a flawless result: wear dark, long, & loose fitting clothing. Wear loose, open-toed sandals like flip flops or slip-ons without a heel, or slid on slippers

  • 1. Before First Shower: Avoid touching your skin-do not rest your fingertips on your face or body, & minimize skin-to-skin contact (e.g., cuddling, breastfeeding) to prevent colour transfer. Avoid sweating or any activities that cause moisture on the skin. Wear loose, dark clothing to bed-bronzer may transfer but will not stain. When washing your hands, scrub only your palms.

    2. Showering Instructions:

    Standard Tan: Wait 12-24 hours before your first shower for maximum results. The bronzer will rinse off, but your tan will remain.

    Express Tan: Wash palms 30 minutes after application, pat dry, & moisturize your hands. Shower 3-4 hours after application rinsing with only water-no body wash, shaving, or scrubbing. You may not appear as dark immediately but will continue to develop. Do not exceed the advised time.

    3. Skincare & Moisturizing: Use alcohol-free, fragrance-free lotions twice daily to extend your tan. Avoid face cleansers with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide as they can fade your tan. Avoid products with alcohol, mineral oil, & petroleum. Pat your skin dry after showers-do not rub. Spray perfume on clothes instead of directly on the skin.

    4. Sun Protection & Tan Maintenance: Your tan does not provide sun protection-use alcohol-free sunscreen. When your tan begins to fade, use a Sunnatan exfoliating mitt for an even fade and preparation for your next tan. Extend your tan with Sunnatan sunless tanning extenders or use them for a DIY glow.
