Shower, shave, and exfoliate 8-24 hours before your appointment paying special attention to dry, rough skin around knees, elbows, and ankles. Do not apply lotions, perfumes or deodorants. These will act as barriers and could interact badly with the tanning solution. Remove makeup but apply concealer to age spots, freckles, moles, and other spots to avoid darkening them.

Women can choose to tan naked, in a swimsuit or in their undergarments. Men must wear shorts or briefs.

Wear loose dark fitting clothing and flip flops. Do not wear tight fitting clothing (even a bra!) that will rub your tan causing it to develop unevenly.

Some of the bronzer may rub off on your clothing or furniture but it washes out easily.

For most spray tans, you should wait at least 8 hours before you wet your skin, moisturize, or take a shower. For the Rapid Tan, you may choose to shower after 2 hours

Moisturize with an alcohol-free lotion. This will extend the life of your tan.
Avoid exercising or perspiring.
Avoid exfoliating or using bleaching products.
Avoid long, hot showers/baths, hot tubs and pools.
