Things to know before you Spray Tan
Hair Removal
You should shave, wax or laser at least the day before your spray tanning appointment. Leaving it to the same day could cause open pores to become saturated with the tanning solution resulting in tiny brown dots on your legs, underarms, face or wherever you may shave.
Exfoliate
Exfoliate your skin the before your spray tanning appointment. This is to remove any of the dead skin cells on the surface or epidermis layer of your skin. Removing these dead skin cells will help you have a natural even looking even tan, and maintain the spray tan for a longer length of time. You can use a simple loofah/exfoliator to do
Lotions and Potions
It is imperative that you refrain from using make-up, lotions, perfumes and deodorants prior to your spray tanning appointment or remove them before your appointment as these act as barriers to the tanning solution and have been known to cause white spots.
Garments
Please wear either a dark colored swim suit, bikini, boxers, underwear, or trunks to spray tan in. Spray Tanning can be done in the nude if you prefer to have no tan lines. However, those under the age of 18 must wear the appropriate attire to spray tan in. Sorry, no exceptions! If you wish to purchase disposable underwear please ask your technician as they will have a supply with them.
Your appointment
Mobitan will arrive 5-10 minutes before your appointment to set up our equipment. We can either spray tan you outside or inside. We do come with a pop up mobile spray tan tent that can be set-up anywhere you like. It is ideal to spray tan you in your bathroom or a clear open space and the tent is enclosed preventing spray going on any floor coverings and furniture and is water based and washable. We are insured.
After Your Appointment
We do recommend that after your spray tan that you wear loose dark coloured clothing as the initial bronzer tends to rub off on light coloured clothing. We also ask that you do not bath, shower, swim or get wet for at least 12 hours after your spray tanning appointment as this will cause the spray tanning solution to wash off leaving you with streaks and an uneven spray tan.
