We’re all about flawless, natural-looking tans — and the secret? It’s all in the prep + aftercare.
Follow these simple steps and we’ll have you glowing like a goddess.
✔️ Exfoliate (gently!)
No need to scrub yourself raw — just a light exfoliation with a
face cloth or mitt is perfect. This removes dry skin so your tan goes on smooth + even.
✔️ Shave or wax 24 hours before
This gives your pores time to close = no dotty tan.
✔️ Moisturise in the days leading up
Hydrated skin = better, longer-lasting tan.
Avoid oil-based products before your tan
They create a barrier = patchy results.
Come in clean + product-free
✔️ No moisturiser
✔️ No perfume
✔️ No deodorant
These can block the tan from developing properly (and yes… deodorant can go green )
✔️ Loose, dark clothing preferably
✔️ No tight straps PLEASE .. ( you’ll thank us later)
✔️ Skip the bra if you can
Tight clothing = marks + lines
Loose = flawless finish
Your tan is still developing when you leave us!
During this time:
Water = streaks. Always.
✔️ Lukewarm water only
✔️ No soap
✔️ Quick rinse
Don’t panic if you see colour washing off — that’s just the bronzer
Want that glow for as long as possible? Here’s how:
✔️ Moisturise DAILY
✔️ Pat skin dry (don’t rub)
✔️ Avoid long hot showers
✔️ Stay hydrated
Your tan should last 7–10 days with the right care
✨ Pro tip:
Our Tan Extend moisturiser is a game changer — it hydrates and subtly tops up your colour.
These will fade your tan FAST:

When it’s time to reset:
✔️ Use our Foaming Tan Remover
✔️ Leave 15–30 mins
✔️ Gently exfoliate
No harsh DIY hacks needed (toothpaste is NOT it )
