Do not exfoliate or shave on the day of your tan. Shower at least 2 hours before your appointment with an approved body wash or simply rinse with water. Do not apply any products to your skin, including lotions, deodorants, or perfumes. After your shower, refrain from applying body oils, moisturizer, or deodorants to your skin, as this can create a barrier prior to tanning. Remember to bring small black underwear to wear during the tanning session. Also, bring flip flops or open-top shoes, along with dark, loose-fitting clothing to wear after the tan. Avoid wearing jeans, leggings, or tight yoga-style pants, as they may affect the tan's outcome. If you plan to wear shorts or a dress afterward, bring a large towel to place over your car seat to prevent staining.
