Pre-Tan Perfection: The Secret to Maintaining Your Spray Tan
When it comes to preparing your skin for a spray tan, avoiding common exfoliation mistakes is key to achieving an even, natural result. By sticking to spray tan-approved products, you can maximize your tan’s appearance and longevity while keeping your skin healthy and glowing!
Why Spray Tan Approved Products Matter?
Maintains Even Absorption: Non-approved products may contain ingredients that interfere with the spray tan formula, leading to streaks or uneven color.
Protects Your Tan: Some products, like those with harsh chemicals or oils, can break down the tanning solution, causing it to fade faster or unevenly.
Prevents Skin Irritation: Approved products are often formulated to work gently with your skin, minimizing irritation before and after your spray tan.
What to Look for in Spray Tan-Approved Products:
No Parabens or Sulfates: These can dry out your skin and harm the longevity of your tan.
Free of Fragrance and Oils: These ingredients can create a barrier on your skin, preventing even absorption.
pH-Balanced Formulas: Products designed to balance your skin’s pH help the tan adhere better and last longer.
Natural or Organic Ingredients: These are often safer for your skin and less likely to interfere with the tanning solution.
Examples of Approved Products to Use:
Exfoliators: Use oil-free and gentle scrubs.
Moisturizers: Look for lightweight, tan-friendly options without clogging ingredients. Ex: parabens, sulfates, fragrances, petroleum, or mineral oil.
Body Washes: Opt for sulfate-free and pH-balanced formulas.
Tanning Extenders: These are specially formulated to enhance and maintain your tan.
