Aftercare
Remember:
When you take a shower or a bath you will probably see some color wash off. Don’t worry. This is quite normal as it is only the color guide that the spray tan technician uses when the tan is applied. You will be left with a gorgeous tan.
We have found that the following products will lighten or make an airbrush tan spotty:
Dove soap and Dove products
Hair thinning lotion or removing lotion
Anti-aging products or AHA’s
Beta Hydroxy Acids-salicylic acid
Retin-A type products (Retin-A, Renova, Tazorac, Tretinoin)
Toners containing alcohols or witch hazel
Anti-acne products(Accutane, salicylic acid)
Facial masks and scrubs
Pore cleansing facial strips
Depilatory products
Wax depilatories
Hot tubs, chlorine and salt water
Bleach products for body hair
Bug sprays – try to spray your clothes instead of you. If you must have it on you, spray a “cloud” to go through.
