Preparing for a Sunless Application

Because bronzers only affect the top most layer of the skin, it is best if skin is freshly exfoliated and moisturized prior to applying a product with a bronzer. If skin is dry or flaky, the tanner may experience “spotty” looking results after a day or two.

·Exfoliate skin at least 12 hours prior to sunless tanning application to smooth skin for even tanning results. Spend a little extra time on knees, elbows, feet, and hands.

·Shave at least 6 hours before your sunless tanning session.

·Do not moisturize skin at least 2 hours prior to your sunless tanning session. Lotions can create a barrier, preventing the absorption of sunless tanning solution or product.

·Remove makeup prior to sunless tanning application for best results.

·Wear dark, loose fitting clothes. Sunless solution washes out of most clothing, but a product with immediate bronzer could wipe off on lighter clothing, giving a temporary appearance of discoloration.

·Do not wear wool, nylon, or silk during or after your sunless application and for at least 8 hours as DHA MAY react with these fabrics and cause staining.
