GUIDE

bb tan

EVERYTHING TO KNOW

before you go

The night before your tan (or at least 12 hours prior):
• Exfoliate well (preferrably with the BB exfoliating mitt), shower, and shave
• Light moisturizer is okay up to 12 hours before your appointment

Other beauty services:
• Must be done at least 24 hours before your tan
(waxing, lashes, mani/pedi, massage, laser, etc.)

• Keep your tan completely dry until your first rinse, NO sweating, crying,

dishes, hand washing, etc.

You may feel a little sticky for the first 1–2 hours, that’s normal 
• No tight clothing while your tan develops (no bras, leggings, or anything restrictive)

Skin-to-Skin Contact
• It’s important to keep areas from touching while your tan develops
(neck, elbows, armpits, inner thighs, backs of knees)
• Even while sleeping—opt for long sleeves & pants

At your Appointment:

Arrive with fresh, clean skin

• No lotion, oils, makeup, deodorant, or perfume
• Make sure all conditioner and sweat residue is fully rinsed off

What to Wear:

• Choose to be sprayed however you're comfortable: nude, topless, or bikini

• Keep in mind  anything left on will create a hard tan line
• Loose-fitting, dark, cotton clothing (think comfy pj vibes)
• T-shirt + loose pants or shorts, flip flops or sandals
• Hair up and off your neck
• Jewelry removed

We’ve got you covered with:
• Disposable thongs & hair nets
• Pasties available for $1

Aftercare:

•Avoid long hot soaking, scratching, scrubbing/rubbing. Like saunas, massages, pedicures, hot tubs, long baths/showers. Avoid scrubs and physical exfoliants.

•Shaving is best with a super sharp razor and avoid pressing too hard

•Swimming is fine! Just know long exposure to water and/or chlorine can remove

your tan faster

Avoid products with sulfates (SLS, SLES), Glycolic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Lactic Acid, 

Citric Acid, Alcohol, Retinol, Mineral Oil/Petroleum, Heavy Fragrances

•We suggest BB after care products, or products with ingredients that are sulfate free, ph balanced and hydrating with ingredients like Aloe Vera, Glycerin, Hyaluronic Acid, Coconut oil and Shea Butter​​

Pregnant or nursing? You go momma! As I always say, absolutely consult

your doctor first. But I was sprayed all through my pregnancies as well as

the breastfeeding phases. This solution is one of the most natural organic

kinds out there. 

 

​I know life happens. But after your second cancellation or no-show you will be required to prepay for your appointment slot and it will be non-refundable.

 Your First Rinse:
• Your first rinse will be 2–12 hours after your appointment
• Timing depends on the solution we choose together at your appointment 
• Use lukewarm water (NOT hot)
• No soap. No scrubbing.
• Use your hands to gently rub the skin and remove all bronzer evenly

If you notice streaks after getting out:

• You didn’t rinse enough—get back in immediately and rinse again

• Pat dry (no rubbing)

Important:
• Do NOT shower or shave immediately before your tan
• Avoid Dove, Olay, Bath & Body Works, and bar soaps
• Stay away from petroleum-based products, heavy chemicals, and strong

fragrances—they can disrupt your tan

Recommended:
• We suggest using BB products or Native products
